Dont worry, tomorrow he will make some new outrageous statements. In the end, even if they do build the wall, it's not going to stop the people from entering the USA

Well if he didnt call one for PuertoRico bit rich calling one for his precious wall. Why doesnt he ask all his trillion dollar taxcut mates to fund his precious.

This is Trump's Brexit. Untenable yet he's finished if he backs down.

He’s feeling the heat - so he should- idiotic grandstanding - he should back down completely- he has got to learn that he can’t treat government like he treated his companies / Government is completely different to corporate

Trump is unfit to hold public office.

His party is kicking back.

Never seen such obsession with one man, ever 😁

He could get China to pay for it thus bypassing Congress.
