Once again, Republican president Donald Trump is threatening to shut down the government if he doesn’t get funding for his unnecessary and wasteful wall along the Mexican border. Which leaves me, once again, very confused.

Is he threatening to shut down the US government or the Mexican government? Because he told us Mexico would pay for the wall. Which leads me quite confused. Why would he need funding for a wall that Mexico is going to pay for?
