Whitey, it wasn’t totally unforeseen. Remember the Gorelick “wall?” We had the intelligence, supposedly it was not shared and resulted in the failure. As a result DHS was created - another big government failure.
However, the true blame lies squarely at Bill Clinton’s feet didn’t hear Donald say that, maybe had he amplified his comments a bit and threaded the needle instead of hammering Conservatives, like I said the scorched earth may not work, what if many in the base say he is just too radical or unhinged and they simply stay at home, he can’t win with his ceiling of 35 percent not possible, he needs the rest of the GOPe base to succeed.... Maybe he pulls it off by picking the right VP, I understand that was how Reagan did it again up until the last debate I could easily have been swayed Trump, I don’t think Jeb was ever a threat, he would have been more savvy to hedge and go after Cruz only and didn’t need to bring up the GWB stuff and then keep on going on and on about it.
