I guess the guy thinks that Mueller time is over and he can go back to his old crazy stuff….
The same Mexico that hundreds of thousands of Americans fly into every year to vacation is the country Donald Trump continues to use as a whipping post….
The same Mexico that is one of America’s bigger trade partners?
Donald Trump rants against?
The same place that MORE migrants are showing up to enter this country is the same place Donald Trump seems to showcasing?
What is wrong with this guy?
His wall ain’t gonna stop the migration….
BUT?
Yes….he CAN end up calling it ‘Trump’s Wall’…..
A neat trick for a New York Real Estate Guy…
Get the taxpayers to pay for his newest project….
A ugly assed wall …..
President Trump on Thursday renewed his threat to close the southern border, claiming in a morning tweet that Mexico is doing “NOTHING” to stop the flow of undocumented immigrants into the United States.
“They are all talk and no action,” Trump said in his tweet. “Likewise, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador have taken our money for years, and do Nothing. The Dems don’t care, such BAD laws. May close the Southern Border!”
Trump’s tweet comes a day after the nation’s top border official warned that the U.S. immigration enforcement system along the nation’s southern boundary is at “the breaking point” and said that authorities are having to release migrants into the country after background checks because of a crush of asylum-seeking families with children.
Kevin McAleenan, the commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, said that for the first time in more than a decade, his agency is “reluctantly” performing direct releases of migrants, meaning they are not turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, they are not detained, they are not given ankle bracelets to track their movements and they are allowed to leave with just a notice to appear in court at a later date.
Trump has threatened to close the border before but not followed through…..
President Trump on Friday called on Mexico to stop all illegal immigration, escalating a repeated threat by adding a timeline: Mr. Trump said he would close large swaths or all of the southern border as early as “next week” if the Mexican government did not “immediately” stop all undocumented migrants.
The threat to close the border is one Mr. Trump has made and not followed through on before — he suggested closing it during the December government shutdown, and also earlier this week in accusing Central American governments of squandering American aid. But he has not yet attached a short time frame to taking such a drastic measure….

The US and Mexico trade about $1.7 billion in goods daily, according to the US Chamber of Commerce, which said closing the border would be ‘‘an unmitigated economic debacle’’ that would threaten 5 million American jobs….
Boston Globe….
Closing the Border, should it ever happen (unlikely), would immediately wreck a host of border towns on both sides which have lived for decades on changing but symbiotic relationships, for example:
* El Paso, Texas, & Ciudad Juárez
* San Diego, Calif., & Tijuana
*Calexico, Calif., & Mexicali
*Brownsville, Texas & Matamoros
*Laredo, Texas, & Nuevo Laredo
*Nogales, Arizona, & Nogales (Sonora State)
Trump don’t give a hoot!
He seems he’ll bent on getting his name on wall made with taxpayer money!
Yea….
He’s looking to piss a LOT of people off…
If he tries hard enough?
Maybe he can get ALL the border states to vote AGANIST HIM and other Republicans?
Even Texas (hasn’t voted for a Democrat since Jimmy Carter in 1976) and Arizona (which Ross Perot threw to Bill Clinton in 1992). California (partly due to Pete Wilson’s anti-immigrant Proposition 187 in 1990) and New Mexico are now reliably Blue states in Presidential elections.
Anyway, I thought that Mexico was going to pay for the Wall. He promised us (loud cheers at pre-election Trump rallies), and unlike those shifty dishonest career politicians, isn’t an outsider expected to keep his promises ?
No he WANTS us, the taxpayers to pay, for HIS freaking wall…
On the Trump promises?
That goes along with him telling the TRUTH?
