WASHINGTON — Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle breathed a sigh of relief Friday after President Donald Trump announced that a deal — that excludes border wall funding — had been reached to end the 35-day partial government shutdown that began in December.Democrats blasted the president, arguing that he ultimately caved in negotiations that left him without his priority after allowing the shutdown to continue for more than a month.”So Trump is agreeing to the EXACT SAME DEAL he rejected 35 days ago. What a debacle. I’m so so sorry, America,” tweeted Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., on Friday.
