Trump is probably stomping his feet, hitting his head against the wall, screaming and crying over not getting his ridiculous wall. Meanwhile, Mexico is laughing at him!
His ridiculous wall? This is congress' wall from 2006 that both Schumer and Obama helped pass but didn't fund. Mexico is the laughing stock of the world and has been for some time now.
This border wall hysteria is being generated by Trump to distract from the recent Manafort news.
Nearly everything this guy does is a calculated distraction or to change the subject. Hes a pure con man
I'm disappointed that the Democrats have flip flopped on the border issue. It wasn't that long ago that the top Dems told us how important border security was. What happened?
The Democrats did not flip flop. They have been consistently for border security. They voted for and continue to support the $1.3 Bil border security package that Pelosi, Schumer, McConnell and Trump all agreed to.
Once Rush Limbaugh and Coulter made a stink, Trump reversed himself and said he won't take the $1.3 Billion. The only one who flip-flopped is Trump.
The Dems do want to support border security, but not the "wall" that he is promoting. You say Pelosi and Schumer shouldn't trust Donald? I think that is the other way around! Trump shouldn't be holding innocent people's lively hood as hostage. They have done an honest days work, they should be paid. He is putting his own interest ahead of the working people of america. He shouldn't have deceived folks about Mexico paying for the wall (although common sense should have kicked in to know that wasn't going to happen).
And why is it that they were ok with a wall back in 2006 but not now? Inquiring minds want to know. I'd rather hold a few thousand workers hostage for a short time over border security than put 320 million lives at risk.
Donald Trump's words from a speech in 2004: “Don’t give up. Don’t allow it to happen. If there’s a concrete wall in front of you, go through it, go over it, go around it, but get to the other side of that wall.”
He had control of both houses for the last 2 years if this was such an urgency he could have proposed and had approved the necessary funding....
You need to take a course in political science and find out how congress actually works. A couple of proposals were made in the past but neither side would give.
The wall is the best kind of security, duh. Just ask the Border Patrol or are you one of those who thinks you know better than them?
