Donald Trump continues to be extremely insecure and overly sensitive to the fact that he practically conceded to Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi by agreeing to reopen the government without securing any funding for his border wall.
The president has clearly been glued to the television, fully absorbing all the negative news coverage, because Trump is more obsessed and unhinged about his racist solution to illegal immigration than ever. Just today, the president worked himself into such a temper tantrum that he actually attacked all Americans who oppose his border wall, calling his constituents “fools.” So much for his campaign promise to be the president for everybody!
Earlier today, Trump tweeted:
Only fools, or people with a political agenda, don’t want a Wall or Steel Barrier to protect our Country from Crime, Drugs and Human Trafficking. It will happen – it always does!”

Most Americans do NOT want this wall, so attacking the majority really isn’t a good idea if the president wants to run in 2020. Trump’s “always does” statement is particularly hilarious, considering that nothing Trump has said he was going to do has actually succeeded, and he has no real plans or strategy for how this wall is going to be funded or built. Instead, he lives in his own little bubble of entitlement and privilege, completely disengaged from reality.
Trump has tried to insist that his reopening of the government without any wall funding is not a “concession,” even though it clearly is a surrender to the Democrats. Now, he’s threatening to call a national emergency if he can’t get funding for the wall in three weeks. While Americans may have temporary relief as the government opens, something tells me that Trump is about to ramp up the crazy.
