Actually, we should stop worrying about illegal immigrants. The more important job is stopping the spread of ISIS in the civil war in Syria. As anyone with any knowledge of military tactics knows, all good defensive lines are multi-echelon. We need to build a rear line in our defensive plan against ISIS. Now where would be a good place? How about along our border with Mexico. That should work fine. No need to go to Congress for funding; just take it out of the spending allocated for the war against ISIS.

Brilliant. Since the Iraq War, no president has gone back to Congress to authorize any of their new military initiatives against terrorism, wherever they happened. So why should an anti-terrorism initiative on our Southern Border be different? If we didn’t need Congressional authorization to go into Syria to defend this country, why would Trump need Congress’s approval to build a border wall against ISIS infiltration here?
