yeah, that's the thing... he doesn't want to trade ANYTHING for it. he thinks he should get his $5.7B and democrats should get nothing. That's why the government is shut down. If they were just horsetrading over details there wouldn't be a shutdown. It, would just be normal washington operation, keep the government open and negotiate agreements like they've done for 200+ years.
PRESIDENT DEALS doesn't understand that simple dynamic.
