Video of Trump-Pelosi-Schumer heated meeting on @CNN now
“It’s called funding the government, Mr President,” Schumer says tersely to Trump when he talks about funding the wall
“We should not have a Trump shutdown,” Pelosi says. Trump: “A what?” Pelosi: “A Trump shutdown.”
Trump getting angry as Pelosi says he doesn't have the votes in the House to fund the wall with GOP votes alone. "Nancy, I do."
Schumer on wall: "It doesn't solve the problem."
Trump: "It totally solves the problem."
Trump: "It totally solves the problem."
"When the president brags that he won in Indiana and North Dakota, he's in real trouble," Schumer says of Trump boasting about keeping the Senate.
"We did" win North Dakota and Indiana, Trump shoots back.
Pence, meanwhile, sitting silently

"Elections have consequences, Mr. President," Schumer said.
Trump: "And that's why the country is doing so well."
Trump: "And that's why the country is doing so well."
AND THERE IT IS. Trump: "If we don't get what we want ... I will shut down the government ... I am proud to shutdown the government for border security. ... I will take the mantle ... for shutting down the government."
Pence, meanwhile, sat silently and didn’t say a word.
