If
Democrats obstruct Donald Trump’s plans to build a border wall by
withholding the money needed to start the project, thereby
forcing a government
shut-down and blaming
Trump’s insistence on building the wall as
the reason for the
shut-down, the American people who
voted for Trump will
feel deserted and left
stranded by Washington
elitists,
and would turn on the Democrats in
a minute for this fool
move. I have no doubt that this threatened
government shut-down stunt
is a case of
the Democrats going to the well once too often, and they will be
hanging themselves politically
if they allow this to
happen and actually force
a shut-down.
Congress
has already approved the building of a wall along the border with
Mexico, and now all that’s needed to begin construction is a
relatively paltry billion
dollars, and the Democrats are threatening a
shut-down, based
on related budget
talks, unless
President Trump backs off and drops his insistence on building the
wall he promised during his campaign for president.
What
the Democrats are not taking into consideration, and I believe that
the Republicans have also not thought of this aspect of a possible
shut-down, is that President Trump is a master at sending Tweets
that are read by tens of thousands of people and usually picked up by
the leftist news agencies and published by them, both in print and on
their internet spots. These Trump Tweets have been very effective at
informing and persuading the American public about what Donald Trump
is doing and have
allowed
him to pummel his critics and place them on the defensive while
bypassing the lying press.
President
Trump does not rely on the fake,
phony press to get his
message out, he publishes his own thoughts directly to the American
public, and if the Democrats, in their
infinite arrogance, think that they can place Trump in a bad light
with a government shut-down, then
they are dumber than I thought they were.
