Again, FW, who cares what Kelly says or doesn’t say? The one to watch is the President. And you can’t take what he says literally because he’s often purposely misleading. You must watch what he does. And what he’s doing looks good to me. This Wall thing was never going to be easy.
Trump does since he was forced to correct him this morning with a tweet.
Do try and keep up, ok?
Right on all points, Miss M! I will never, EVER, forget the mindless, hair-on-fire reaction to Trump saying he’d sign anything they put in front of him. The panic was worthy of very young children who are told on Christmas eve that Christmas has been cancelled. I’d feel sorry for the kids, but not for adults who willingly choose hysteria over rationality.
Trump always meant he’d sign anything that included his top priorities. That’s how he makes deals. Not, ‘You get everything and I get nothing,’ — as the panic button crowd imagined. Rather, Trump gets his main priorities or there’s no deal. That’s straight out of his book: no deal is better than a bad deal.
But the hysteria cabal will keep going strong. They seem to need periodic spells of panic the way users need a periodic fix. There’s no reasoning with such a POV. Oh well.
