Chuck Schumer, President Trump brought reporters into the Oval Office and — in an extended, heated exchange before the cameras — clashed with the two Democratic leaders over congressional support for funding for his border wall, declaring that he is “proud to shut down the government for border security,” Axios reports.
The Washington Post called it “an explosive and acrimonious Oval Office encounter played out live with cameras rolling.”
