W.H.: Dems Should Stop Making Our Troops and Gov’t Function Pawns in Their Swamp Games

EXCERPT:

HUCKABEE SANDERS: "Eight days from now funding for essential government operations will run out. Unfortunately, Democrats are continuing to refuse fund our troops and other important national security priorities that keep our people safe. Some Democrats are beginning to realize how irresponsible this is. Just yesterday, Senator Whitehouse said that funding the government should not be tied to immigration and they should be separate issues. Threatening a government shutdown like that would be, in his words, counterproductive. What's interesting about this is that it is the position most Democrats, including Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer, held right up until the moment Donald Trump became president. Democrats should stop making our brave troops and essential government functions political pawns in their swamp games. They should stop their obstruction and work with Republicans to fund the government."
