US Government Shutdown Nears Record
The ongoing US government shutdown is set to become the longest in the country's history, with no compromise in sight between Democrats and Republicans.
President Donald Trump appears to be unbothered by the shutdown, while Democrats remain firm on their healthcare funding-related demands, refusing to surrender.
- The shutdown is nearing a record, with neither side willing to make a compromise.
- In 2018, Trump yielded to public and political pressure to end a 35-day shutdown, but no such efforts are apparent this time.
Democrats maintain that any compromise on these fundamental demands will be mean a surrender
Author's summary: Shutdown may break Trump's record.
