Trump heeds the pleading of his base, says he won’t sign bill without border wall funding

Hallelujah! What a difference a day makes.

After it looked yesterday like President Trump had fallen victim to Paul Ryan’s RINO betrayal, today Ryan had to publicly announce that the president would veto a stopgap spending bill that doesn’t include funding for the Wall.

This great news and I think that we owe the turnaround to the loud outcry from the Freedom Caucus, Ann Coulter, Angel Moms, and patriotic Americans everywhere who held Trump’s feet to the fire.

Still no guarantees Trump will get the funding, but at least he didn’t get PWN’d by Chuck and Nancy.

There is only one reason most of us voted for Donald Trump (other than he ain’t Hillary) and that’s because he promised us a “big beautiful wall.” Get ‘er done!

  • Trump can’t get the wall. How much is the US paying Mexico to keep the caravan people on the Mexico side. Or is Mexico going to starve them?
    Tough row to hoe. Paying for thousands of caravan people in detention camps. Who’s paying for that? You and me.
    No wall will stop these people.
    I just got the answer on paying the wall. Trump is leaving Syria and with that money, he’ll buy that wall with plenty over to pay Mexico and the detention centers . That’s it!

    • I believe you might be right about the funding but not about the efficacy of the Wall in stopping border crossers.
