What happened to his deal making abilities?


Political deals are not made overnight, unless a government shutdown is looming and sometimes that doesn't even hold up, but you know that already.

They've learned from the master of deflection himself. Nothing is ever Donald Trump's fault.

I really hope its comprehensive immigration reform with a path to citizenship.

1. You are trolling.

So Trump was either trolling his cultists or doesn't understand the constitution?

Or he made the assumption the that a GOP congress would work with him.

ETA: which is required by the constitution.

Which would be brilliant. The wall is a negotiation tactic, and he knows what is best for us.

But why do I have to pay for it now?


We pay 38 billion a year for K-12 Education a year for illegal immigrants children.
The walls high estimate is 20billion total one time cost.

Getting rid of illegals and keeping more out is a net+ for our tax dollars.

That doesn't even consider healthcare, housing, and other social benefits received by illegals and their children at Citizens taxpayer expense.

This is all before actually trying to get Mexico to pay for it by doing things like taxing remittances or even taxing goods from Mexico. I know some of you think that NAFTA made free trade between us and Mexico but it didn't. Mexico has a VAT so any good made outside of Mexico has a built in "tariff" While we don't charge any against them.

Ever notice how the two states with by far the longest border were bright red?

So you are more concerned with political points than whether the wall goes up?

i think you can accomplish more with an army of drones patrolling the border than a wall, and at a fraction of the price, while creating permanent border security jobs vs temporary construction jobs

You really think those children that are in the schools are going anywhere? Trump himself had now said that he's not going to deport dreamers. They are here to stay.
