WASHINGTON —
President Donald Trump demanded Monday that Congress pass new border legislation using the “Nuclear Option if necessary” to muscle it through the Senate – a drastic change in rules the Republican leader has previously dismissed.
Trump tweeted that the U.S. must build a border wall, but argued that “Democrats want No Borders, hence drugs and crime!” He also said that a deal to help “Dreamer” immigrants, DACA, is “dead because the Democrats didn’t care or act.”
