I cant guarantee but i feel very confident that that wont happen. Reporter the biggest sticking point, the president insisting he wants the spending bill to include funding for the border wall, but for democrats who are opposed to the wall, thats a nonstarter. This is ultimately on donald trump. It will be the democrats that shut this government down to block the funding of the wall. While the president is trying to downplay the 100 day benchmark, calling it a ridiculous standard.

Barack obama today admitting his youthful idealism. There is not a liberal 34erk and a conservative america. There is the United States of america. Reporter was too optimistic.

Reporter the candidate she calls a fascist is Marine Le Pen. She would be the first female president. She wants to leave the eu and has modelled her campaign on President Trump. Many in france havent liked what theyve seen of the american president so far.
