Trump cancels meeting with top Democrats amid shutdown risk

President Trump canceled a planned meeting with Democratic leaders, rejecting their demands for increased healthcare funding to prevent a government shutdown. Trump accused Democrats of threatening a shutdown, while Democrats criticized him for avoiding negotiations. The stalemate increases the risk of a federal government closure by the October 1st deadline. A temporary funding measure failed in the Senate due to Democratic opposition, highlighting the deep divisions between the parties.
