Trump made a contract on immigration with the American voters: (1) Wall, (2) End Obama executive orders and actions giving amnesty to illegal aliens, (3) End H1B, etc. Well, the day one promises came and went without being honored, he might be doing something on H1B, but hasn’t killed the program, and the wall? Well, seems like he’s trading it off for something else. That’s not necessarily a double-cross, but his credibility is at risk. If Trump sells out, in my opinion he’s one and done as a president. I expect more of Trump, hold fast, even let the Democrats and RINO republicans shut down government if that’s what it takes. Instead, Trump’s the one rolling over. Disappointing.

If you're taking Trump literally you're making a mistake. Trump needs to taken seriously but not literally. He's gotten an amazing amount of stuff done even with the GOP congress backstabbing him left and right.

Trump's reform on H1B is very good. He's punishing companies that are abusing it and redefining it into it's original purpose to bring over talent that American doesn't have. He can't eliminate it because the GOP congress and their big business buddies.

>and the wall? Well, seems like he’s trading it off for something else. That’s not necessarily a double-cross, but his credibility is at risk.

It might not be the right time to shutdown the government to get things done. Hell Trump may not even have enough 50 GOP votes in the senate for the wall even with the 60 requirement. Trump's primary problem in governing is the lack of congress being willing to work with him. They may call themselves republicans or conservatives but they're still owned by the guys who fought so hard to stop Trump.

He needs time to fix this or we need to apply pressure to congress for him. Those congress critters need to know that they're going to get primaried if they don't implement Trumps agenda.
