Aside from simply caving and wanting more illegal immigration, I can't really comprehend Trump's goals here. He could have declared national emergency, he could have been more conciliatory on reducing legal immigration to get the $25 billion.
Whatever happened to the "tax remittances" plan to pay for the wall?
Theoretically you could also use tariffs from Mexico to pay for this.
Sometimes I think it all has to do with re-election. If the wall isn't yet built, then "build the wall" or "finish the wall" can still be a campaign slogan, and as 2016 showed us, this is a winning position. No one who wanted a wall then doesn't want one now. There's no one who would vote for anti-wall candidate (Democrat) instead of a maybe-wall candidate (Trump).
The not knowing is upsetting here. The media still has so much control of the narrative, and I fear that they may have serious influence within the white house. Where is Stephen Miller? I want to hear what he has to say about all of this. Almost surprised he hasn't resigned over this

Where has Trump said that Dems get to control how the $23 billion is spent? Reports are interpreting this as potential wall money…
Dems might be able to decide on terms for what (if anything) they give him, but it sounds like Trump is talking about ways of bypassing them to get money, which they couldn't dictate terms for.

Perhaps MAGA and the Wall were really about the friends we met on the way? Trust the Plan. ((( Q )))
Owen Price
What plan is that?
Josiah Murphy
The plan where you just sit back and get comfy because Daddy is taking care of everything for you.

Yes!!!!

this is rapidly becoming more and more embarassing

He'd make a much better puppet if he had supporters. Jews could easily give him a few "wins" here and there just to keep the gullible goyim happy, and yet they don't. I really wonder why.
