Trump Expected to Order Mexican Border Wall
NY Slimes ^ | 1/24/2017 | Maggie Haberman

WASHINGTON — President Trump will order the construction of a Mexican border wall on Wednesday, White House officials said, and is mulling plans to stop Syrian refugees from entering the country and to slash immigration of refugees from “terror prone” nations, perhaps as early as this week.

During an appearance at the Department of Homeland Security on Wednesday, Mr. Trump plans to sign an executive order to direct federal funds to be shifted toward the building of a wall on the southern border that became a signature promise of his campaign. He has argued that doing so is vital to gaining control over the illegal flow of immigrants into the United States.

Do you think he has slept since the inauguration?

He has said that he does not need much sleep, and he is used to a grueling schedule. I think he will be able to choose a pace that enables him to get a lot done without burning himself out.

I don’t want a break from all this winning even if it knocks all of us unconscious. We’ve waited nearly thirty years for a presidency that took action like this. Not since Reagan have we had a leader in the White House who does what he says and says what he means. The left, the RINOS and the MSM are being completely overrun. They’re not used to strong presidents who defy them and don’t cower in their presence. The bullies are getting their crap thrown back in their faces and they have no f***ing clue how to deal with it.

Yup. Schumer is as filthy as the POS who goes by the name: Paul Ryan.

Obama is gone. And Trump is doing what he said he would do. If I’m dreaming, don’t wake me up.

Looking good, but first reports don’t have Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, or Afghanistan on the banned list!

There’s certainly some complicated fiscal fairy dust that needs to happen, but “redirecting” might mean taking funds that were already appropriated years ago by GWB for the same purpose, but never executed. This would avoid the time lag for a new appropriation. And the wild card is how much Mexico might pay.

Whatever the case, it’s called WINNING and my head is getting dizzy from it.

Cruz wouldn’t be finished with his preening and speechifying yet.

Trump has to do far better than Reagan did! But just being there sitting in the Oval Office and signing papers makes 65 million Americans irate to the core!
