Santa Elena Canyon in Big Bend N.P. I went there three years ago. It's a beautiful sight. The left side of the canyon in the photo is in Mexico.

He went from they all have to go during the campaign, to we’ll work something out for the Dreamers, to now they can rest easy and only the bad hombres are going to be removed.
Only removing the illegal aliens already convicted of other crimes will leave millions of illegal aliens here with the opportunity to harm or kill Americans.
We should not have to wait until that happens before they are removed.

If Trump keeps backpedaling he’s going to pedal himself right out of a second term, because many of his supporters will come to view him as just another bullshitter like his predecessors.
Fake News propaganda.
No. “Extreme Patrolling” will not work!!
All it takes is a new President in the Obama mold to tell all patrols to stand down and we have exactly the same situation we have right now.
There must be some physical barrier along the entire border.
I guess we will see. U may be right about the future.
But for the moment Trump looks weak.
Rush wasn’t impressed. Neither am I.
Supreme Court.
It’s a tragedy that everything Trump does has to be decided by the SC.
Building the wall will fix much, living in Texas I live the effects of an open border every day. The wall will go a long way in restoring law and order.
Thick glass with water fountains on our side.
Claymores with trip wires, add toe poppers, throw in command detonated mines plus a number of barrels of JP4 and white phosphorous would work.
True but its not surprising.
Having someone in the WH who did not come up through or is beholden to the political class breaks a lot of rice bowls!
On both sides of the aisle.
I’ll take whatever works.
Trump can fight until his face turns blue, he still does not have dictatorial powers to initiate spending bills. That power belongs to ONLY the House of Representatives, per US Constitution.
If the congress critters are hell bent on denying funds for the wall, the best POTUS can do is veto the spending bill. Then either the congress OVERRIDES his veto -or- the government comes to a screeching halt from lack of authorized funding.
Sometimes I wish we were under a benevolent dictatorship, such as in history by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk of Turkey, emperor Ashoka of the Maurya dynasty in India, or the Chinese emperor who built the 22,000 mile long wall which still stands after a millennium and served the purpose of stopping invaders from Mongolia.
Yep, that kept them away. At least fair warning.
Are you afraid of a shutdown over border wall funding?
I’m not.

So true!....So true!
The fake is getting easy to spot!

I saw somewhere on FR today (maybe Drudge? I forget) a report that illegal border crossings reported by a property/ranch owner on the border are down 90% since Trump took over.
He is already making a difference.
That wouldn’t be happening if Hitlery or crazy Bernie were occupying the Oval Office.
Results matter, I agree. If these trends continue (no reason yet to think they won’t) Trump will be able to claim major leaps forward after 35 years of the problem being ignored. Even if there isn’t 2,200 miles of concrete and steel between us and Mexico.
Hope you’ll consider the results.
