Trump's Solved the Border Crisis: Time to Pour Up A Cold One

Wow, you seem a little bitter, also.

IT Was All BS, They Reached A Deal Back In March...

Big deal, it isn't unusual for countries to negotiate in advance. Politics. You are worked up over small stuff.
Trump hate is eating you up!

Who got conned? Libs that are desperate to denigrate Trump! Absolutely nothing you got excited about in this latest "issue" matters.  Looks like Trump got some results. Good.

Nieto says Mexico doesn't believe in walls. Dems don't either. If you are hanging your hat on no wall and Mexico won't pay for it, that is the Dem position now. More people might admit we need a wall when Trump is out of the picture. Dems haven't been able to think clearly since Trump beat them.

Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer explains to ya all the title of my thread and the point of my post:
"This is an historic night! @realDonaldTrump has announced that he has cut a deal to 'greatly reduce, or eliminate, Illegal Immigration coming from Mexico and into the United States.' Now that that problem is solved, I'm sure we won't be hearing any more about it in the future."
"Schumer explains to ya..."
Schumer is also one of the most slimy characters in DC! If he is explaining things to you, you have a big problem.

Trump reacts by Tweeting that any news story that does not wholly reflect the false narrative that he desires is fake news."
I'd add what I've been reading here and that is anything anyone says that counters the Trump narrative is because everybody else is still upset that Trump won and Hillary lost an election that she shouldn't have. 
Did they come up with that on their own or did they read it in a Trump tweet?...
You sound like a kid stamping his feet. Trump didn't do it, his administration did it?
And few people think Trump "...is the greatest deal-maker ever..."
It won't take long to see if Trump got any results.

Trump is weird. So are other leading politicians. Often there's not much to choose from.

He is desperate to save this farce and fiasco. How long before he tries returning to his "very profitable" tariffs?
I read his tweets. I'd say that was a desperate description of anything he tweeted. You guys have lost it.

Except that Mexico did not slow it down for Obama. We will see if Trump did any better.

And you know that the people least concerned that Trump is in office just want Hillary and whatever legislation she would have accomplished far away from D.C.
Any guesses which Dem will run? I think a woman is more likely than Biden or Bernie. 

Edit: Looked around some and most known political observers are saying I'm exactly wrong. They predict Biden and Bernie as winners.
