Some people are blaming Trump for "not fulfilling his campagn promises to build the wall". The President seems to be the only one involved that REALLY cares about the shutdown, cares about the federal workers who won't be paid again. President Trump has his plate OVERFULL, investigations, roadblocks at every turn by the dems and some blocks from his own party. The Senate committee has declared "NO COLLUSION", but the investigations go on...and on.

If you think the demo-rats aren't EQUALLY the cause of the first shutdown ( dems & reps were SUPPOSED to negotiate but dems WOULDN'T) and the workers NOT being paid (the Natl. guard) then you need to watch this video of Ted Cruz speaking to congress, it may open your eyes....WATCH VIDEO

Trump intends to sign border deal to avoid another shutdown
By Dana Bash and Betsy Klein, CNN February 13th 2019

President Donald Trump intends to sign the border security deal to avoid another partial government shutdown, according to two sources who have spoken directly with the President.

Trump said Tuesday that he was "not happy" with the tentative deal reached by congressional negotiators late Monday night that falls far short of his original demands.

Congress faces a deadline to get a deal passed and signed by Trump before Friday.

Follow this story to get email or text alerts from ABC7 when there is a future article following this storyline.

The agreement, which includes $1.375 billion for a border barrier, falls well short of the $5.7 billion Trump originally demanded for a wall. It even falls short of the $1.6 billion included in a Senate package last year.

Still, the measure would avert another government shutdown. Polls showed Trump was largely blamed for the previous 35-day impasse.

Even as lawmakers haggled over details of their agreement, the White House had been planning behind the scenes to secure the funds for the wall unilaterally.

The White House says Trump is continuing to weigh his options to fund a border wall, which still include taking executive action to secure funding for a wall. It's not clear which combination of actions the President might use, and the topic has been under debate for weeks.

Not all would require declaring a national emergency, and they are likely to be rolled out piece by piece, not necessarily all at once, once Trump signs off.
