1. President Trump abruptly walked out of a meeting on the government shutdown with Democratic leaders at the White House.

“Just left a meeting with Chuck and Nancy, a total waste of time,” the president tweeted. “I asked what is going to happen in 30 days if I quickly open things up, are you going to approve Border Security which includes a Wall or Steel Barrier? Nancy said, NO. I said bye-bye, nothing else works!”

Democrats said that the president had thrown a “temper tantrum.” Above, Senator Chuck Schumer after the meeting.
