Hours of intense discussions to reach an agreement on President Donald Trump’s nominations exploded Saturday night, and lawmakers are already returning home.

Senate Republicans and Democrats were quick to blame each other for the deal’s failure, but it was ultimately Trump who ended the talks.

In a lengthy post on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump accused Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., of “demanding over One Billion Dollars to approve a small number of our highly qualified nominees.”

“This demand is egregious and unprecedented, and would be embarrassing to the Republican Party if it were accepted. It is political extortion, by any other name,” Trump said. “Tell Schumer, who is under tremendous political pressure from within his own party, the Radical Left Lunatics, to GO TO HELL!”

“Do not accept the offer,” he continued. “Go home and explain to your constituents what bad people the Democrats are, and what a great job the Republicans are doing, and have done, for our Country. Have a great RECESS and, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”

Instead of finding a way to vote on up to 60 of the president’s nominees, all of whom passed through committee with bipartisan support, senators quickly voted on seven before leaving Washington until September.

But Schumer saw Trump’s move as a victory for Senate Democrats. He argued that the president abandoned negotiations while he and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., sought a bipartisan solution, “provided the White House and Senate Republicans met our demands.”

“He took his ball, he went home, leaving Democrats and Republicans alike wondering what the hell happened. Trump’s all-caps Tweet said it all. In a fit of rage, Trump threw in the towel, sent Republicans home, and was unable to do the basic work of negotiating,” Schumer said, standing next to a poster-sized version of the president’s post.
