Dispute about the US budget: Trump threatens with month-long Shutdown

the second summit meeting at the White house to the budget dispute ends with no result. US President, Trump is threatening a long Shutdown - and nevertheless not confident that soon a solution will be found.

President, Donald Trump has threatened to halt the business of government for months or even years. "I don't think it would come to this, but I'm prepared," said Trump after another top meet with representatives from the US Congress. He hoped, however, that the Shutdown will only last a few days. He also did not rule out a national emergency to declare to him, as promised, wall on the border to Mexico to build.

Who will win the dispute over the Shutdown: the Trump or the Democrats?

The group leader of the Democrats in the U.S. Senate, Chuck Schumer, said that Trump had threatened with a Shutdown in an unprecedented length. Pelosi, and he had called Trump a matter of urgency, to find a solution to end the budget can quickly lock and to take the population hostage. "He refused," lamented Schumer.

The newly-elected Chairman of the house of representatives, the Democrat Nancy Pelosi, said that the talks with Trump and in part controversial. Trump spoke of a very productive Meeting and announced further negotiations in the course of the weekend. He confirmed his statement, however, to a potentially year-long Shutdown.
