BORDER/DEMS/ELECTION/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “The Shutdown is only because of the 2020 Presidential Election. The Democrats know they can’t win based on all of the achievements of ‘Trump,’ so they are going all out on the desperately needed Wall and Border Security – and Presidential Harassment. For them, strictly politics!” -Donald Trump, Twitter.com, January 3, 2019 […]

DEMS/ELECTION/GOP/PENNSYLVANIA/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “Democratic energy in the perennial battleground state of Pennsylvania is raising questions about President Donald Trump’s ability to replicate his stunning 2016 win in a state Republicans hadn’t carried for nearly two decades. Now, Republicans are picking up the pieces and, in some quarters, calculating that those performances mean nothing good for […]

DEMS/SENATE/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “For FAR TOO LONG Senate Democrats have been Obstructing more than 350 Nominations. These great Americans left their jobs to serve our Country, but can’t because Dems are blocking them, some for two years-historic record. Passed committees, but Schumer putting them on hold. Bad!” –Donald Trump, Twitter.com, January 1, 2019 7:43 pm […]

DEMS/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/WALL: “The Democrats, much as I suspected, have allocated no money for a new Wall. So imaginative!

BORDER/DEMS/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/WALL: “The Democrats will probably submit a Bill, being cute as always, which gives everything away but gives NOTHING to Border Security, namely the Wall. You see, without the Wall there can be no Border Security – the Tech ‘stuff’ is just, by comparison, meaningless bells & whistles…” –Donald Trump, Twitter.com, December 31, […]

DEMS/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/WALL: “It’s incredible how Democrats can all use their ridiculous sound bite and say that a Wall doesn’t work. It does, and properly built, almost 100%! They say it’s old technology – but so is the wheel. They now say it is immoral- but it is far more immoral for people to be […]

BORDER/DEMS/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “I’m in the Oval Office. Democrats, come back from vacation now and give us the votes necessary for Border Security, including the Wall.

DEMS/MEDIA/RUSSIA INVESTIGATION/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “’Absolutely nothing’ (on Russian Collusion). Kimberley Strassel, The Wall Street Journal.

BORDER/CHILDREN/DEMS/IMMIGRATION/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “Any deaths of children or others at the Border are strictly the fault of the Democrats and their pathetic immigration policies that allow people to make the long trek thinking they can enter our country illegally.
