It’s Day 35 of the US Government shutdown and an end is nowhere in sight. However, Donald Trump and his Republican cronies are proving just how out of touch they are with the realities of how the shutdown is affecting the real lives of real people.

Current Events
Currently, 800,000 federal workers are victims of the US Government shutdown and are missing their 2nd payday as of today. Most of those workers have been living paycheck to paycheck and are now finding themselves facing eviction from their homes and in line at food banks just to feed their families.

However, Trump and his people oddly believe this is all just a harmless game that will eventually blow over.

For example, White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett said last week that furloughed federal workers who are not getting paid during the partial government shutdown are “better off” because they’re getting a free vacation now and not having to waste vacation days later.

Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said this week he doesn’t understand why federal workers are going to homeless shelters for food when they could simply “take out a loan” to make ends meet.

Then, Trump daughter-in-law Lara Trump called the so-called hardships by federal workers “…a little bit of pain” that workers will eventually agree is a good thing “for the future of our country.”

Talk about out of touch.

For anyone who’s unclear about how this US Government shutdown is affecting real people in a very real way, just take a look at the heartbreaking video below.
