Rick Santorum (R-Pa.) said Tuesday that President Donald Trump should sign the $1.3 billion bipartisan border security deal, then declare a national emergency and get more money to build the wall.
During a panel discussion on CNN’s “New Day with Alisyn Camerota and John Berman,†Santorum was asked whether President Donald Trump will get on board with the deal.

“I’m disappointed in frankly the Democrats not willing to put up a more respectable figure for the barrier and Republicans for not driving toward a better number.
