Oh my goodness please stop changing the disinformation. You sound silly.


Your current outrageous statements are going to be found not credible by those you once wanted to convince and thought were on your side of the lies.


Actually, CrownVic95, Candidate Trump and President Trump has a well documented history of self aggrandizement, bragging and claims of greatness. Just look at his Twitter accounts for the past several years or google my above words and you will be able to access videos and transcripts of most of his embarrassing, self congratulatory audacious bragging.


Yes, he did and does claim to be a great creature! Despite the sane folks of the world knowing his true measure, he continues to be a disaster of a human being while touting his faux brilliance.

THAT is so disingenuous and you actually believe it doesn't show.

Explain how he was supposed to unite with people that hate him for every little reason, his desert, her shoes, petty little people? The millions of people who hate him more than they love this country are united, so he actually did unite the dolts.



You blurt something out and then blame him for not doing the impossible.
Why do so many people despise Trump? If I have to explain it to you you'll never know.

I urge you to really think about that. I know there will be no changing your mind but, I am done.

The better argument I think is that Trump has long been a privileged person. Protected and promoted by his father and family and likely surrounded by yes men. Mistakes are never his doing in his Trump Industries world but I am sure various and sundry real people were fired as scapegoats for him.

So he believes he is this great creature.

But this presidency has shown the world that he isn't. He is just a delusional fool who doesn't know how bad he is.

That is the better argument to make.

Over the few months I have heard various and sundry good ideas how to get this wall in better ways, such as Bonds being sold to fund it and or using drug runners money. But he doesn't seem to have any other options. That is either pure laziness or stupidity.
Many presidents have hired staff with opposing points of view, Trump doesn't seem to like disagreement or conflict and that is one of the reasons for the high turnover. That and he seems to be a reflection of the last person that spoke to him and he certainly doesn't take criticism well.

Now, the whole "Mexico paying for the wall" has become little more than a sour grape talking point for those same people.


Did you really think that Trump literally meant that Mexico would cut us a check?


But you are right about one thing.....


For those who place a high importance on border security, the end goal is more important than who pays for it.


Kind of like the Left was with Obamacare.....

Only you all actually believed his BS about every family saving thousands per year ....

No truer words were spoken.

We shouldn’t need a translator for a statement that was made thousands of times, his hard core supporters still believe him and are reduced to claiming that El Chapos seizures will pay for the wall.

Even if you didn’t many of his voters did, once Mexico told Trump to go F himself he found himself in a corner, then he backpedaled fast. And yes base bought in both of his lies. Yes there needs to be better immigration but not a silly wall where they are digging UNDER. It.

Hire and train border agents and by doing that you create Jobs!!
