Bartiromo also addressed the intense interview during her show, Mornings With Maria on Fox Business. She mentioned that she was rethinking her opposition to Gaetz’s willingness to risk a partial government shutdown as a means to control government spending.
Gaetz shared a video clip of his comments, stating, “When confronted with our argument on government spending, most smart and open-minded people will convert. Welcome aboard, @MariaBartiromo. Thank you for having me on your program. Tough questions and direct answers will lead us to the truth faster than sophistry. The Plan: • Single Subject Spending Bills • No CR • Hold the line”
