Trump Wants Wall Funding Included In Must-Pass Stopgap Spending Bill; Republicans Cool to the Idea
The stopgap budget bill continues current levels of spending temporarily until a new complete budget is prepared and passed.
Trump wants to add the wall's funding to this because the bill must pass, otherwise, the government shuts down.
Republicans are cool to this idea, because they don't want to risk Democrats voting against the bill and shutting the government down (for some reason, Republicans get blamed when Democrats shut the government down), and because they don't actually want to fund the wall they authorized in 2006 and have been promising now for 11 years.
