Graham Encourages Trump To ‘Dig In’ And ‘Force’ Congress To Give Him Wall

Just as White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders announced that President Trump didn’t want to go any further without border wall funding, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) encouraged Trump to “dig in” and “force” lawmakers to give him wall funding instead of signing the continuing resolution.

I encourage the President to dig in and force the Democrats and Republicans to help him better secure the border. If I were him, I would stand firm,” he told CNN Thursday morning.

Sanders said in a press release Thursday that Trump was meeting with House Republicans Thursday afternoon and was “continuing to weigh his options,” but said he “does not want to go further without border security.”
