In a fiery post, the president is warning the GOP they’ll be blamed for the shutdown and suffer a setback in next year’s midterms if they don’t trigger the “Nuclear Option!” and restart the government.

In a Truth Social missive, President Donald Trump said Republicans could also lose the White House in 2028 as the shutdown has now tied the record for the longest in U.S. history.

“The Democrats are far more likely to win the Midterms, and the next Presidential Election, if we don’t do the Termination of the Filibuster,” he wrote, saying such a “Nuclear Option” will take the handcuffs off the party, allowing Republicans to pass “Common Sense Policies.”

He hit the “Crazed Democrat Lunatics” for “blocking everything by withholding their votes.”

As it stands now, 60 votes are needed to break the impasse in the U.S. Senate.

Yet, with a 53-47 majority, Republicans could end the shutdown and pass other legislation while they hold the majority if they drop the filibuster.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune has been quoted as saying eliminating the filibuster is something that should be avoided “at all costs.”

Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey’s office told the Herald today that buyouts of $10,000 for full-time employees and $20,000 for anyone already qualified to retire are being mulled as the federal government cuts “billions” from its budget and threatens more as the shutdown has now lasted 35 days.

“Governor Healey has taken action to protect our budget in light of President Trump’s billions of dollars in cuts to Massachusetts, including implementing hiring controls,” said Karissa Hand, spokesperson for the governor. “While President Trump continues to hurt our economy, Governor Healey is considering additional steps to protect taxpayer dollars while continuing the high level of service that the people of Massachusetts deserve.”

In his morning post, Trump added the filibuster could come back to haunt the GOP.

“FOR THREE YEARS, NOTHING WILL BE PASSED, AND REPUBLICANS WILL BE BLAMED,” he stated in all caps.

If the filibuster is dropped, he added, the Republicans will get “EVERYTHING approved, like no Congress in History.”

U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson, from Louisiana’s 4th congressional district, posted this morning that Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is “TERRIFIED” by the “Marxist base” of his party as voters head to the polls today in New York City where socialist Democrat Zohran Mamdani is the front-runner against Andrew Cuomo, running as an independent, and Republican Curtis Sliwa who trails badly in the polls.

“The fact that hardworking Americans are hurting simply because Democrats lack the backbone to stand up to their base is completely DISQUALIFYING,” Johnson posted on X.

Thune remains quiet, so far, this morning.

Schumer, “closely monitoring” the aftermath of a shooting at SUNY Morrisville that injured one person, hit back at the administration over “Americans panicking over insurance and (the) cost of living.” He also called out SNAP funding doubts — saying shutdown tactics treat “hungry Americans as political pawns.”
