During his speech in Phoenix, the head of state said that the US will get the wall at any cost.

In addition, Trump criticized the Democrats. He called them obstructionists for opposing the US-Mexican border.

It is noted that, for the sake of its purpose regarding the above-mentioned wall, the US president can temporarily close the Congress. Perhaps, if the situation does not change, then the United States government will cease to function as early as October 1.
