The US government might shut down soon because President Donald Trump and top Democrat Chuck Schumer can’t get along. They’re supposed to meet this week to try to work things out, but with only days left before the September 30 deadline, things don’t look good.
Trump and Schumer’s relationship has gotten much worse over the past year. They can barely work together anymore. Democrats want to keep health care subsidies that help people pay for insurance. Republicans just want a simple bill to keep the government running for seven more weeks.
