President Donald Trump has set a deadline of Nov. 3, 2020—Election Day—for completion of a wall that he has vowed to build along the southern border.

Meanwhile, he declined to estimate when the partial shutdown of the federal government will end, maintaining his demand that Congress approve more money for the wall project.
