BREAKING NEWS: Trump in public Oval Office shouting match with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer as he threatens to shut down the government to get his wall built - and they call him a 'Pinocchio' and tell him: 'Elections have consequences'

Congress and the president must agree on a federal funding proposal by Dec. 21

Trump wants $5 billion to fund his border wall and had Washington worried he would engineer a partial shut down of the government if he doesn't get it

Democrats are offering him $1.6 billion that can be used on fencing not concrete

He indicated Tuesday that he had a new strategy: have the military build the wall

Democratic senators warned just yesterday that the military does not have the authority to use defense funds to build border barriers on a bombing range in AZ

Trump fired off tweets that cast immigrants as disease-carrying lawbreakers hours before Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer were due at the White House

Democratic leaders will meet Trump at 11:30 am to hash out a spending deal

Donald Trump's negotiating session with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer spiraled wildly out of control on Tuesday, with the politicians viciously tearing into the president in plain view of reporters.

Pelosi informed him that his border wall wouldn't pass in the House of Representatives, where Republicans hold a majority of seats, if it came for a vote.

Who was fighting to defend the border before Trump?

Who, besides President Trump, is FIGHTING to build it NOW?

Two steps...POTUS, Trump!!! First throw both Schumer and Pelosi out of the oval office. (Both have zero dignity and loyalty to the nation). Second shut the Government down until they come around!!! These people “Democrats” are both traitors and turncoats to their country and its legal citizens!!! Case closed!!!

Please. I watched it and that was NOT a shouting match. Heated, yes...shouting, no. What a bunch of wimps these so-called reporters are.

“I voted for Trump, and I would again, but didn’t he promise that Mexico was going to pay for the wall?”

Yes, but that was never going to be an outright thing. My view is that it as always going to be via a combination of decreased remittances to Mexico from the US, potential taxes on remittances, changes in trade deals, and by a decrease in things like medical expenses and other money spent on illegal immigration - which would then have to be dealt with in Mexico by Mexico.

Watching the news coverage on Fox, you can tell Schumer is unhappy about the cameras.

Makes me laugh.

PELOSI: “I don’t think you should have a debate in front of the press.”

All government business should be in front of the cameras!

Volunteers - hello no. Round up all illegal immigrants and have them build the wall to pay what they have cost the American taxpayers.

Love it! License official Wall merch. Sell ad space on the Wall, sponsorships. Can’t get more American that that, especially since THIS wall is being built to keep foreigners OUT, NOT our people IN.

Back in the late 80s, I stood on a hill overlooking a part of the wall East Germany built. I realized then the difference. And that difference makes all the difference.

Schumer is the Senate minority leader, and Pelosi isn't even the Speaker of the House yet.

Trump's invitation to these two is intended to send a message. I'm just not sure exactly what the message is. LOL.

Dont care one way or the other.

The point is to build it. Is anyone here sure if it comes from the massive amount un the American budget?

Trump should start a declassify everything extravaganza. FISA et al.
Let’s see what comes out of a bunch of sunlight.

And also a 40% tax on all cross border personal wire transfers.
