1:18:58Now PlayingThe White House on Thursday signaled that a "large down payment" on border wall funding -- and potentially less than the $5.7 billion that President Trump has long requested -- could be sufficient to bring Republicans to the table and end the ongoing partial federal government shutdown.
"Leader Mitch McConnell and Senator Chuck Schumer are meeting now to see whether or not they can work out of the deadlock," White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said Thursday evening. "As was made clear to Senator Lindsey Graham, the three- week CR [continuing resolution] would only work if there is a large down payment on the wall."
Trump, in separate comments to reporters at the White House, pushed for a "prorated down payment" on the wall, also without providing a concrete dollar figure.
"If they come to a reasonable agreement, I would support that," Trump told reporters, referring to Schumer and McConnell.
