The White House economic advisor informed CNN that he still saw a opportunity that Democrats would yield, but added that the president was "preparing to act|take action|intervene" if required. Stalled Talks Not any substantial signs of negotiations have appeared between legislative representatives since Trump sat down with them the previous week. The shutdown commenced on October 1st, after upper chamber Democrats voted against a interim budget proposal that would maintain government departments operational through to the twenty-first of November. "Democrats have declined to talk with us," Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer stated to the television network, claiming the deadlock could be resolved only by more talks between the president and the four legislative leaders.
