Sorry but this is typical RNC/WH spin. The things you listed are the very least we would have expected from someone like Jeb Bush. Let's not forget, there is no trade deal with China, no peace deal with North Korea, GM just shut its iconic Lordstown plant, throwing thousands of Americans out of work while they keep their Mexican plants humming, and most embarrassing for Trump, there is no wall and there isn't going to be a wall. He just signed a budget bill which expressly prohibits him from building one.
Of course he has had opposition. What did he expect? That his buddy Schumer would go along with him because he used to write big checks to him? Honestly, the intensity of the opposition and the lengths they have been willing to go to have surprised me. But everyone knew he would have to use every bit of leverage he had to get the wall. Instead, he fucked around for two years, filled his administration with people who opposed him and his policies and put his son in law in charge of seemingly everything.
Trump could have traded any number of things that both parties were desperate for, like the massive tax cut for billionaires, to get his wall. He could have used his inherent power as Commander in Chief to get the military to build it, or he could have diverted DHS funds to it. Instead, he talked crap.
Now, he has totally stabbed his base in the back and is out babbling every day about letting in more immigrants, because business wants them. Of course they do. Business likes to keep wages low. How is that helping actual Americans, you know, like the people in the Midwest who voted for him?
Illegal immigration is actually far worse than during Obama's regime. We have groups organizing massive caravans of illegals who are coached on what to say to claim asylum. Now reports are coming out that DHS is ordering its examiners to let in as many as possible, even though they know the asylum claims are bogus. Even worse, having a kid with you guarantees you get in, so we are encouraging child smuggling and the child sex slave trade. Great job, Mr. President.
ps. When they say they are "apprehending" large numbers of border jumpers, this is spin. Yes, they are then taken to a facility and let loose after a few weeks or less if they have a kid with them, with a court date. How many do you think show up? Zero.
