If it stretches into Saturday, the shutdown will be the longest in U.S. history.

McCain addressed our leaders, calling for “no more walking out, no more posturing for the cameras!”

She also said in order to move toward a resolution, we must avoid “saying it’s all Trump’s fault.”

And I don’t think Donald Trump knows how that feels.”
