Here’s my issue with the wall stuff

EVERY president in my lifetime has had some grand campaign policy plan that, when finally enacted into law, was a watered down version or was partially sold on lies

Obamacare is a huge example: obama ran around the nation promising public option and nobody losing their plan.

Bush, Reagan, Clinton, etc all fulfilled promises that were slightly or materially different from what they promised on the campaign trail.

It’s a basic political activity to promise voters shite.

You guys just want to hold trump to a much higher standard. If he gets the wall built, that is absolutely a promise fulfilled. Who is paying is a separate issue.

Yeah, but it's different because Trump and Trumpkins aren't saying that they got something "slightly different." They are moving the goal posts and calling people idiots, are they not?
