US President Donald Trump says he would “love” to see another government
shutdown if Democrats fail to back his demands on immigration.
Speaking at a gathering of law enforcement officials and members of US
Congress at the White House on Tuesday, Trump asserted that, "We’ll do a
shutdown and it’s worth it for our country. I’d love to see a shutdown
if we don’t get this stuff taken care of."
The sabre rattling statement came as American senators from both sides
of the aisle were pushing for a two-year budget deal that could avert a
government shutdown.
“If we have to shut it down because the Democrats don’t want safety and,
unrelated but still related, they don’t want to take care of our
military, then shut it down," the president said. "We’ll go with another
shutdown.”
