Trump threatens with household chaos: Will the shutdown really reality?

Trump threatens with household chaos: Will the shutdown really reality?

in Washington there is great unrest because the designated President Donald Trump wants to enforce a new draft for a transitional budget in the US congress. Trump explained on his Truth Social platform that such a plan could protect against government business. The Republican described the plan as a "very good" agreement and asked both parties to adopt it immediately to avoid a shutdown. If the congress does not pass a legal text by Friday, numerous state institutions could hire their work and there could be many state employees without payment for the time being, such as radio herford reported.

Trump torpedoed in a critical step of adopting a budget draft already negotiated with the Democrats by asking the MPs of his party not to agree to the planned law. This instruction could increase the risk of a full standstill by the government. Trump has confirmed his intention that the Republicans should negotiate the debt limit before taking office, instead of postponing the discussion to later. Another important point is that the proposal includes a billion -dollar aid package for areas affected by hurricanes. But the democratic minority leader in the House of Representatives, Hakeem Jeffries, criticized the new draft as "laughable" and warns of extreme forces within the Republican Party that could risk a government of the government, according to Süddeutsche Zeitung .

The political climate is tense, because the longest shutdown in the history of the United States took place during Trump's first term when he brought parts of the government to a standstill for more than five weeks because of the financing of a wall at Mexico. The current conflict over the transitional budget could result in a similar fate if the agreement between the parties does not come about as soon as possible.
