Rep. Chip Roy criticized Democrats during Day 20 of government shutdown, calling party’s embrace of «No Kings» rallies against President Donald Trump political cover.
Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, tore into the Democratic Party during House GOP leaders’ press conference on Day 20 of the government shutdown after anti-Trump protests swept the country over the weekend.
He blasted the left’s embrace of the «No Kings» rallies, where millions of people across the U.S. took to city streets to protest President Donald Trump.
«This is the dying breaths of a bankrupt party, in my humble opinion, all too happy to shut down the government», Roy said during the press conference Monday.
He and House Freedom Caucus Chair Andy Harris, R-Md., joined House GOP leaders’ daily shutdown press conference in a show of unity across the Republican conference.
«No one disputes one obvious fact: It is Democrats who have chosen not to fund government.
