I won't end the shutdown if I don't get what I want.

I'm not going to end the shutdown because I won't get what I want.

I have the absolute right to do national emergency if I want. My threshold will be if I can't make a deal with people that are unreasonable.

The Republican Party I can say and I just left an hour meeting. We had a great time, actually. There was no discussion about anything other than solidarity. We want national security and border security for our country.

This situation could be solved in a 45-minute meeting. I have invited congressional leadership to the White House tomorrow to get this done.

Thank you to all of America's brave police, deputies, sheriffs, and federal law enforcement on National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day! We love you and will always support you. https://t.co/kGL6kPmpDY

Just left a meeting with Chuck and Nancy, a total waste of time. 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…

This should have been done by all the presidents that preceded me and they all know it. Some of them have told me that we should have done it.

I can relate and I'm sure that the people that are on the receiving end will make adjustment. They always do.

Economic numbers looking REALLY good. Can you imagine if I had long term ZERO interest rates to play with like the past administration, rather than the rapidly raised normalized rates we have today. That would have been SO EASY! Still…

This should have been done by all of the presidents that preceded me and they all know it. Some of them have told me, that we should have done it.

With all of the success that our Country is having, including the just released jobs numbers which are off the charts, the Fake News &amp, totally dishonest Media concerning me and my presidency has never been worse. Many have become…

....The Fake News Media in our Country is the real Opposition Party. It is truly the Enemy of the People! We must bring honesty back to journalism and reporting!

...The Fake News will knowingly lie and demean in order make the tremendous success of the Trump Administration, and me, look as bad as possible. They use non-existent sources &amp, write stories that are total fiction. Our Country is…

Will be going to Camp David tomorrow morning for meetings on Border Security and many other topics with @WhiteHouse senior staff.

I don’t care that most of the workers not getting paid are Democrats, I want to stop the Shutdown as soon as we are in agreement on Strong Border Security! I am in the White House ready to go, where are the Dems?

I thought her comments were disgraceful. Using language like that in front of her son and whoever else was there, I thought that was a great dishonor to her and to her family.

Well, the safety net is going to be having a strong border because we're going to be safe. Many of the people you are discussing, I really believe that they agree with what we're doing.

A wall. I build buildings that are 94 stories tall. And that's tough stuff. You know, this is -- this is so easy.

The safety net is having a strong border. We will be safe. I'm not talking about economically but ultimately economically.

He prefers calling it a strike.
