Trump said that the Democrats were only interested in obstruction and want to use DACA for their own benefit.

"I have offered DACA a wonderful deal, including a doubling in the number of recipients & a twelve year pathway to citizenship, for two reasons: (1) Because the Republicans want to fix a long time terrible problem. (2) To show that Democrats do not want to solve DACA, only use it!" the US President tweeted.

In an ensuing tweet, he brought up the border safety debate.

"Democrats are not interested in Border Safety & Security or in the funding and rebuilding of our Military. They are only interested in Obstruction!" Trump said.

Earlier in the week, the Democrats had withdrawn an offer to fund the building of the wall alongside the US-Mexico border.

According to reports, US Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer orchestrated the move.

An angry Trump later took to Twitter and posted: "DACA has been made increasingly difficult by the fact that Cryin’ Chuck Schumer took such a beating over the shutdown that he is unable to act on immigration!"
