President Trump took to Twitter Wednesday morning where he continued pushing the importance of funding for border security and the wall.
This comes after his meeting at the White House House with Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer where the two witnessed what transparency looks like.
President Trump asked on Twitter Wednesday morning, “The Democrats and President Obama gave Iran 150 Billion Dollars and got nothing, but they can’t give 5 Billion Dollars for National Security and a Wall?”
The president was referring to former President Barack Obama’s controversial $1.7 billion settlement with Iran including a special delivery of $400 million in pallets of cash to the country on the same day that Iran released American prisoners, per Breitbart.
