Trump says meeting with Democrats was 'total waste of time'

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday his meeting with Democratic congressional leaders seeking to end the partial government shutdown was a "total waste of time."

"I asked what is going to happen in 30 days if I quickly open things up, are you going to approve Border Security which includes a Wall or Steel Barrier? Nancy said, NO. I said bye-bye, nothing else works!" Trump wrote on Twitter. (Reporting by Eric Beech; editing by Jonathan Oatis)
