Recommended VideosOld footage of Trump from before even his first presidency is currently going viral on X amid the current shutdown. A compilation of Trump suggesting that the president should always get the blame seems to directly contradict his current attitude. In another clip from 2013, Trump can be heard saying “problems start from the top,” before suggesting the current president, Barack Obama, be fired.

Trump is the leader and that means he needs to take some responsibility, to blame anybody else is madness.
