Congress and the President have not been able to work out a compromise to fund the Department of Homeland Security.

That's causing long lines at airports because TSA agents, who are not being paid, are quitting their jobs or staying home from work.

The president has signed an emergency order allowing him to pay the TSA agents.

In addition, President Trump is dealing with the economic fallout from the war in Iran.

As long as Iran restricts shipping in the Strait of Hormuz, oil prices will continue to rise.

And that has caused the war to become even more unpopular and Trump's approval ratings to drop even further.

Polls show Trump's base is still solidly behind him, but there are cracks in his MAGA coalition.

An AP poll last week showed one quarter of Republicans saying the war has already gone too far.
