Then he started tweeting

THANK YOU SENATOR WARREN FOR SPEAKING OUT!
WE CAN'T ALLOW CONTINUED CHILDISH THREATS OF A GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN TO JEOPARDIZE THE ECONOMY & OUR NATIONAL CREDIBILITY! 

THIS INCLUDES TRUMP'S TEMPER TANTRUMS THAT CAUSED THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN IN 2018-2019 (it's lengthy):

 During the contentious discussion, Trump remarked, "I am proud to shut down the government for border security ... I will be the one to shut [the government] down. I'm not going to blame you for it ... I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down." Schumer replied, "We shouldn't shut down the government over a dispute."^[29] Ten days later, Trump blamed Democrats for the impending shutdown.<sup>[30]

On December 19, the Senate passed a second continuing resolution (H.R. 695) that would fund the government until February 8, 2019. Pelosi announced that House Democrats would support the measure, meaning it would overcome opposition from conservative Republicans and pass the House.[33] On December 20, following increased criticism from conservative media, pundits, and political figures,[34][35] Trump reversed his position and declared that he would not sign any funding bill that did not include border wall funding. The same day, the House passed a continuing resolution that included $5 billion for the wall and $8 billion in disaster aid.[8] This bill failed in the Senate.[36] Trump's changing position caused consternation among Senate Republicans.[34][37]</sup> 

2018-19 GOVT SHUTDOWN

Last time I checked, nobody voted for Elon Musk to run the federal government. But this week, he seemed to think that was his job. And Donald Trump appeared to agree with him. You see, House Republicans negotiated with Democrats in Congress a plan to keep the government open. But then Musk started tweeting about how it was a bad deal. Then Trump trailed along later to say he was on the same page. And House Republicans fell in line. In their next plan, they got rid of proposed funding for research on pediatric cancer, early detection of cervical cancer and breast cancer, and children with Down Syndrome. All while the GOP gets ready to hand more tax breaks to billionaires and giant corporations in the new year. Because of this last-minute scrambling, they brought the federal government to the brink of a shutdown in the middle of the holiday season. And they made it clear that Musk is wielding a tremendous amount of unearned power in Washington. As he continues whispering in Donald Trump’s ear as the “unofficial co-president” (that’s how the Washington Post put it), the American people have a right to know whether his advice would help the whole country or just line his own pockets. Because let’s remember: Musk is still CEO of several companies with significant interests before the federal government. Tesla has gotten nearly $42 million in government contracts to provide electric vehicles and services to the government. SpaceX has received nearly $20 billion in government contracts. And his companies have been the subject of at least 20 recent federal investigations or reviews. So as Musk attends to his duties co-running the “Department of Government Efficiency,” is he thinking through ways to best serve the American people — or trying to make his companies richer and end investigations into his work? These are glaring conflicts of interest. I’ve called on the Trump transition team to make Musk follow the same ethics standards they’ve set for other officials. Add your name if you agree that the same rules ought to apply to the richest man in the world as he appears to steer government policy. I will keep working to hold the incoming Trump administration accountable and hold the line against a far-right agenda that would reward the rich and powerful. I know you’re in this fight too — and I’m grateful. Thanks for being a part of this, Elizabeth

How much will Americans get to know about the people Donald Trump is choosing to run the U.S. government? In the absence of any real vetting the way it's usually done, Rachel Maddow presents a Rachel Maddow Show Public Servant Announcement to hopefully help fill that gap. In this episode, Rachel takes a closer look at Trump's choice for director of national intelligence, former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, who has a deep history of anti-gay activism and a disturbing amount of support from Russian state media. » Subscribe to MSNBC:    / msnbc   » Subscribe to MSNBC on TikTok   / msnbc   » Subscribe to MSNBC on Instagram   / msnbc   Download our new MSNBC app for the latest breaking news and daily headlines at a glance: https://www.msnbc.com/information/dow...
