The Pentagon went into surplus funds, and we'll be able to make the paychecks.

I believe that the Democrats will come to their senses soon.

A big title.

And no kings equal no paychecks.

We are paying our military today.

The Pentagon went into surplus funds and will be able to make the paychecks.

If, in fact, they are waiting for this no kings protest, you know, no kings means no paychecks, no paychecks and no government.

And Maria, I think the dirty secret here for why this is dragged on for so long is the Democratic friends in the mainstream media have been downplaying the shutdown.

It's starting to affect people's lives.

But the Chinese have unfortunately turned our soybean farmers into pawns.

They're trying to manipulate them and our farmers overwhelmingly back President Trump.

They know that he has their back and we can't implement the programs.
