    Excuses, excuses. And whose going to pay for it, MM?

      You really haven't been paying attention, have you? Trump just negotiated a massive new trade deal with Mexico that will keep more money in the US, will stop China from using Mexico as a backdoor for importing tariff-free goods into the US, and Mexico has stepped up its border security. They recently deported several thousand illegal migrants who were trying to come across Mexico into the US. Not bad, right?

      There's a lot more going on in the world that what your liberal sources are telling you.

        Oh, so Trump wasn't going to do a new trade agreement or deport immigrants but is only doing so to pay for the wall. You know that's not the case, Mm. The fact is that Trumps assertion that Mexico would pay for the wall was just another lie told to his naive supporters. Fact is you would be paying for the wall, which is why there is only 10 miles of new wall erected.

          You mean how now Mexico has started cracking down on caravans coming up from Central America. Mexico's National Migration Institute (INM) released a press release early last week announcing they deported something like 2,303 Honduran migrants between January 18 to 27.

            It is because of the incessant opposition from the left that it has taken this long to finally get started.

              Well of course, Trump knew there'd be incessant opposition from Democrats from the get go, but his problem is that Mexico still won't pay for it.

                  The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                    As well: Trump's border wall requires open storm gates for months at a time to avoid flash floods in certain areas.

                    Great effort this non-Mexico-payed-for wall is turning out to be. We must remember that Trump is a con man, NOT an engineer. But it's got the psychological advantage of keeping Trump's racist supporters happy. Even if it means the dreaded brown people will have to sneak through the open flood gates when the guards aren't looking.

                      Yes, we understand truly we do. Trump can tell whoppers non-stop about anything and everything just so long as he gives you what you want. Great moral standard his conservative Christian support base has don't you think CP?

                      • I enjoyed this cartoon today.

                        Seems like Donald Nixon Trump is going to get away with it, cos the Republican senators are more terrified of their base than they're interested in the constitution or law and order.
