Trump pressures GOP senators to end the government shutdown, now the longest ever
President Donald Trump lashed out at Senate Republicans to end the government shutdown, now the longest ever at 36 days. He blamed the record-breaking impasse on Wednesday for the party’s defeat in the closely-watched elections. And he repeated his demands for Republicans to end the Senate filibuster as a way to reopen the government, though Senate GOP leader John Thune says that's “not happening.” At the same time, Democrats are emboldened by their election wins from Tuesday night's contests and dug in for a fight. Top Democrat Chuck Schumer says the election results “ought to send a much needed bolt of lightning” that the president should meet to end the shutdown. Trump's first term set the previous shutdown record at 35 days.
