Tuesday night, President Trump delivered a powerful speech from the Oval Office regarding the need for strong border security. During the speech, Trump laid out specific facts explaining why the country needs to secure the border and how his plan would accomplish this. According to Fox News, at one point during the speech, Trump directly addressed his colleagues, stating, "Wealthy politicians ... don't build walls because they hate the people on the outside, but because they love the people on the inside." The speech was effective and convincing.
Prior to the speech, Democrats demanded an opportunity to issue a rebuttal. (It is difficult to understand how to rebut a speech you have not yet heard unless you are going to make canned remarks.) Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer addressed the American public and, predictably, implied that the president is a liar.

Yes, and with all due respect to professional clowns.
Rodeo and other types.
They wrote their remarks before they heard Trump’s speech, and not one person from the media calls them out on this.
I would love for Trump to get everything together in a nice neat bundle, then go to the American people again from the oval office and say.
1. He’s declaring an Emergency on our southern border and has instructed the Army to build the wall.
2. Money for the wall, all $25 billion will come from the unused money that was returned to the gov’t (by the armed forces).
3. He will sign the current bill that calls for an additional $1.5 billion for the wall.
4. He will reopen the gov’t.
Why on earth do they demand ‘equal time’ when every single MSM entity is a wall-to-wall, 27/7 Liberal infomercial?
This is why right after the mid terms ,Trump asked congress to give the speaker job to Pelosi. He can play her like a fiddle.
How dare they ignore the Occasional Kotek? /s
POTUS, Trump has a working game plan on the table. He should implement it by tomorrow morning.
Declare a National Emergency on the southern border, have the USA Military fund and build the Wall, etc., end the Federal Government shutdown and ignore any antics from Democrats, the Media, and any judicial action whatsosever.
The government furloughed workers will be overjoyed and they will nullify any Democrat moves. Do it, Trump!!!
