ObamaCare will die if it does not receive funds: Trump

Asserting that ObamaCare is in serious trouble, U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday said that the healthcare programme will die if it doesn't receive funds to keep it going.

"ObamaCare is in serious trouble. The Dems need big money to keep it going - otherwise it dies far sooner than anyone would have thought," Trump tweeted.

This comes just days before the Democrats and Republicans must agree on a federal budget or face a government shutdown, reports local media.

Trump said that Mexico will eventually pay for his proposed border wall.

He added that democrats don't want money from budget going to border wall despite the fact that it will stop drugs

"The Democrats don't want money from budget going to border wall despite the fact that it will stop drugs and very bad MS 13 gang members.Eventually, but at a later date so we can get started early, Mexico will be paying, in some form, for the badly needed border wall, Trump said in a series of tweet.

Both Democrats and republicans are pushing for funding of their own priorities.

The White House is pushing for funds to build a wall along the Mexican border and enhance border security, while Democrats hope to make more inroads in healthcare coverage.
