Trump And Schumer Go AT Each Other During White House Meeting

President Trump just met with Schumer and Pelosi, and what a meeting it was. (At least, the part we could see.)

Things got tense. Trump and Schumer went AT it over border security.

Except no. Pelosi and Schumer don’t want border security. They think walls are racist and hurtful. We’ve heard them say this. (Well, they were for walls a few years ago, but now Trump is POTUS, so it’s cool to hate them, because #resist.)

Trump is right. We deserve national security. We deserve a wall.

Trump straight up told Schumer he will shut down the government if we don’t get what we want.

It was wild to watch him say it to Schumer’s face.
