>> reporter: president trump is direct tmake his case the american public tonight that there is a crisis brewing on the border, a national security emergency best solved by a steel barrier stretching to the heavens, and he's going to do it frse the oval office bec he's trying to commandeer all of the symbolic might of the room to make his case. why now? because you have thisartial government shutdown stretching into its third week, there is no deal on e horizon and both sides are dug in. the president is considering declaring a national emergency. our latestor rng is he won't do that. you can raise the question either it's a national emergency or it's not. what's there to coitider? house lawyers have to deem whether or not this is something legally justifiable and defensible. we're not there this is still a work in progress. since there is no deal on the t horizon, president is pivoting away from congressionam

ers to the american public trying to say this is a national security issue, when, in aact, allng it's been a political issue. a political issue for donald trump. in part because he claimed ownershiptd of the sn. a couple weeks ago he said he'd be proud to shutdown the government over border security. aid because he he would not agreed topending deal both by democrats and republicans. here we are. >> answer me this, how is thec american pubing to bail him out of this? they don't get to vote on capitol hill. >> reporter: right. at's why he's trying to make their case to the american people so they would in turn call members of conglsss. but you have congressional republicans who say a border wall is note a via policy solution. democrats say it's not just about the wall. they view the wall as a physical representation of donald trump's anti-immigrant pitch. so that's why they don't wart any of it. they also, speaking to the

politics of it, they don't want to give him a political win heading into 2020. both sides are dug .in has aoli incentive to work across aisle. apart from the fact that this friday, these 800,000 workers go without a paycheck. then you have low income americans w can't get access to food stamps, snap benefits. you have courts that will close. you have all these agencies that will run short and they could close. so there's a domino effect that the president is trying to g in front of since there's no deal in sight and noecnism that's apparent right now for both sides to come together. >> jeff benet at the white house. thank you so much. 9:00 we'llave team coverage of the fallout on news4 at 11:00. one local university is pitching in. they're helping federal
