Conservative commentator Ann Coulter on Tuesday continued to rip President Trump over his tough-to-fund wall along the US-Mexico border. "Trump talks a good game on the border wall but it's increasingly clear he's afraid to fight for it," she tweeted. "Call this his 'Yellow New Deal.'" Her tweet comes as lawmakers work to avoid another government shutdown, which will go into effect on February 15 if Democrats, Republicans, and the president can't agree on border security measures. According to the Washington Post, the team of congressional negotiators revealed on Monday night that it had reached an "agreement in principle." Notably, it does not include the $5.7 billion Trump is demanding for his wall but does provide $1.375 billion for new fencing. The president commented on Tuesday: "Am I happy? The answer is no. I'm not. I'm not happy." It is uncertain if Trump will sign the compromise, should it make it through the House and Senate.
