Only 52 miles of new border wall in 4 years. Sorry Candace, Trump failed to deliver on the wall.

I think that was more a congressional failure. They failed to fund it.

Trump abided by the process, and various groups tied funding for the wall project up in court as long as they could. Once he won in court he went ahead.

If you are criticizing Trump from not going rogue and doing what he pleased in spite of the process, damn the torpedoes, fine. But he did not ‘fail to deliver’ on the wall.

“Only 52 miles of new border wall in 4 years.”

BS. You must get your news from PMSNBC/CNN.

The only one in the field that would have built a wall. Cruz would have most likely folded on it but the rest would have lost to Hillary and we might not even be having this conversation - can you imagine her in charge during a pandemic?

He funded the wall. Paid for and materials purchased with contracts signed.

The courts and congress tied it up for a long time physically and fiscally.

Am I pissed the wall was not finished? Certainly.

Was it Trump’s fault? I am not so certain about that.

With that being said, I am not too worried about what he says about the vaccine even if I disagree. I think Trump has learned to pick and choose his battles a little bit more and triangulate issues. As another poster said above - watch what he does - not what he says.
