Trump will be in Los Angeles for a fundraiser so will use the opportunity for a quick trip to San Diego to see the prototypes. I'm curious to hear his verdict, based on his construction expertise.

What construction expertise? Was he on a construction crew working to put buildings up or was he just signing whatever was put in front of him? How much practical construction knowledge does he have?

These prototypes will just become a tourist attraction of a failed attempt, like the failure that is his presidency.

He can ask those that built them and the teams that tried to climb over them if they are workable. There are already sections along our southern border with good walls that have cut back illegal immigration immensely. I'm sure since Trump has been involved in many building projects of his own that he is knowledegable in that area. He's an involver not someone who just sits at a desk and signs stuff.

You must be a millennial who is too young to know that Trump was much more than a reality TV star. He has a long career as a very successful builder and developer. Read The Art of the Deal, the first book of a series that is basically his biography, and you will learn how he started out helping his dad on construction sites, picking up stray nails to save money. His father started from nothing. Trump taught his own kids the family business the same way. Eric and Don Jr run the Trump Organization. Ivanka was project manager on the luxury hotel in DC across from the White House. She isn't a dumb blonde by any means. This hotel came in ahead of schedule and under budget.

Tony Schwartz who wrote the art of the deal, said that Trump was a sociopath, and pathologically impulsive. He also said that Trump had the attention span of a Cocker spaniel, Schwartz was bang on.

I love watching leftists get enraged every time they're reminded of the wall. The one they said would never get built.

Not just the wall, but everything he Tweets, says or does. Its absolutely phenomenal how easily he can get into Liberals minds and scramble it, LOl. Ive never witness such a thing in my entire life; its crazy.

He talked the talk, time to visit Mexico, walk the walk and demand a check. But of course his talk is cheap.

Now that SCOTUS has sent DACA back to lower courts, knowing it will take over a year to resolve, there will be NO immigration reform, no wall. DACA is no longer in jeopardy, so nothing will happen.
