Senator Chuck Schumer

He was playing his games.

You know, he put these Make America Great red hats on the desk.

Of course we didn't put them on.

Well, I think so.

He didn't say that, but he had some aide come over and put them on his desk.

All of that and all of that.

But here was the interesting thing.

When we told him how bad this crisis was, how people's health care costs would dramatically rise so they'd have to lose health care, he said, that's going to be bad for me.

I think it was the first time by his body language, et cetera, that he –

realized how bad the crisis would be.

And he is going to see that more and more and more because we can get into this.

Over this month, people are getting from their insurance companies notices of how much their premiums will go up.

I just make one other point, if I might.

When I was majority leader, we had no shutdowns.

We did 13 different budgets.

Why didn't we have shutdowns?

Because I sat down with the Republicans and I said, look, no one's going to get everything they want.

Let's come together and make an agreement.

And that's how budgets are passed.

And that's what happened.
