Trump Says $20 Billion Project Schumer Wants Is ‘Pretty Much Dead’

In a statement, President Donald Trump claimed that a $20 billion project desired by Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer is "pretty much dead" due to the ongoing government shutdown. Trump did not provide any details about the specific project he was referring to, which is located in Schumer's home state of New York. The president suggested that the shutdown has given him the ability to eliminate this project, though he did not elaborate further. The comments highlight the ongoing tensions between the Trump administration and Democratic leadership in Congress as they continue to negotiate an end to the partial government shutdown.
