Trump has beaten his own record of incompetence. It's day 37 of the government shutdown. Just yesterday, Donald Trump said the shutdown is killing Republicans. Governor Glenn Youngkin said [the shutdown] contributed to their election losses.

Donald Trump has illegally fired public servants across the country. (00:10–00:14)
