Mr. President. The American people are the ones paying the price for the intransigence, the stubbornness and the idiocy. That's what Chuck Schumer once called government shutdowns. He called it idiocy. The American people are paying for the idiocy of the Democrats who continue to vote against reopening the government. Is that I kind of wonder, what do they say to a mother who can't feed her own child because of their intransigence and their stubbornness? Sorry for the inconvenience. (07:31–07:38)
