We would criticize our president, who we loved dearly.” “People need to understand something: Everybody is imperfect,” he noted. “We’re imperfect. Our presidents are imperfect.

Apparently, liberals in Congress and the mainstream media need one more reminder that building the wall is non-negotiable. So please, sign our petition to demand that we BUILD THE WALL. Thank you, Donald J. Trump President of the United States
