Again all of that is wonderful and give Trump credit for fulfilling his promise to build the wall.

But stick to the point. Trump is accountable for his promise for Mexico to pay with imposed tariffs, which I said all last year was impossible. U.S tariffs imposed on Mexico is NOT how this wall is being paid for.

Common, hold politicians accountable or you ratify wrongful political behavior which includes repeated unfulfilled promises which got us into this mess to begin with.

You speak for the corrupt establishment when you call holding politicians accountable “#NeverHappyEver”. They love hearing that.

99% of conservatives could care less so long as the wall is built.

No politician, not even Reagan, can fulfill every promise. You don't seem to grasp that.

Just one thing. The CR was part of the LAST so called Budget under Obama.

It is called a Continuing Resolution because it insures the Money will be there to continue what the original so called Budget outlined while keeping the Government funded.

In other words, it authorized the continued borrowing of funds so the Government would not be “shut down”, whatever the hell that means.

In this case, the new Administration was able to change some parts of the already planned spending, something that I heard has only happened once before.

We may be dealing with Apples versus Oranges here.

Just sayin’...

Personalty i think a tariff on imported Mexican Goods is a great way to pay for the wall it helps rebuild American industry at the same time. This is something we desperately need if we are to stand a chance against rise indistrial powers like china in the 21st century.
An industrial advantage is a military advantage as it means more misses, more drones, larger robot army that can project power in the modern army.

But if Mexico wants to caught up the money directly we can continue to allow them to enrich themselves on american industrial jobs
