He wants his memorial wall.

His tweet

With so much talk about the Wall, people are losing sight of the great job being done on our Southern Border by Border Patrol, ICE and our great Military. Remember the Caravans? Well, they didn’t get through and none are forming or on their way. Border is tight. Fake News silent!

seems to indicate the wall isn't needed. Don't give people a reason to doubt the judgement.

The wall has a few psychological factors.

1) To place emphasis on securing the border (tougher stance) than actually building a wall.

2) The wild stereotypes of Latino's to shame them to join the military.

Further Increases Likely
Besides the rapid increase in the U.S. Hispanic population, Latinos are likely to increase in the military because of several recent trends and activities. The Army has launched a vast recruiting campaign targeting Latino youth, placing ads in Spanish-language media, including magazines, radio, and television. The number of Hispanic Army enlistments rose 26 percent between 2001 and 2005.

The various recruitment efforts do have critics, both within and outside the Hispanic community, particularly during this time of war and a growing number of reported Hispanic casualties.6 Nevertheless, research shows that there is widespread support for military service within the Hispanic community. The propensity to serve in the military (generally measured by the desires of young people to consider the military as one of their first choices of activities—especially in the Marine Corps—is high among Latinos. Hispanics are more likely to complete boot camp, finish their military service, and to reenlist than any other group of Marines.

This Dude Really Served Clemson Boxed-Up Fast Food On A Bunch Of Fancy Trays

Earlier today, President Donald Trump boasted about getting a bunch of fast food for the college football national champions, who were visiting the White House tonight, and he really did it! Take a gander at those carefully arranged sauce packets in a dish on top of a tray, for no reason.


The Clemson Tigers, 15-0 and national champions, will make the traditional national championship…

There’s nothing wrong with eating fast food. But if I were on the Clemson Tigers, a 15-0 team that destroyed a college football dynasty in the national title game, and I came to the White House and was met with this assortment of sandwiches and wraps that definitely sat through at least three different security checkpoints, I’d feel a little sold out.


Clemson didn’t just eat droopy salads and burgers because Trump likes them. A White House flack claimed that because of all the furloughed residence staff due to the government shutdown, as well as the snow closures in D.C., the President went and bought a ton of fast food so the football players wouldn’t go hungry. So, yeah, Trump’s trying to weaponize Big Macs against the Democrats because no one has given him his border wall money yet.

Rep Pelosi tells Trump he cannot give the State of the Union address at the Capitol.

Trump strikes back at Pelosi
The president is so far staying uncharacteristically silent after Pelosi's State of the Union power play.

By ANDREW RESTUCCIA 01/17/2019 12:09 PM EST Updated 01/17/2019 02:20 PM EST

Updated, 2:20 p.m.: President Donald Trump hit back at Speaker Nancy Pelosi a day after she asked to reschedule his State of the Union address, saying a trip she planned to make to Brussels, Egypt and Afghanistan has been postponed.

"We will reschedule this seven-day excursion when the Shutdown is over," he said in a letter to Pelosi.

And you thought high school was over.
