What was the reason for the controversy?
The interaction came weeks after a standoff between congressional Democrats led by Pelosi and Trump and led to a partial government shutdown that lasted for more than a month.
As Trump demanded to fund a border wall, Pelosi insisted negotiations must occur while the government was open. Even though the short-term funding bill included no money for his border wall, Trump ultimately agreed to temporarily end a 35-day government shutdown in late January.
On the 20th day of the Shutdown, Nancy said,
“Federal workers will not be receiving their pay checks and what that means in their lives is tragic in terms of their credit rating, paying their mortgage, paying their rent, paying their children’s tuition and the rest.
The president seems to be insensitive to that.
He thinks maybe they could just ask their father for money, but they can’t. They can’t.”
