4:52Now PlayingPresident Donald Trump threatened mass firings of federal workers as the US hurtles toward a shutdown with Democrats and Republicans at an impasse over funding the government.
“We may do a lot and that’s only because of the Democrats,” Trump said in response to a question about the number of government employees who could be dismissed during a shutdown. The White House last week directed agencies to draw up plans for widespread firings if the government closed down. So far, no agencies have explicitly called for terminations in their shutdown plans. Henrietta Treyz, Managing Partner and Director of Economic Policy at Veda Partners breaks down what this will mean for the jobs report due on Friday.
