    Yea... this is smart... cutting things that, you know, actually protect us to fund Trump's boondoggle wall...

    To fund border wall, Trump administration weighs cuts to Coast Guard, airport security

    Trump's folly, that's one way he can create jobs in America. It's be all too funny if they do build that wall and the company who wins the contract offshores the labor to coolies from asia &/or mexico to save money.

    Agent Orange lacks the cajones.

    another one of his promise has been that
    on day one of his presidency, he will direct the Treasury Secretary to formally label China as a currency manipulator;
    he did not do so.

    not only that, but on day 83, he actually declared that China is not a currency manipulator

    Because China is not a currency manipulator, at least not as much as USA. It is proven again.

    Also when Trump does not do what he has promised, the country actually moves to the correct direction.

    let's see

    • re-asserting the one-china policy,
    • emphasizing that NATO is not obsolete
    • giving kudos to Fed Chair Janet Yellen
    • confiding that it is not as easy as he had thought (healthcare, the workings of the Fed, the mess in NK / Syria)

    can't say that i disagree!

    Rhetoric seems to be having an effect.


    He is making good on some of his promises.

    Trump insists on a wall , but he is going to get an extension of the beautiful iron fence that already exists.

    Senator Harris takes a solid stand against the Trump wall... it is a huge waste of money with very little benefit. Better ways to keep the country safe.
