“I Think We’re Headed to a Shutdown” – Vance SLAMS Schumer, Democrats For Trying to Hold Americans Hostage to Fund Healthcare for Illegal Aliens (VIDEO)

Top Democrat and Republican lawmakers met with President Trump and Vice President JD Vance to discuss a stopgap bill that will avert a government shutdown.
Two stopgap bills have stalled in the Senate over the last two weeks because Democrats are blocking President Trump’s agenda.
The government will shut down on Wednesday because the Democrats are seeking $1.5 trillion in spending that will fund healthcare for illegal aliens and sex reassignment surgery for children.
Democrat Minority Leader Chuck Schumer came out of the meeting on Monday claiming he tried to guilt-trip President Trump by bringing up a child with cancer.
“I told him how I met a mother who was crying because her daughter has cancer…and what has happened with healthcare with what they have done, she’s gonna watch her daughter suffer and maybe die. And he seemed to understand the magnitude of this crisis,” Schumer said.

Vice President JD Vance came out of the meeting and slammed Schumer and Democrat lawmakers in remarks to reporters outside of the White House.
“I think we’re headed to do a shutdown because the Democrats won’t do the right thing,” Vance told reporters.
“Democrats want a $1.5 trillion spending package that funded free health care for illegals. We told them that was absurd, and now they’re willing to shut down the government over it. It’s unacceptable,” he said.
“You will hear a lot from Democrats about the fact that American health care policy is broken…every single thing that they accuse about being broken about American health care is policy that Democrats have supported for the past decade,” Vance said as Speaker Mike Johnson nodded in agreement.
“So if they want to talk about how to fix American health care policy, let’s do it. I’d love to do it. The Senate Majority Leader would love to do it. Let’s work on it together, but let’s do it in the context of an open government that’s providing essential services to the American people. That’s all that we’re proposing to do, and the fact that they refuse to do that shows how unreasonable their position is,” Vance added.
