Because Trump had asked for only enough for 1/3 of the wall, $18 billion, a figure he has publicly stated for weeks.

Democrats offered $1.6 billion.

At that rate, the wall wouldn't be finished for 50 years.

Of course Trump rejected it.

According to Schumer, the number which they discussed came from Trump.

And of course earlier everyone heard him say he'll sign a deal if they bring it to him.

Interestingly Trump says a shutdown is always the presidents fault, because a president is supposed to get people in a room and negotiate a deal.

It worked.

As we can see from the plethora of posts on this forum, his base is riled up and no one's talking about the Russian/Trump investigation.

People are talking about it. Prove they are not?

Could have stopped at, "According to Schumer".

It’s in the article they keep citing. 1.6 billion was what Trump said he needed in 2017. They’ve jumped the number to 18 billion now. Keep in mind; somehow Mexico paying for it became us paying for it. Trumps skilled negotiating has moved our once free border wall into a multi billion dollar boondoggle.

You’d like that because then you wouldn’t have to face facts. Trump intentionally sabotaged negotiations. Trump worked to cause the government shutdown.

And it sounds like 18 billion will only cover a part of it. His estimates are all over the place.

No he didn't. He promised to discuss it in return for DACA. Discuss is not funding.

Facts Trump did this? Or is this emotional proof

The Democrats visceral hatred of the man that beat their candidate is doing long-term damage to our Nation.

Putting illegal's needs before our citizen's is shameful.
