lol the wall.
White House Budget Director Mick Mulvaney on Saturday ripped Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for "mischaracterizing" last-ditch negotiations Friday to avert a shutdown, saying that the New York Democrat has to "be more honest with the president."
Trump rejected Schumer's proposal over funding issues for a border wall, Mulvaney said.
Schumer has cited Trump's turnabout in charging on the Senate floor Saturday that "negotiating with President Trump is like negotiating with Jell-O."
Trump has demanded that any deal to protect the nearly 700,000 young aliens affected by the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program must include money for a wall on the southern U.S. border with Mexico to stop illegal immigration.
The president called Schumer to the Oval Office meeting on Friday, which was also attended by White House Chief of Staff John Kelly and Schumer's chief of staff, Mike Lynch.
In attacking Trump for rejecting his proposal, Schumer said that he "reluctantly" put border wall funding on the table during the meeting and that the president had first accepted it before later backing out.
"The way things went today, the way you turned from a bipartisan deal, it was almost as if you were rooting for a shutdown," Schumer said early Saturday after Democrats refused to back a House-approved plan on a four-week continuing resolution to keep the government open.
But Mulvaney told reporters at a White House update on the shutdown Saturday that Kelly provided a different rundown of the events at that Friday luncheon meeting.
"Mr. Schumer told the president, 'I will give you all of the money that you want for the wall,' and the president said: 'Great. $20 billion to build the whole wall?'"
However, Schumer countered: 'No. Only the $1.6 billion you asked for in the budget,'" Mulvaney said
lol the wall.
Lol let’s not fix the problem
Lol let’s put our head in the sand
Lol
Lol at chuck thinking he can out smart trump
lol Trump's entire government shut down because he couldn't make a deal.
Do you think you could do better
Members of congress did not even start talking to each other tell 1 hour before deadline
Trump did say might have to lock them up in room
Might have to
I'd have had them talk more than one hour before the deadline.
Therefore I could do better.
That was easy.
I suppose you think you can run the spurs better then rc
If Trump wants wall funding he should fly to Mexico City and lobby the Mexican congress for it. He said MEXICO was going to pay for the wall, not US.
Mulvaney's LYING
