Coons: What Brought Us the Shutdown ‘Was the Chaos of Trying to Negotiate with Trump’

COONS: "We should end this government shutdown, but what brought us in to this was the chaos of trying to negotiate with President Trump over a number of important issues. As you well know, Poppy, we've got undone homework here in the Senate we haven’t resolved for months.
