"This is completely false. Stop parroting everything the propagandists tell you."

It seems you are the one parroting crap someone told you. I was quoting his voting record. So, let's just post that record so the ignorant ones as yourself can read it for once instead of repeating crap they read on the Internet.

One Congressional vote does not a story tell. On that same vote, Jim Jordan, Matt Gaetz, Thomas Massie, Louie Ghomert, Mark Meadows, down that line, all voted against that bill. So there was obviously an issue with that particular bill, and DeSantis just voted right along with all the ultra conservatives against it.

The issue in this thread is that Trump never took advantage of his own power as President, to adjust various fees such as money going back to Mexico via a simple executive order. That way, he wouldn’t have even needed any funding from Congress.

That’s what he promised, to make Mexicans pay for the wall, not Americans. But now, since he knows he can say anything and his supporters will still excuse it, Trump is even out on the campaign trail making fun of how gullible his supporters were for believing he was ever going to make Mexico pay for the wall.
