In the evening, the u.s. senate is faced with the question of whether to vote for Donald Trumps wall against Mexico, or whether to allow hundreds of thousands of employees within the police, the transport sector and other federal agencies to be without pay for an indefinite future.
Trump himself claims to the equivalent of about 50 billion dollars, which he wants to start building the great wall is a savings. In the Thursday claimed Trump to the cost of illegal immigration cost about 275 billion each year.

the wall hanging together with another proposal that will ensure that employees within the federal administration in the united states going to get their salaries. Voted one proposal down fall also the other.
And the resistance to bet on a wall is great among the democratic politicians, and since it takes 60 votes to get through the wall in the senate, where republicans have 51 votes, see the proposal to fall. When the issue was raised in the house of representatives went through with 217 votes against 185.
the proposal is voted down is great. One of them who says he will not vote for it is the republican senator Jeff Flake. Flake is one of Donald Trump’s foremost critics of the Republicans.
On Friday, went Donald Trump out and called the Republican leader in the senate, Mitch McConnell, to change the rules so that it only required 50 votes to get through the proposal.
’t be the first time the rules change in a separate issue. This has been done by both the Democrats as the Republicans at various times.
And Trump now puts the pressure on the Republicans. In a post on Twitter, wrote Trump on Friday a direct call to Mitch McConnell:
”Mitch, make use of the possibility to a simple majority and get it over with! Our country is counting on you!”
also to challenge the Democrats:
”the Closure today if the Democrats do not vote for border security!”
And at 16-the time filled the president with:
”Now is the closure in the Democrats ‘ hands!”
At a news conference later on Friday reiterated Donald Trump that everything now hangs on the Democrats. But, said Trump, ”chances are good” that there will be a closure.
” It’s all about the pennies, five billion dollars. But they have devoted their lives to this should not be, ” said Trump.
Earlier in the week, said Trump that he would be proud to shut down the federal administration.
Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi have responded with to call it as is now happening for ”Trumpstängningen” and suggests that the responsibility lies entirely on the president who is now trying to push through their controversial proposals simultaneously with the proposal on wage payments. On Friday, told Schumer that there was not enough evidence in the senate to Trump’s proposal for money for the wall would go through.
During Friday met Trump several key republican senators in an attempt to find a solution on the infected issue.
The american president suffered yet another setback Friday when the U.S. supreme court refused to accept the White house’s desire to deny the illegal immigrants who enter the country through routes other than the official, the possibility of asylum.
