The triple-amputee veteran who started a GoFundMe fundraiser that’s garnered more than $19 million for President Donald Trump’s border wall tried meeting with the top Democratic leader to ask why she can’t compromise and meet Republicans in the middle.

Brian Kolfage started the “We the People Will Fund the Wall“ fundraiser, which circulated widely and as of Jan. 5, had raised more than $19 million from more than 315,000 people.
