It is not possible to be pure. This republic has always been like this. There is a reason lawmaking is compared to making a sausage.

I'm sorry you had to find out this way. I'm sure it is a let down, but making laws is a lot different than living your life on your terms. Appreciate the 75% of what you are getting, instead of nothing, and then move on with your life. Enjoy your family and whatever you do in life.

Remember Trump is one man, who can't pass any laws on his own. Why people thought he could go to DC and order things done is something I never understood. You are correct, I don't think there will be a wall like the Great Wall of China, but the reality is it will be much better than we have now. Trump has done a lot on his own and we are much better off than if Hillary had won. So you need to think on those terms. But never think you will always get what you want from politics. Life isn't that way, so why should politics be any different. Be realistic and happy for what is achieved.

And here I am as the Spiritual Guy to remind people that God never issued us any kind of guarantee of a perfect earth; in fact we have been warned of the opposite.

However even in the midst of flaws, the gains are impressive when the right Power is behind them.

The currently still quiet Power behind the presidency is the spiritual support that Donald Trump has been seeking, even being urged on by Mike Pence himself. Trump is the neon sign here. Pence and a gaggle of ministers are busy keeping it plugged in.

In Trump should we trust? No. But in God we most definitely should trust, and if God can get a Democrat playboy like Donald Trump to stand up for more of what’s right than for what’s wrong, we ought to be rejoicing and lifting our hands in praise to the Lord rather than waggling our fingers in blame at what’s still wrong.

You're correct. I don't think any of us realized how polluted the swamp is. As I said, the things that bother me are the unforced errors. Ivanka and Jared in the WH is not good....one thing the voters who voting against when choosing Trump is dynasties.

We're better off with him, for sure. But with this tax bill? Perhaps it should be scrapped. President Trump did not campaign on the rich getting richer.
