President Trump, first lady attend Christmas Eve service at Washington National Cathedral

President Donald Trump is attending worship services on Christmas Eve.

Trump and his wife, first lady Melania Trump, arrived at Washington National Cathedral for a late service on Monday night.

Trump most likely would have been attending Christmas services at church near his estate in Palm Beach, Florida.

But he scrapped plans to head to Florida for the holidays after parts of the government were forced to shut down indefinitely in a stalemate with Congress.

Trump wants $5.7 billion for a southern border wall. Democrats and some Republicans are opposed.
