The Democrats are bluffing.  The last thing they want is to do is go on the record that they would rather shut down the government than pay for a border Wall.  The next to the last thing they want is to go on record with a vote against the wall.  They know that to do either of these things would bring them no votes just more people outraged over them continuing to choose illegal immigrants over citizens.

Have the fight.  Call the vote.  Don’t follow Ryan in funding Planned Parenthood while refusing to fund the wall.  Don’t throw us under the bus for political expediency.

Obamacare is still here.  China isn’t a currency manipulator.  NATO is all right.  Intervention in foreign wars and military confrontations seem to be the order of the day.  Hopefully we won’t be singing with the WHO, “The new boss is the same as the old boss.”

People voted for hope and change and got a totally transformed America.  We voted for America First.  What are we going to get?

I have supported Donald Trump from early on and I’m not giving up on him yet.  But come on backing down from a fight about the wall is enough to shake the faith of a Trumpist Monk.

The Republicans control both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue.  This is what they have been telling us for years that they needed to advance the America First Agenda.  However, the RINO contingent has reached across the aisles to block what should have been a cake walk back to reality.

Doesn’t the President know that caving on the wall will be a deal breaker?  Forget about expending treasure and blood to defend South Korea and spend some political capital to defend America.  BUILD THE WALL.  Let the Democrats go into the next elections trying to defend why they think it’s better to have open borders that bring in millions of people to compete with citizens for jobs.  BUILD THE WALL.  Let them defend why it isn’t important to stop the flow of Heroin and other drugs into our country.  BUILD THE WALL.

Mr. President you are the Commander-in-Chief.  Building the wall is a national security issue.  BUILD THE WALL.  Use some of the Defense budget to defend America.  BUILD THE WALL.  Use the money seized from drug dealers.   BUILD THE WALL.   Put a surcharge on international wire transfers and dedicate the money to building the wall.  BUILD THE WALL.  Impose an emergency 5% surcharge on all goods coming in from Mexico and use the money to build the wall.  BUILD THE WALL.  At least make some proposals for how to fund the wall. BUILD THE WALL.   Sponsor some laws that provide funding for the wall.  BUILD THE WALL.

Don’t cave.  BUILD THE WALL.  Stand strong and those who came up off the couch to vote will stay standing alongside you.  BUILD THE WALL.  If you cave on the wall the Republicans will lose control of the house in 2018 and your impeachment hearings will start in 2019. BUILD THE WALL.

Don’t throw away the miracle win to beat all miracle wins because the Democrats are threatening to shut down the government.  BUILD THE WALL.  Let the doors swing shut on the bloated bureaucratic regulation machine and see who blinks first.  BUILD THE WALL.

BUILD THE WALL.    BUILD THE WALL.    BUILD THE WALL.

BUILD THE WALL and protect America.  BUILD THE WALL and secure your legacy.  BUILD THE WALL and cement a coalition that will ensure you re-election in 2020.  BUILD THE WALL and make America Great Again.

BUILD THE WALL.    BUILD THE WALL.    BUILD THE WALL.
