And he obviously believes it's up to him to call the shots even though he's still a private citizen.

Offer accepted. Of course this will be a REAL shutdown. None of that “essential services” shit. You want to know what it’s like without “big government?” Here you go.

By the way, Trump, work stops on your inauguration. If fact, cancelled! No time. So sorry.
