President Trump’s speech

Erick Rodea, Staff Writer

On January 8, 2019, President Donald Trump went live on CNN, giving a speech explaining the reason why the government is shut down.

The shutdown has been going on for 4 weeks now and is still going because President Trump cannot get Democrat voters to give him the money that he needs to build a wall in the southern border.

President Trump blames Democrats because they do not see the people on the other side of the border as a threat, but President Trump does.

“Democrats will not fund border security.”

Democrats have explain that 5.7 billion dollars is a lot of money to give for a border that will not solve the problem of immigrants crossing the border.

Immigrant families cross the border illegally for a better life in the United States, and President Donald Trump is doing everything he can to keep immigrants from entering the U.S. and have them put back to their countries.

The President addresses the immigrants and explains various reasons why they should not be welcomed to the U.S. Among some of the reasons are references to issues around drug dealers bringing in illegal drugs.

Will President Trump will continue to shutdown the government until he achieves his goal?
