Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said, adding that Trump slammed the table. &#8220;He said, &#8216;Then we have nothing to discuss&#8217; &#8230;He just walked out of the meeting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Trump quickly confirmed Schumer&#8217;s version of events in a tweet, making the details of the testy exchange the only thing the president and his Democratic counterparts could agree on in their fight over reopening a partially closed federal government and funding a border wall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">At one point, a congressional aide familiar with the meeting said, Schumer asked Trump why he wouldn&#8217;t open the government to relieve the suffering of Americans hurt by it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;Because then you won&#8217;t give me what I want,&#8221; Trump responded, according to the aide.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">White House officials described the president as calm during the meeting and one said afterward that he felt that he had called their bluff by offering to end the shutdown immediately if Democrats would agree to his border-security demands.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Several federal agencies have been shut down since Dec. 22. Trump has demanded that Congress include $7 billion in border security and humanitarian aid \u2014 including $5.7 billion in money for the wall \u2014 in any spending bill to re-open the parts of the government that have been shuttered for nearly three weeks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">As he met with Republican and Democratic leaders and Vice President Mike Pence, the White House issued a threat to veto a series of House spending bills that would open individual agencies because they don&#8217;t include money for the wall. The threat said Trump&#8217;s advisers &#8220;would recommend&#8221; that he veto the bills, rather than using the stronger language that the &#8220;president would&#8221; veto the bills that the Office of Management and Budget sometimes uses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Pelosi opened her remarks after the meeting by describing the discussion as frigid.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8220;It\u2019s cold out here, and the temperature wasn\u2019t much warmer in the Situation Room,&#8221; she said outside the White House.<\/p>\n<section class=\"inlineVideo___3ZAlE\">\n<div class=\"background___MJluj\">\n<div class=\"player___16ja0\">\n<div class=\"videoPlayer container___2PgWR adNotPlaying___2SAW9\">\n<div class=\"relative\">\n<div class=\"supra-wrapper\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"vilynx_wrapperImg\" src=\"https:\/\/media4.s-nbcnews.com\/j\/MSNBC\/Components\/Video\/201901\/f_mo_dc_schumerpelosi_190109.860;484;7;70;5.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"redirectWrapper\">\n<div class=\"redirectCenter\">\n<div id=\"counter\" class=\"counter\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"pt4 pl4 pr8 pt5-m pl6-m pr9-m info___3BGcG\">\n<h2 class=\"title___1CDQX f5 f7-m lh-title founders-cond ma0 pa0\"><a class=\" vilynx_listened\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/video\/trump-walks-out-of-government-shutdown-meeting-with-schumer-pelosi-1422868035560\">Schumer: Trump &#8216;got up and walked out&#8217;
