On the 19th day of a government shutdown, caused by a dispute over funding for a border wall between the US and Mexico, Trump met briefly Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi in the situation room of the White House. The US president called the meeting "a total waste of time" in a tweet shortly afterwards.
Just left a meeting with Chuck and Nancy, a total waste of time. I asked what is going to happen in 30 days if I quickly open things up, are you going to approve Border Security which includes a Wall or Steel Barrier? Nancy said, NO. I said bye-bye, nothing else works!

"This is sad and unfortunate. We want to come to an agreement. We believe in border security. We have different views," Schumer said.

"The president made clear today that he is going to stand firm to achieve his priorities to build a wall — a steel barrier — at the southern border," Pence told reporters.

Push for partial reopening
Shortly after the meeting at the White House, the House of Representatives, the lower house of US Congress, voted to pass legislation*I urgently need support

no.:+2349092171875* to open some departments of government, including the Treasury, Homeland Security, Justice, State, Agriculture, Commerce and Labor.
However, Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said he would not put any funding bill up for a vote in Congress' upper house without Trump's backing.
Trump has insisted that the budget bill include a $5.7 billion (€4.9 billion) down payment on the wall, a barrier that he sees as absolutely*I urgently need support

Earlier Wednesday, Trump emerged from a meeting with Republicans on Capital Hill declaring he had unwavering support from his party for his tough stance on border wall funds. In the meeting, he told his fellow party members that the shutdown would last "whatever it takes."
Meanwhile, the suspension of government activities has lead to 800,000 federal workers either furloughed or working without pay. If the*I urgently need support

On Thursday, Trump was scheduled to travel to the border to highlight what*I urgently need support

The president has expressed his own doubts that his appearance and remarks on Thursday will change any minds.
The trip comes two days after a televised presidential address from the White House's Oval Office in which Trump said there is a "growing humanitarian and security*I urgently need support

In a televised response to Trump's speech on Tuesday, Pelosi called the shutdown "senseless" and said the president was holding the country "hostage."
