Which is EXACTLY what trump realized about his base in the campaign. He knew they would completely forget about his promises, disregard his dishonesty, make excuses for his past behavior, and generally engage in short-attention-span politics.
And yes, trump’s claim about Mexico paying for the wall was bogus. He knew it then, he knows it now. That said, once trump got a bunch of fanatics to chant with him about it, there ain’t no goin back.
Freedom caucus is part of the George Soros deep state!!
A core group of the hard-line House Freedom Caucus is urging President Donald Trump against the explosive step of declaring a national emergency to build his wall.
Multiple Republicans in the conservative group have privately raised their concerns with the Trump administration, fearing it would lead to a years-long legal standoff that Democrats could win while setting a dangerous precedent for the presidency, according to more than a dozen lawmakers and GOP aides. They want Trump to hold out for a deal with Democrats, regardless of how long the partial government shutdown drags on.
By the way–and I haven’t seen anyone point this out for some reason----this BS about the new trade agreement creating enough savings to pay for the wall:
Uh, that would be savings that should’ve been realized IN ADDITION to the money Mexico specifically pays for the wall, as Trump promised they would.
Any way you cut it, the wall money comes out of American’s pockets.
The laundry list of ways conservatives have sold out in utter hypocrisy, is staggering at this point. How do they even show their faces?
When you have anywhere between 12- 22 million illegal aliens running around in your country people quit taking the party seriously when they say “Were all about border security” it just looks silly at this point plz stop.
