WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump stepped back Monday from demanding a down payment for his border wall in must-past spending legislation, potentially removing a major obstacle to a bipartisan deal just days ahead of a government shutdown deadline.
Trump told a gathering of around 20 conservative media reporters Monday evening that he would be willing to return to the wall funding issue in September, according to two people who were in the room. They spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the get-together, which was not originally intended to be on the record.

1) there is already $ in the system for the wall. Course, you know that and bad Trump every chance you get.
2) POTUS/Homeland/JusticeICE have all sorts of discretionary funds they can retarget. Course, you know that too.
Oh, Bannon still there.
But keep bashing Trump every chance you get, playing right into libs hands.
Is China selling us unfairly priced lumber?
So I guess you are trying to say that China doesnt treat us unfairly in trade...like Canada.
Hey. I got an idea.
Why don't we try, "reaching across the aisle."
It appears to be the same lumber tariff that has been in effect for 20 years. They just renewed it.
You said mexico is already paying for the wall. I asked for an example. do you have one?
Canada talking about suing...so there may he sone new factor.
Yep. Inside source: confiscated drug money.
Not likely, this negotiation has been going for a couple years. They sue every time it is negotiated that the Country does not actually own the forests and are not dumping logs. The industry have been waiting for 3 months whether it would be renewed or not.
You haven’t named a pin identified specific trade violation from China. But we do have one from Canada. So do the Canucks get to screw us?
The violation is Canada.
We can go to the moon, so we can go to Jupiter. Do we?
How is that Mexico paying for it??? That is drug runners paying for it. Dont use the excuse that mexico as a country runs drugs because the same can be said about factions In Our government in the past.
Has is Mexico ..the country..paying for the wall right now.
Explain to the the trade violation of canada.
He’ll lose my support if he indeed walks away from this.
Trump is one man against a 4 trillion dollar corrupt stasi state. Just the fact that he got elected is a miracle.
Zot this hysterical concern troll.
Btw..google trade violation with china..and then get back to me on why trump Imposed one on canada and not any of the number of china issues.
President Trump has accomplished a lot in a short time. While conservatives are legitimately jumpy after years of systematic betrayal by the GOP-e, it would be appropriate to cut him a bit of slack instead of knee-jerking at every leftist headline. He has earned that much.
Try google. Who has more trade violations? Canada or china?
Trump got played like a fiddle on this. He is lose lose. Lose if he shuts down gov. And already the press is getting what it wants. Articles about trump backing away from building the wall. He played right into their hand.
