President Donald Trump is likening the federal Government shutdown to a “kamikaze attack.”
Trump spoke those words during a press conference with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney Tuesday, Newsweek reported.
Trump responded to the question, “What’s your message to Democrats ahead of the next vote to open up the government?”
The president said the Democrats are to blame for the shutdown, accusing of being “like insurrectionists.”
“They’re the ones that started it. It’s almost like a kamikaze attack by them,” Trump said. “You want to know the truth? This is like a kamikaze attack.”
Watch:
The shutdown has wreaked havoc by freezing nonessential services, closeling national parks and causing disorder at airports.
