Apparently.

Today:

Congressman Mark Alford
[March 31, 2026]

Democrats left TSA workers without pay. President Trump stepped in and got them paid.
Now airport lines are moving again—and Americans are seeing the difference. The left must stop playing games, fund DHS & end the chaos.
[….]

A day early. Heh.

Some of the responses to Mark Alford (r):

Why didn’t Trump do this earlier?

He can only take Emergency action when it becomes an actual emergency.

Cool. So only a week in was not an emergency? Calling in ICE was not an emergency?

The Republicans kept voting to not pay the TSA workers, the congressman from Missouri speaks with a crooked tongue.

Republicans voted against paying them 7 times.
Still not requiring ICE ro follow normal police procedures.

Now that’s funny Mark!

“Solved” the problem that he caused. It’s the equivalent of praising your teenager for totalling their car but doing a great job finding a new one.

weird…the democrats have controlled 0 branches of government in the last 12 months. Therefore…it can’t be their fault??? Weird.

Funny that.

Trump caused the problem.
Trump solved the problem.
Trump is the hero! 🙄

So he had the ability to do that the whole time¿¿

Solving a self created problem, nice.

Problem created and then announced solved. It isn’t solved…you people aren’t working together. Every day it gets more ridiculous.

The Democrats had nine different legislative proposals for funding TSA don’t lie

asking these GOP Congressmen not to lie isn’t possible..every post is a lie with them

He could of done that weeks ago but he chose to let them suffer, just like Republicans did the eight times they voted against a bill to pay TSA workers.

yep, because Trump is the biggest drama queen

So he could have payed them the entire time?

he was trying to use them as a threat to bully the Dems into passing the SAVE Act which hands elections over to his fed govt—so they “never lose again” as he said

And you are on a 2 week vacation.

Lmao 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 soooooo He is a hero for doing something he could have done in the beginning

He gets a participation trophy, too.

Great job solving the problem you caused.

Why didn’t he do that to begin with?🤡

Thou shalt not lie.

When did control of the White House, Congress and the Senate shift to the Democrats?

Wow … he keeps solving the problems he creates

Please tell me how it was the democrats. What were republicans willing to negotiate on? I’m seriously curious, because I only heard what the democrats put forth to come to some resolution, I haven’t seen what the republicans put forth.

Cause a problem, temporary fix the problem, claim a victory. The maga way

So he could have done this the whole time, instead used TSA workers as pawns in political theater and you think that makes him admirable?
