Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer warned Tuesday in front of the White House that there will be a government shutdown if President Donald Trump refuses to budge from his demand for $5 billion of wall funding. He spoke after the tense meeting with President Trump.
The bottom line is simple. The President made clear that he wants a shutdown. His position, if he sticks to his position for a $5 billion wall, he will get no wall and he will get a shutdown. The bottom line is very, very simple. That is, we want border security. We offered him border security. But Americans know that the wall, not paid for by Mexico anymore, is not the way to border security.
Schumer insisted that Democrats "have offered" border security funding and warned of what he and Pelosi have termed a "Trump shutdown."
"This Trump shutdown, this temper tantrum that he seems to throw, will not get him his wall and will hurt a lot of people," Schumer said.

Shut it down.
Drain the swamp.
Starve the beast.
15% surcharge on remittances to Mexico.
Entire border wall will be paid for inside of two years.
JUST DO IT...
EXACTLY what other plan for Border Security have the Dems offered?
Seems to me they only holler about what Trump wants to do.
Great! Many, many government “workers” don’t do anything productive...many are malignancies on civil society. Close it down...and never pay them thereby not making it yet another paid vacay.
Hilarious that he kept calling her Nancy.
Nancy, Nancy, Nancy.
She does look like she’s going bald.
Schmucky Chucky’s idea of “border security” is to make all the illegals secure as they flood into the country.
I keep wondering why Schmucky Schumer was even there. In case Noodle brain Nancy lost her words?
I think it was stolen, not rightly given.
Yes, I think the DEMs dowant illegals for future votes.
But I also think that the drug lords have put the Dems on their payrolls. The drug lords don’t want a wall. Therefore, neither do Pelosi or Schemer.
IMHO, an “audit” by the FBI (and CIA) of just how Pelosi and Schemer became so rich is past due.
Trump should announce the wall just got 10 feet higher and proceed to have it built.

Totally agree. If it weren't for government, talentless, petulant, self-absorbed and destructive pinheads like Schumer and Pelosi would have had a hard time making a living. They've done almost nothing constructive with their lives, and their narcissism and what they are pushing may actually destroy our nation and way of life.
I saw her baldness too. New name and title “Her Baldness Nasty Pelousy.
Some men are such smarmy bitches.
I don’t understand why Trump is requesting “only” $5B.
Why not go for the whole enchilada - $20B...or at least $10B.
Regardless of the amount, the fight will be the same.
The main problem is some beach bathrooms are locked.
Yes.
It’s incredible what Trump has put up with.
I hope he declatest martial law and dissolves Congress!!!!
