EXCLUSIVE: Trump Reveals the First Thing He Would Do If He Is President Again
The Epoch Times ^ | February 6, 2022 | Ivan Pentchoukov

Posted on 02/06/2022 12:09:32 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Former President Donald Trump’s said that if he wins the presidency again, his first executive action would be to restart construction of the wall on the southern U.S. border.

The president told Epoch TV’s “Kash’s Corner” on Jan. 31 that completing the wall has a significance that extends beyond domestic policy because it would project an image of strength to China’s Xi Jinping and other world leaders.

“First of all, the wall, even for him,” Trump said referring to Xi. “You know why? Because when he sees millions of people pouring into our country, he loses respect for our country.” The interview will premiere at 8 p.m. Eastern on Feb. 7.

“When him and Putin and Kim Jong Un and Iran’s leaders, when they’re watching millions of people walk into our country … They lose respect.”

President Joe Biden rescinded or froze dozens of Trump’s border policies upon taking office in January last year. The relaxed policies have led to a flood of illegal aliens crossing the border in volumes unseen for decades.

Border Patrol agents apprehended 1.9 million illegal crossers in 2021, four times as many as were apprehended in 2020 under Trump. The number of unaccompanied children crossing the U.S.–Mexico border reached an all-time high in 2021.

Biden froze the construction of the wall with an executive order issued on the day of his inauguration. Millions of dollars worth of materials have languished in the deserts of Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas since and could now be sold for scrap for pennies on the dollar. The wall’s accompanying roads, cameras, and sensors have remained uninstalled or unfinished.

Like I said, you won’t be hanging around here long trolling against Trump.

Next thing...

Start rounding up all the illegals that Brandon let into the country, and send them back to wherever they came from.

Just the facts.

That's only part of the story. Do you work for CNN or MSNBC?

If no federal funds could go to illegals (directly or indirectly through states or localities) that would resolve a large chunk of the problem.

No federal contracts or subcontracts for corporations that hired illegals would also have a positive impact.

See post 86—no funds to illegals, a large percentage of the illegals will want to leave.

Trump had 4 years as the leader of the greatest nation on earth to complete the wall. He only managed to complete 47 miles of new primary border wall during his tenure. (Source : US Customs and Border Protection report January 8, 2021)

Just the facts.


Apparently, you missed one “fact.” Trump wasn’t king. He was a President operating without the support of “his” party. A political party that has defacto supported open borders for the pat 30 years. And who can we thank for that? Us. Time and again we send human debris to “represent” us in the swamp. That’s on us and not President Trump. Obviously, it’s easier to blame Trump than look in the mirror.

Now now. Don't be hard on him. He says he gave "thousands of dollars" to Trump.

And the Jacksonian response? “Judge __xx___ has made his/her ruling- now let him/her enforce it”.

Exactly. Destroy the DC cocktail circuit and the lobbies that
buy and sell our politicians.

Still scratching my head after reading “If” and ask: “why the doubt”? Is d’rat cheating so predominate we just assume
they’ve won again and like last time, we roll over for the ‘new boss, just as we did for the old boss”?

Does anyone really believe there’ll ever be a legitimate election again in this country?
The 2024 steal has already been stolen.

It’s more than 30 years of open boarder RINOs. President Eisenhower was the last Republican to enforce the borders.
