Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2025

Remarks Upon Arrival From Landover, Maryland

November 9, 2025

Well, it looks like we're getting very close on the shutdown.

We'll never agree to give any substantial money—or any money—to, really, prisoners, illegals that come into our country. And I think the Democrats understand that.

And it looks like we're getting close to the shutdown ending. You'll know very soon. Thank you very much, everybody.

NOTE: The President spoke at 6:54 p.m. on the South Lawn at the White House after exiting Marine One. The transcript was released by the Office of Communications on November 12.
