Since 0:00 on January 20 (US time), the US government has been in a state of partial shutdown due to disagreements in budget negotiations between the Democratic and Republican parties on January 19.
During the 16-day shutdown in 2013, Mr. Trump shared with Fox News that Mr. Obama was responsible for this incident.
Mr. Trump also said that the person under pressure was none other than the president when the government shutdown occurred.

According to Dailymail, Mr. Trump is also said to have spent time talking with Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen and Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis about the impact of the closure on border security.
In addition, on January 20, hundreds of thousands of Americans, mainly women in Washington, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and 250 different cities across the United States took to the streets to protest against the policy.
According to Reuters, due to the government shutdown, President Trump canceled his family’s trip to Mar-a-Lago resort to celebrate the first anniversary of his inauguration.
