by a vote 217 to 185: 8 republicans voting against it they said they had to muster these votes because president trump was going to threaten a veto. here is what is in this bill. 5.7 billion for the border wall. 7.8 billion for disaster relief and funds the government until february 8th. this was a defeat for democrats who claim the g.o.p. didn't have the votes. now democrats are branding this the trump shut down. >> the president of the united states prefers to shut government down. >> president trump is throwing a temper tantrum and creating the trump shut down. >> the bill now goats to the senate where its future is uncertain. productions need 60 votes to overcome a filibuster in a 51-49 majority. so, throw in the towel. it's shut down time, right, guys? not so fast as republican senator a member of the senate appropriations committee tweeting it's time to use nuclear option.
