Senator Rand Paul declared Wednesday that President Trump's compromise deal with Democrats was in fact a 'big victory' because the President secured over a billion dollars in funding for border security that everyone else had given up on.

"I think in the end, Trump won a big victory here, because everybody else had folded," Paul said in an interview with Breitbart News.

"At Christmas time, everybody else was folding, and just saying, 'Oh the Democrats gained control of the House, this is the best that we'll ever do.' So he got $1.375 billion for border security that wasn't in there before," the Senator continued.
