Trump budget chief: Spending bill must have money for wall

Image result for trump
White House budget director Mick Mulvaney says that Democratic negotiators on a massive spending bill need to agree to fund top priorities of President Donald Trump such as a down payment on a border wall and hiring of additional immigration agents.  Trump says that the wall is a huge priority for the US right now.  Democratic votes are likely to be needed to pass whatever bill emerges.  Democrats have taken a hard line against any money for the border wall and insist that the measure include the "Obamacare" payments to insurance companies.   The White House isn't enthusiastic about Democratic demands on the Obamacare payments but is open to them as part of a broader agreement.
  • Is this a good idea?
  • Will Trump get his wall?
  • Where would Trump find the money?

  1. Trump will probably end up getting his wall if it truly is a priority.

  2. Because republicans control both the house and the senate, I think any bill will get passed regardless of what democrats want.

  3. If Trump is certain and putting more attention on the wall then other problems then the way will be built.

  4. Trump will definetly be able to build the wall considering Republicans control most the house. The money will probably come from taxes issued by the government

  5. I think trump will build a wall because he has the power to do so. I think he will get the money through taxes.

  6. The wall is a stupid idea. What a terrible place to put money. There is no money.

  7. I definitely feel like trump will build a wall and will get the money through taxes. This is a waste of money and should be focused on the flow of the economy and I feel like taxes will go up, rather than go down which is good for the economy.

  8. Trump is making it a huge priority of his. I believe that he will get his wall if he truly wants it. He will probably get this money through taxes.

  11. Due to the high amount of republicans in the House and Senate, I would not be surprised if he does build it.

  12. I don't think the wall is a good idea. Although, its the large amount of republicans in the house I think that if Trump really wants the wall that badly he'll find a way to get the money and make it happen. He will probably get the money through taxes.

  13. I think this idea is dumb and it would be better to just increase the amount of border patrol on the border instead of creating a wall. However, although unlikely, it is possible that Trump gets his wall because there are a ton of republicans in house, but many of them oppose Trump so there is still a chance that he will not get his wall.

  15. I don't think that Trump will get his wall because there is no money for it. Congress has been rejecting most of Trump promises and he has failed to get the one thing people cared about, the repeal of Obamacare. I don't think that he will be able to get the wall passed in his 4 years of being in office at this rate.
