(Washington, DC) — President Trump is warning that he may shut down the government soon. The President said before he left for the G20 Summit in Argentina that he’s willing to close it down if any spending bill does not contain money for his southern border wall and border security. The government is scheduled to run out of money on December 7th. Speaker Paul Ryan said that the Republican-led House is ready to give Trump five-billion dollars for the border wall. He said there may be a problem getting that through the closely-divided Senate. Trump repeatedly promised during the 2016 presidential campaign that Mexico would pay for the wall.
