Democrats will keep a quarter of the federal government shuttered, if that will stop Trump from fulfilling his biggest campaign pledge.
‘The Democrats don’t want to let us have strong borders — only for one reason. You know why? Because I want it,” said President Donald J. Trump Wednesday, to the laughter of U.S. troops at Iraq’s Al Asad Air Base. “But you gave me an idea, just looking at this warrior group. I think I’ll say, ‘I don’t want the wall.’ And then they’re going to give it to me.”
President Trump is on to something. Democrats seem determined to stop his plans for a southern-border wall as revenge for beating Hillary Clinton. They hate Trump’s guts more than they love America. In Fiscal Year 2018 alone, federal officers apprehended 396,579 illegal aliens on the southwest border. The Left loves the fact that those who were caught and released, and others who break into America undetected, likely will become Democrats. So, from their perspective, why give President Trump this win?
