President Trump pledged to completely close the “entire southern border” Friday; doubling-down on his budget fight with congressional Democrats who flat-out refuse to fund his border wall between the United States and Mexico.

“We will be forced to close the Southern Border entirely if the Obstructionist Democrats do not give us the money to finish the Wall & also change the ridiculous immigration laws that our Country is saddled with. Hard to believe there was a Congress & President who would approve!” tweeted the president.

House Minority Leader and likely Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi dismissed the president’s proposal this week; saying any funding for a border wall would be a “non-starter” for congressional Democrats.
