In an interview with the online conservative TV show Bold TV, Lara Trump, the daughter-in-law to President Trump did her best Marie Antoinette impersonation where it concerned federal workers affected by the #TrumpShutdown:
We get that this is unfair to you, but this is so much bigger than any one person. It is a little bit of pain, but it’s going to be for the future of our country and their children and their grandchildren and generations after that will thank them for their sacrifice right now.
I know it’s hard, I know they have bills to pay, they have mortgages, they have rents that are due, but the president is trying every single day to come up with a good solution here and the reality is it’s been something that has gone on for too long and gone unaddressed. I would just tell them, please stay strong, we appreciate everything that you’re sacrificing, we’re behind you and we are going to do everything that we can, I know the president is doing everything he can to resolve this quickly.
This is exactly about one person - President Trump. It was he who inflicted all of this and boasted he would be proud to shut down the government and to do so for months, if not years. Trump has no intention of resolving this quickly.
Of course, Lara Trump is feeling no pain whatsoever. She never need worry about coming up with the money necessary to pay bills, mortgages or rent. I very much doubt the children and grandchildren of furloughed federal workers are going to thank them for losing their home so the President can erect a wall. Her words are of no consequence and are most unwelcome. She might as well have said, "Let them eat hamberder."
