He says there’s a 10 foot wall around it. There isn’t. Liar!
First, he signaled he would sign the continuing resolution passed by the Senate which did not include money for the wall. Then, pressured by Fox News, he said he wouldn’t.
The Vice President floated the idea of compromising in $2.5 billion for the wall. Then Trump said he wouldn’t do it.
Trump would have had a deal last year with $25 billion for the wall in exchange for taking care of the DACA immigrants and others but then he decided he wouldn’t do it.
Trump believes in winning. That means someone will lose. This deal will require a compromise where both sides get something and give something. Trump does not appear to be willing to give anything.
Why should the Democrats give in? The wall is a poor idea – there are better ways to protect the border. Polls show the public does not want the wall. Only the Trump cult, which is a minority, wants it. The public blames the Republicans for the shutdown which is correct when both houses of Congress and the White House were controlled by them. Trump doesn’t care about the people hurt by the shutdown. He says, with no factual basis, that the employees are mostly Democrats. Trump only cares about his cult members, not the whole country.
Federal workers should be used as political pawns by Trump. Democrats will pass continuing resolutions and Trump should sign them. McConnell is gutless and won’t bring up a bill similar to the one previously passed.
Trump’s non-stop lying doesn’t help either.
Trump defended Russia’s invasion of Afghanistan, too. Which side is he on?
Republicans control the presidency and both houses of Congress. They’re just trying to put Schumer vs. Pelosi. They are also lying when they say she doesn’t have enough votes to be elected Speaker.
It is good that Trump finally visited American troops in a war zone. I commend him for this. However, as usual he told lies and brought politics into what should have been a non-political event.
Trump lied about how long it has been since troops got a pay raise and how much it was. Does the dotard think they don’t know the truth about their paychecks? Who is he fooling – I guess it’s his cult. He has told these lies many times before.
Trump also bashed Democrats. Totally inappropriate.
He signed MAGA hats. That is totally inappropriate, too. I blame Trump and the military for this one.
Sad!
What a piece of crap as a human being.
This is nonsense. As a retired federal employee, I am well aware of the complex government contracting process to make sure bidding is fair. You don’t just award a contract. I assume this is all a lie.
Sad!
