I don't think he meant to limit immigration in any sense of the word.

Which is one of the main reasons that he hasn't done anything about a wall or immigration since he's been in office.

But this is what The people who voted for him wanted, and that's what they're getting. Bigger government, nothing done about immigration, more omnibus spending bills after "I'll never sign another one of those...".

I'm actually shocked he hasn't given Amnesty to DACA people. But I'm going to assume when they vote him in a second time, that'll be his signature defining cause for his last term.

I do not care about his wall. I care that he is lying.

So you don't really care about the problem, you're just anti Trump.? They all lie they're politicians. That's no excuse, however I'd be less concerned about his lying and more concerned about the actual problems. I'm hoping you we're equally concerned with the following doozies.

  • if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor : these were orchestrated attacks because of an anti Islam video : my FBI is highly ethical, they'd never abuse FISA
  • i had to suspend the free market to save the free market : Iraq has WMD
  • i didn't have sex with that woman, Monica Lewinsky
  • read my lips, no new taxes ...

I am glad we agree that President Trump said he wanted Mexico write a check to pay for the wall. This means we also agree he is lying when he claim he never said such a thing.

You seem a little obsessed with this and indignant. When he said they'd write a check for it, I took it more figuratively. I mean, Mexico doesn't pay for anything, so it never made any sense. I got pretty worked up,like you,when Obama first started lying....and after several months, no one cared or remembered. Like I posted, CNN even made excuses for it. I couldn't believe it. That's when I started to see politics more clearly..correctly and intelligently. I think you're a smart guy, if you just start reading between the lines more, everything will gradually start to make more sense.

Trump didn't just start lying. He lied on his tv show for years. He has lied to his wives, ex wives, and random women for years. He's been lying for a long time. This isn't new.. I'm not sure how the wall has you so worked up, or is this a TDS thing..

I mean, far worse than the wall is Paula White is trump's "spiritual advisor", a known Christian heretic and someone who actually takes advantage of desperate people by telling them God will taste care of them if they donate too her.

That says far more about Trump than his lying about immigration policies.

I don’t care what he does. I just want the wall.

Well, that would sort of mean you do care what he does. You probably meant to say you do not care what he says.

You probably meant to bite bite your dick but hey semantics.
