He is not rolling on anything. We can’t have government shutdown when we are facing down both Korea and Iran. I can’t believe there are Americans out there who can’t figure that one out.
He needs a congress that will stand behind him instead of fighting him. Laura Ingram said last night that the senators are laughing about the wall. Laughing and saying it will never be built. Those vile swamp creatures have no connection to real Americans.
How stupid are those who believe that... And yes, folks should laugh at the petty excuses for no wall. Sorry, the big early winners here are Ryan, Schumer and the the district judges. Perhaps we could add in Comey and the entire intelligence apparatus.

POTUS has to go full Alinsky to get it done. He needs to personalize his attacks. Invite angel moms to White House and have his allies do the same on The Hill. POTUS TV interviews with local TV stations., etc., etc. He needs to use the bully pulpit and really humiliate those disgusting beltway pigs holding up the wall until they cry Uncle.
All great executives focus on two big things, one which they do themselves and one which they delegate to their next in command. Trump has no choice but to focus on NK right now, while it is merely a threat to the civilized world and before it becomes an existential threat. This is where 50 years of arms control policy wonk snowflakes have landed us [thank Harvard and Georgetown].
“We can’t have government shutdown when we are facing down both Korea and Iran. I can’t believe there are Americans out there who can’t figure that one out.”
Nonsense.
All and everything having to do with National Security would not “shut down”. All of that would be fully funded.
Your post is a great example of how neocon foreign policy undermines conservatism at home.
We can’t fight hard for the wall because of Iran and North Korea? Sure. That makes perfect sense. We can’t stop a real invasion of America happening right now that will soon give us a permanent socialist leaning Democrat electoral majority because of two ramshackle third world countries on the other side of the world.
This is Bush era big government, open borders neoconservatism reborn. It’s amazing how quick so many conservatives go into this mode when the liberal media hypes up third world counties as somehow being a military threat to the US.
