Would you care to show me, and others what proof you have of what you are saying.
My guess is, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY, AND ARE JUST FLAPPING YOUR GUMS.

This is where Trump needs to shrug and say, "Take it or leave it."

How will the Democrats look unreasonable when they represent the majority of the country on this issue? Fifty-nine percent of Americans are against the wall, including 66 percent of independents.

He already made them look unreasonable last week when Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer looked like deer in the headlights and demanded to negotiate in private, not in front of the media.
