Shutdown Day 17 White House, Dems disagree on definition of ‘negotiating’
over 5 years in Roll Call
The White House went on the offensive Monday in what likely will be a prolonged battle with congressional Democrats, arguing the party refuses to seriously negotiate an end to a partial government shutdown and is readying a presidential public relations offensive.
As Democratic leaders and rank-and-file members continue blasting the Trump administration, accusing it of being dug in and unwilling to move from President Donald Trump’s demand for $5.7 billion for a southern border wall, the White House is doing what it often does: Punching back.
Who is popular today?
