Your second term is going to go down as a disaster. The people that voted for you voted for 1. Secure Borders 2. Less Spending and 3rd Prosecute the War and take the battle to our enemies.
Your time is fast running out Mister President and it looks like my wife and I have wasted our vote. Our borders are sieves. The spending bill had $25 billion in pure pork and 21 Marines died in the last two days.
As the father of an active Marine I believe I have the right to ask the President why our son's and daughter's are nothing more than shooting gallery ducks, when you promised that no enemy would be safe and no country that harbored them would be safe. Those terrorists are coming from bases in Syria and Iran, do something or stop asking our troops to play target.
Do something about the illegals swamping our nation. I don't care that they are cheap labor, they are breaking the law being here. If I had the job to search for these trespassers I could round up hundreds in a few hours within 10 miles of here.
Lastly, you have the ability to line item veto pork in the budget. What did you veto, Nada. Some 68 people on an island in the State of Washington are getting a bridge that is going to cost you and I $250 million.
I am almost ready to give up. Putting so much into the last election has pr oven to be a wasted exercise.

Not true. The GOP Congress tried to give the President that ability in the late 90's, but it was declared unconstitutional by the SC.

take the battle to our enemies.

Haven't you noticed that the terrorist attacks have not occurred on US soil?
Your son (Bless him) and his fellow troops are volunteers. They volunteered to keep the rest of us safe, and so far, they have been tremendously successful.
