They say Donald Trump didn't factor in a lot of additional items when selling his wall, like topography, land acquisition , etc. How can such a successful businessman be so bad at math ?

I really hope Trump shuts down the government for his wall. Democrats may take the Senate also if he does.

Trump hasn't spent 10 seconds actually thinking about border security. He just came up with a slogan for his stump speech and ran with it. His cultists fell right in line because they were convinced by lies perpetrated by Russian bots that Hillary was the devil.

And democrats are offering "democratic socialism". More syllables does not equate to smarter or superior.

But in all honesty, they should build that wall and lock her up. Tens of millions of Americans agree, and that is why she lost. Trump tapped into that fermenting sentimental quite effectively. Much more effectively than anything Hillary ever did, other than lying with great ease.

Economic populism, growing, and protecting the middle class will beat Trump’s phony populism in 2018 and 2020.

Why haven't you done it then? You have the executive branch and both houses or Congress, and Sessions is trump's little lapdog.

Socialism (which is what you meant) always works great in the beginning, and fails miserably in the end. We don't have to travel down that path to know where it ends.

To grow the middle class, you would have to stop destroying it, which is what democrats have been doing for many years now. Trump is turning the ship around, and getting it back on course.

With massive tax cuts for the rich? Remember when Republicans were going to win the midterms with that strategy?
