Trump "The Wall Is Happening"
It appears that Congress has reached a bipartisan deal on a continuing resolution bill for the
budget that will keep the government funded until the end of the fiscal year in September.
And while conservatives aren't happy about some parts of it, to hear Democrats and the
liberal media talk about the budget bill, you'd think that the Dems got everything
they wanted and more and President Donald Trump didn't get anything — least of all
his stupid, ugly, expensive and unnecessary border wall, according to The Washington Times.
Chief among the the many leftist gloaters was Democratic National Committee Chairman
Tom Perez, who gleefully declared of the budget deal, "Not one red cent for Donald's border
wall."
Yet, while the Democrats and liberal media "spike the football," in the words of
budget director Mick Mulvaney, Trump himself seemed entirely unfazed.
In a recent interview with Fox News host Eric Bolling, Trump appeared thoroughly committed
to following through on his oft-repeated campaign promise of constructing a border wall.
"The wall is happening," Trump stated with a grin, before Bolling could even finish
asking his opening question.
"By the way, we got a billion and a half dollars for security in the budget, ya know,
we're keeping it going, fine," said Trump.
"The wall is happening, the wall is happening."
After being asked about funding for Planned Parenthood, which Trump stated would be defunded
at the "appropriate time," the president circled back to the border wall for a moment,
noting that even though there has not yet been any new construction on a wall, illegal
immigration at the border was already down by record amounts.
"We've been so successful that the Democrats are saying, 'you don't need a wall anymore,
because look at the good job Trump is doing,' and I understand what they are saying,"
remarked Trump.
"Except for one thing: to stop drugs, to stop human trafficking, which is the new,
big — ya know, people don't talk about that.
They just started because I'm saying, to talk about it — human trafficking is a tremendous
problem," he said.
"But to stop all of these things, including illegals from coming into the country, we
need the wall, but we need it for the drugs, we need it for the human trafficking."
Democrats may be cheering that they denied Trump any additional funding for a border
wall in the current budget — which, historically, Trump never should have had a hand in until
the next fiscal year anyway, if we still followed historical trends on budgeting.
But Trump sounds as though he has not been swayed from his commitment to securing the
border as best he can.
We shall see how the budget battle over funding for a border wall goes over the course of
the summer, but if we had to hazard a guess on it, we'd have to suggest that perhaps
Democrats are a bit premature in gloating that they've stopped Trump's border wall
plans.
At the very least, Dems have merely put it on hold for a few more months.
Please share this on Facebook and Twitter to let everyone know that Trump confidently
stated, "The wall is happening."
