Shutdown talks to continue after president, congressional leaders fail to reach a deal

President Trump called a Friday meeting with congressional leaders "productive," but it doesn't seem to have moved the government shutdown closer to a conclusion. The president also said he might declare a national emergency to build a border wall if Congress won't provide the funding he seeks. Meanwhile, Americans feel the shutdown's painful impact. Judy Woodruff talks to Lisa Desjardins.
