After a tense public exchange with President Trump at the White House on border wall funding, Rep. Nancy Pelosi shared her anger with Democratic lawmakers.

At a meeting on Capitol Hill, Pelosi was quoted as saying, "it’s like a manhood thing for him. As if manhood could ever be associated with him. This wall thing."

Trump told Pelosi and Sen. Chuck Schumer in the Oval Office that he would be "proud" to shut down the government to get $5 billion for border security.

Democrats believe funding should remain at the current level of $1.3 billion for a year.
