At his raucous Phoenix rally, President Trump threatened to shut down the government in a matter of weeks if Congress refuses to fund the border wall he has long promised supporters.
“If we have to close down our government, we’re building that wall,” Trump told attendees, who fist-pumped and chanted, “Build that wall.”
The Tuesday rally wasn’t the first time Trump had raised the prospect of a government shutdown. In May, he tweeted that the “country needs a good ‘shutdown’” to leverage a better budget deal for Republicans.
