You realize the question is if any of them told Trump personally that they agreed with him on the wall and told him they themselves should have built it, right?

Clinton and Obama both supported funding a wall. Hillary supported it. There are videos of ALL of them saying as much, so who are really the liars?

The liberals can't see past their rage and hatred to even see what's painfully obvious.

If they supported it then, why not now? The only difference is that Donald Trump wants it and is willing to do something about it, unlike the Democrats that swept the problem under the rug.

The "disgrace" is that Steve McDonalds' assessment (shown below) IS ACCURATE:

Hillary was RIGHT - "Deplorables" indeed.

I hope you don't mind my posting the direct link, rather than the MSN pass-through:

You know, Trump is so awful that I imagine some past presidents are turning over in their graves, so perhaps we'll soon find that dead presidents are refuting him, too.
The dead Reagan did come back a few times during political campaigns. He was a changed man....that is, not the Reagan who raised taxes, the deficit and gave amnesty to millions of Mexicans. Instead, they put words in his mouth....or grunts, at least!

Hillary supported some type of barrier and border security.

Obama also is a proponent of more border security.

All of them. Why is it so hard to admit that?

Ah, I see what you did there.

Did PRESIDENT Obama say this? No.

But while he was POTUS, the Republican/GWB Depression ended up sending more millions back than any Wall every would. That's a good way to fix the problem - destroy the entire country (sorta what Trump is working on)...like burning down the house to remove an ant infestation.

I disagree with 100% of everything you say, but his comment is kinda funny.
