The minute you see them as more like one party than two it all starts to make sense. Their motives ( 95% of the votes cast without really being held to any standard, even to occasionally balance a budget) becomes clear. I have always said that nothing gets done about illegal immigration because it serves both so called "major parties". Trump brought a wild card into the game so now they are gaming us but any solution they arrive at will be little better than a bandaid . A small example being the very idea that we need a wall AND more beds at the same time.
I know it goes against every fiber of your being but try to look at them as one and it starts to fall into line. Another example ? Despite the polar differences in talk Bush and Obama both presided over war, corporate welfare , state's rights intrusions and set spending and debt records while berating the the "other's guys budget".

Unless he does something he can legally do without Congress, he has violated the biggest promise he made. and all the talk he has done, including last night.
If he think his core voters will accept less than what he said without a fight on his part, he is going home early. He can lose the fight as long as he fights the fight. So far, he hasn't.
Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation
Pick your enemies carefully.
The only thing Trump's gonna build is a bigger case for getting himself out of office. There's going to be no wall, Mexico is laughing their asses off at us, Russia is laughing their asses off at us, China is laughing their asses off at us, so is north Korea; why? because we have a flaming moron in office who lies through his teeth for fun and profit.
