Trump: Many of Federal Employees Agree with What We’re Doing, We Have No Choice

TRUMP: "Media, thank you very much. I appreciate it. The message is that I appreciate their service to the country. They are incredible people, federal employees that we’re talking about. But many of them agree with what I’m saying and what the people in this room, who are experts, are saying. They don’t want to see people killed because we can’t do a simple border structure and I appreciate their incredible support. We have — yesterday, I was watching this morning and reading this morning that so many people are saying the President is doing what’s right and even though it’s affecting us, short term temporarily, as you know, a bill was just passed which I will sign in Congress making sure that everybody’s going to be paid immediately upon when this is over, but I just really appreciate the fact that they have handled it so incredibly well, and many of them agree with what we’re doing. We have no choice."
