What big move did Trump make the day after the US government closed?

On Sunday (2 1) local time, the second day after the US government closed, the party and the Democratic Party were still blaming each other and made no progress in ending the deadlock. Trump came up with a "big move" that day, calling on * * * and party members to use the "nuclear option" (that is, * * * and party members use their "simple majority" power to modify the rules of procedure) to resolve the deadlock.

According to American news, the House and Senate of the United States Congress resumed their work on the afternoon of February1,but after a day of futile work on the 20th, the possibility of making progress on February1is slim, unless Trump agrees to deal with the bills related to the DACA plan, so as to ensure that 700,000 people dream of their future destiny. However, US Vice President Burns made it clear that negotiations on "illegal immigrants" will not be restarted until the government reopens its doors.

On the afternoon of 2 1, Senate Majority Leader McConnell urged the Democratic Party to support the short-term spending bill. He said: "The government shutdown will get worse tomorrow, and today is a good day to end it. This closure is a major political estimation error and cannot continue. "

Senate Minority Leader Schumer accused the party-controlled White House and Congress of intransigence. Schumer said that the completely ruling * * * and the party failed. However, Republican Senator Graham said that it is very likely to pass a short-term budget on the evening of 2 1 to prevent the government from continuing to close.

The White House, Republicans and Democrats spent most of the 20 th discussing the attribution of responsibility, trying to pass on the political responsibility of the government shutdown to others.

2 1, the white house called on the Senate and Republicans to change congressional rules and resolve the funding deadlock. Trump even pushed Senate Majority Leader McConnell to invoke the so-called "nuclear option", thus eliminating the role of Senate Democrats.

Trump said on Twitter, "It's nice to see * * * and Republicans fighting for the security of our troops and borders. Democrats just want illegal immigrants to enter our country without inspection. If the deadlock continues, * * * and Republicans should use 5 1% (nuclear option) to deal with the long-term budget. "

Ma Wani, director of the Bureau of Management and Budget, said that removing obstacles is a way to end the government lockout. He said: "There are many different ways to solve the problem. We just want to fix it. "

It is reported that the Senate plans to hold a procedural vote on the short-term expenditure bill to fund the government to run until February 8 at 1 pm local time on the 22nd (2 pm Beijing time). The Senate stipulates that 60 votes are needed to break the deadlock, but the Republican Party only has 5 1 vote. That means they need nine more votes to break the deadlock. The White House called for amending the rules and adopting the "nuclear option" of simple majority, so that only 5 1 vote is needed to break the deadlock.

The American media believe that canceling the 60-vote threshold will deprive minority parties of their rights, and most political party leaders usually do not choose to do so. Because they are worried about the consequences of becoming a minority party.

Mawani said that another way to end the government lockout is to gain the support of Democrats. He said that this will make those Democrats who want to go home vote for resolving the deadlock, but they are unwilling to do so.

Last April, McConnell used the "nuclear option" and was nominated by Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch.
