Rep. Tim Ryan (D-Ohio) on Wednesday ripped President Trump over his negotiations with Congress as the partial shutdown stretched into its twelfth day, saying the U.S. is being governed "from Rush Limbaugh's studio in South Florida."
Speaking on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," Ryan accused the president of offering deals to lawmakers behind closed doors before rescinding them in view of news cameras.
"We're dealing with someone who is dishonest," Ryan said of Trump. "You could make a deal in a room with a handshake and by the time he's out of the room the deal's over, he's in front of the camera."
"And let's just put this all in perspective," the Ohio congressman continued. "The main problem here is he's worried about the investigation that's breathing down his neck right now. So his only goal is to appeal to Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham and Rush Limbaugh."
