U.S. President Donald Trump has lashed out at Democrats after they rejected his offer to end the longest government shutdown in American history. <br />For more on this and other news around the world we turn to our Ro Aram…<br />Aram… the stalemate continues….<br /><br />Yes Mark… President Trump tweeted he had offered the Democrats what he called "compromises" over the weekend only to have them rejected before he could even speak about them.<br />These offers included extending temporary protections for young people brought to the U.S. illegally as children as well as those fleeing disaster zones.<br />Trump added his opponents "don't see crime and drugs, they only see 2020 - which they are not going to win."<br />He still didn't budge on his near six billion-dollar demand for his border with Mexico. <br />The Democrats were quick to dismiss the offers, calling them a "nonstarter" and a "compilation of several previously rejected initiatives."<br />The Democrats insist they will not negotiate until the government is reopened.<br />In a second tweet, President Trump posted "No. Amnesty is not part of my offer."<br />He seemed to be addressing his conservative critics, who are concerned the offers he made could amount to an amnesty.<br />But, the president also appeared to threaten to target millions of people living in the country illegally if he didn't get his way.<br />He wrote there would be no big push to remove these people, but warned his harshest critic, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, to be "careful."<br />With tensions rising between the White House and the Democrats, there is still no end in sight for the government shutdown, which has now entered its fifth week. <br />
