All correspondence should be directed to the WH c/o D J Trump. He was the one on live television saying he'd take the hit and not blame anyone else..

Oh OK @HerKing

Glad we finally agree something. 😊
But hey he did accept full responsibility on live television.@jackjjackson
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
It’s more like he has taken credit. This will be interesting. @monte3
monte3 · 70-79, M
Seriously what is his upside? @jackjjackson

The largest voting block wants “the wall” in some form. By largest voting block I mean the largest plurality that agrees and supports any one political issue. They don’t want a fifth century wall they want a 21st century technology filled border barrier added to the areas where nothing exists together with more and better border security along the entire border it’s his signature issue and the one that will get him re-elected. It’s a win if the Dems continue to do zero. It’s a win if more “wall” goes up. Him sitting tight while the Senate kills any House approved bills works to his advantage even more daily. @monte3

So the wall that Mexico was going to pay for is no wall and will not be paid for by the Mexicans?
Also trying to raise the fear of rapists and murderers pouring over the border to the level of hysteria didn’t work so well in the midterms.
Truthfully I am, and I am sure 97.83% of Americans want border security, see increases in expulsions under Obama, but Trump wants an ego boast.

Not exactly..he was going to sign off the 100% approved bi partisan bill....until he watched Fox and heard Coulter...then heard Limbaugh..both telling him what a pussy he was for accepting, then and only then did he throw his rattle out of his pram and decide (again) to revert back to the same scare tactics that lost him the mid term in the house..

Small but important point you overlooked.

No reason it can’t and won’t happen. @monte3

You’re wearing your tin foil hat again. It’s a new year take it off. @HerKing
HerKing · 61-69, M
@jackjjackson Is that your usual 'Oh yeah, he did do/say that, but to confirm it would suggest that Fox and the rest of the right wing media own him' attempt to avoid things? 🤔
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
1. I don’t watch Fox
2. I don’t know what the President watches when and what prompts any particular action of ANYONE. @HerKing
HerKing · 61-69, M
@jackjjackson Oh puuurleeease!! Don't try to insult our intelligence. You think Hannity got on the podium at the pre mid terms supporting Trump because Fox is impartial? 😂

Trump watches it when he gets up, tweets what he and Hannity discussed the night before, waits for the talking suits to approve and continues the merry go round of mutual admiration.

He has had 41 interviews with Trump/Fox news since taking office and the nearest they have been to asking difficult questions is asking when he'll be back on the golf course.

Now, stop being a silly boy.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Sounds like You on the other hand watch a lot of FOX 😲 @HerKing
HerKing · 61-69, M
@jackjjackson Nope, and not even a very good deflection (although entirely predicable). What do you think Trump's 'executive time' is every day? Perusing security reports? Reading the works of Shakespear? Writing his thesis for a PhD in astro physics?
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Why doesn’t you pen a letter to the WH and ask instead of promoting tinfoil hat theories? @HerKing
HerKing · 61-69, M
@jackjjackson Oh bless you!! You need a job instead of persuing your craven devotion to the orange dolt.

@jackjjackson immitation is the sincerest form of flattery. 😂.

Your orange idol is really losing it now. Who has poster of himself on a table when doing a cabinet meeting, and clearly told to say it by Putin that the old Soviet Union invaded Afghaniatan because of Terrorism...no they didn't. The Vatican has walls!!

Shit, what is he on?? 🤣
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Certainly not the bagfuls of mental health drugs you are. @HerKing
HerKing · 61-69, M
@jackjjackson Is that it? You know he's demented don't you?

WINH, NW, you? All? @HerKing

@jackjjackson What are you talking about now son?
