President Trump took three hours to complete his argument for his proposed border wall on Twitter on Monday morning.
“The Wall is a very important tool in stopping drugs from pouring into our country and poisoning our youth (and many others)! If,” Trump wrote in a first tweet.

Hours later, he continued: “…the wall is not built, which it will be, the drug situation will NEVER be fixed the way it should be!”

He tweeted about his phone call with a NASA astronaut in between the two tweets.
Trump also addressed the border wall Sunday on the social media platform, saying it would stop drugs and “very bad” gang members from entering the U.S.
The Democrats don’t want money from budget going to border wall despite the fact that it will stop drugs and very bad MS 13 gang members.

Trump has demanded that lawmakers include funding in the spending bill for the border wall. The government faces a partial shutdown at the end of the week if Congress can’t reach a deal on the spending bill.
