Bad Quote by Mick Mulvaney

“I think the government, if you measure it in terms of the dollars out the door, about 83 percent of the government stays open in a government shutdown. Social Security checks go out; military still exists. The FBI still chases bad guys. I think the consequences have been blown out of proportion.” quote by Mick Mulvaney — Download Open image
