“Mark is a true believer and American Patriot. He will do a great job!” Trump wrote on Twitter.

President Donald Trump announced — via Twitter — on Sunday morning that Mark Morgan would be taking over as the new head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement .

Morgan has already publicly endorsed Trump’s call for a wall and welcomed his decision to declare a national emergency over immigration at the southern border with Mexico. “The president had no choice, Congress has failed, they continue to fail,” he said in a February interview on CNN. After signing a new spending bill, Trump declared the emergency and began the process of attempting to reallocate funds approved by Congress to build the structure. The decision has been challenged legally, with even many conservatives criticizing the president’s actions

Obama blamed Clinton’s “soulless campaign” for 2016 loss to Trump: BookNew edition of “Obama: The Call of History” claims former President Barack Obama and his team blamed the 2016 candidate Hillary Clinton for her loss to current President Donald Trump. OBAMA LOST THE ELECTION, not Clinton. He turned away white, rural voters, in his final months in office, with a continual stream of all black gatherings at The White House. I hear this frequently from my ignorant, red-neck, double-wide living relatives. If Obama did such a great job and Hillary reoerested the status quo as the book states, then why did she lose? Attempts to further divide the country and Dem party will not work for me and hopefully not for Dem voters.Whoever reigns as the 2020 Dem candidate has my vote straight down the ballot. I'll vote for a potted plant if it means restoring dignity to the office of the US President.
