During his āKeeping Them Honestā opener on Friday, CNNās Anderson Cooper hammered billionaire PresidentDonald Trump for claiming that the 800,000 federal workers who are going without a paycheck are okay with it, even though they have bills to pay and children to feed.
āThe president of the United States, who is a billionaire, says the 800,000 people who arenāt getting paid because of the government shutdown are okay with that,ā Cooper began. āāJust ask them,ā he says. He also says he thinks their landlords will be okay with them not paying the rent
He continued on: āThose are just a couple of takeaways from his press conference on the shutdown. Keeping them honest, that and some other things he said today deserve a closer look because of what they say about a chief executive who is asking others to make sacrifices for him to go without pay, perhaps, he says for months.ā
Then later in his opening monologue, Cooper returned to the unpaid workers.
āLater in the program, you will meet some people who are not getting paid right now,ā he said. āThey have bills to pay, credit cards, groceries as well. Health insurance, mortgage payments, the rent.ā
āThe president has words for them, too,ā Cooper stressed. āLet them eat wall.ā
