The MSNBC host reacted after Donald Trump and Elon Musk threw Congress into chaos days before Christmas.
MSNBC’s Jen Psaki offered a blunt message as she looked ahead to next year’s government in the wake of Wednesday’s Donald Trump-induced mess in Congress: “Buckle up, everyone!”
“This is what it’s going to look like,” the former White House press secretary predicted on “Morning Joe” Thursday.
The president-elect on Wednesday threw a major spanner into a bipartisan spending bill negotiated by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), rejecting the deal and sending lawmakers scrambling as a deadline looms to keep the government open past Friday.
Trump spoke up after billionaire ally Elon Musk went on a social media spree against the package.
“Yesterday, the feeling in Washington was, this is done,” Psaki said. “It was a bipartisan agreement. This is done. Everyone’s packing up their offices, making their Christmas travel plans. And all of a sudden, it wasn’t done.”
