Donald Trump Very Ruthless Man Crushing the Federal Employees through Government Shut-down
The real sinister reason for Trump shut down of government is to build a wall with Mexico that his majesty pledged during the 2016 presidential campaign and this will come to bite his butt if he decides to run for president in 2020.

How does Donald Trump's crude, ruthless personality?
First and foremost, Donald Trump is a hustler.
That is what Trump is trying to do.
Trump is trying to use the negative conditions in the States at present to make himself look like a saviour-figure who is able to fight for those who are angry at the status quo and who want change, very much like Hitler in a democratic Germany.
The reason why Trump swore fealty to the GOP was because he knew that trying to sound all sensible and knowledgeable was the hallmark of the social liberal Democrats, and he wouldn't be able to compete against the likes of Hillary and Sanders (even as he cribs and rehashes their ideas to suit his needs). Using the Republican party as a front was a good way for Trump to get out there and get himself heard - if he campaigned as a Dem or a non-aligned party it would be hard for him to be heard at all.
Government shutdown brings hardship for federal workers
David Kirsh is required to continue his work as an airway transportation systems technician at the Hartsfield-Jackson air traffic control tower as an essential employee amid the partial government shutdown, but he’s not sure when his next paycheck will come.
President Donald Trump has vowed to shut down the government if Democrats do not agree to include billions of dollars in funding for a border wall in the spending bill by the end of Friday.
If the shutdown does happen, it will be a partial one, because Congress has already allocated funds to about 75 percent of federal offices. Trump has previously signed legislation for nearly $900 billion of the $1.2 trillion total in operating expenses for the federal government. Even so, a partial shutdown would still affect hundreds of thousands of federal employees.
Government employees in departments considered essential would be required to work during the shutdown and would not be paid until the end of the shutdown or legislation gets passed for retroactive pay. That would pertain to about 420,000 workers, including those serving in the Department of Homeland Security—54,000 border patrol staff and 53,000 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement workers.
The total figure includes more than 41,000 correctional and federal law enforcement officers serving with the Drug Enforcement Agency, the FBI, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, according to Democrats on the Senate Appropriations Committee. The shutdown would also impact 53,000 Transportation Security Administration agents and 42,000 Coast Guard workers.
As many as 5,000 Forest Service firefighters and 3,600 National Weather Service forecasters will also keep working without paychecks.
‘Nothing short of inhumane’: Union sues Trump administration over shutdown
A federal employees union filed a lawsuit Monday against the Trump administration, alleging that the partial government shutdown is illegally forcing more than 400,000 federal employees to work without pay.
The partial shutdown began Dec. 22.
Since then, many federal agencies have temporarily closed and delayed worker compensation indefinitely. Even so, employees deemed “essential” or “excepted” have been expected to come to work. The suit asked that the named plaintiffs and others with the same classification be paid owed wages.
According to court documents, “essential” government employees are those “performing emergency work involving the safety of human life or the protection of property.”
Often, lead attorney Heidi Burakiewicz said, the roles are dangerous, yet necessary to a well-functioning
