How? Seriously, tell me how President Trump reduces the funding to Mexico. The only way he CAN is by using TPA (oh wait, conservatives hate TPA) or forcing it through Congress. It’s quite possible that with his cozy relationships with senior democrats he could indeed form a bipartisan commission to carry out his plans. I sure would like to hear the straight-talking, no nonsense candidate SAY that, though.

Now if Trump has said something along the lines of “I will, without exception, enforce the laws we have now and use the funds appropriated by Congress already to build the wall” I would be behind that 100%. If he said “I will veto any funding measures that come to me without appropriations for building the wall”, I would be ok with that.

Right now, though, Mr. Trump is just chumming the waters without any demonstrable proof that he has any idea how to enact his great plans.

The republicans have the majority in cogress if he can’t force a bill when he’s president then we’ll all eat shot for another 4 years. The leadership of the republicans in congress has to change I there is a mandate that’s a possibility.

I suppose y0u have a winning scenario that has the republicans ridding up on their white chargers and saving us poor damsels in distress.
