President Trump: I don’t think Democrats want to make a Deal on DACA
The President is pointing the finger at Democrats for a lack of progress on DACA and immigration reform.
FOX’s Rachel Sutherland reports from Washington:
President Trump says Democrats don’t really want a deal on DACA and he raised the specter of a government shutdown, tweeting that Democrats just want to take money away from the military.
Some Democrats have signaled they want a fix for so-called Dreamers attached to a spending bill. Republican Senator Rand Paul says Democrats need to compromise:

Congress has until midnight Friday to pass a spending bill before the federal government runs out of money.
