Trump is trying to keep half of a promise he made during his campaign: to build a wall. The other half of the promise was that Mexico would pay for it. Trump is delusional and incompetent. I am reminded of a quote from a former President: “We must not promise what we ought not, lest we be called on to perform what we cannot.” -Abraham Lincoln So he declares an emergency where there is none. And he tries to steal funds from the defense department for a promise he can’t keep. And Republicans who say nothing are complicit.
