President Trump will not travel to South Florida for the holidays if the government shuts down on Saturday, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Thursday.

Sanders made the announcement while speaking to reporters outside the West Wing.

The president said he would not sign a spending deal to fund the government through Feb. 8 because it did not include funds for a wall along the southern border.
