If you were elected president after decades of politicians doing nothing about the millions of illegals pouring into our country every year, committing crimes, dealing drugs, driving drunk, molesting children and killing Americans like Kate Steinle, and your central campaign promise -- repeated every day -- was to build a wall, wouldn't you have spent the entirety of your transition period working on getting it done?
Wouldn't you have been building prototypes, developing relationships with key congressional allies and talking to military leaders about using the Seabees or the Army Corps of Engineers to build the wall?
Wouldn't you skip the inauguration and take the oath of office in San Diego so you could get started on supervising wall construction immediately after putting your hand on the Bible and being sworn in as the leader of the free world?
You would if you meant it.
Well, Donald Trump didn't do that.
OK, sure he could have taken the oath in D.C., gone to a few balls, then started the wall on day two of his presidency. But he didn't do that either.
Maybe I'm a literalist. A zealot. When people kept telling me to be patient -- the wall is coming! -- I nursed a private hope that I was wrong, and they were right.
It is now crystal clear that one of two things is true: Either Trump never intended to build the wall and was scamming voters all along, or he has no idea how to get it done and zero interest in finding out.
He sacrifices every opportunity to make the wall happen.
For two years, Trump pretended to believe the president of the United States needs express authorization from Congress to defend the nation's borders and blamed the Republican majority for not "funding" the wall.

So is the electorate. The wall, or its over.
I’m not going to continue to watch you flounder.
Believe what you want, and do as much damage to Trump as you like.

Thank you.
I’m not going to continue discussing this with you guys.
I’ve made it clear what my thoughts are.
Later...

Yes, I would chip in also.
Bud we don’t even have a row boat to fall back on.
I’ve had my say.

I don’t see the value in trashing him here
Every other entity known to man is trashing him.
Now Conservatives want to do it here also?
Nope.
If he is being trashed here, maybe he should reverse course.
Sessions may well go down as the the fool or double agent who brought down not only the Trump Administration, but the US itself. We are on the brink of a permanent collapse of the existing social and legal systems and catastrophic invasion at the border.
Thank You, Sir.
He should reverse course or lose his base. Your link is irrelevant.
She’s the Adams apple of my eye!
Outstanding post.
Thanks.
That’s your argument?
