of the December 11th Oval Office meeting with Pelosi and Schumer in which Trump said/boasted he takes complete responsibility for government shutdown and be running the ad nationally nonstop. No "high road". The shutdown was caused and occurred under a Republican-controlled Congress with a Republican squatter in the Oval Office. The shutdown is totally on the Republicans. Of course now, the Democrats will be left to clean up the mess when they take over on January 3rd.
