wall, because they don t think it s a good idea, and he said mexico was going to pay for it. so, it s just it s more of this crazy-making that somehow it s the democrats fault that he doesn t have funding for the wall that he said he was going to get the funding from mexico for. michael, what about that? well, i think kirsten is right in a lot of ways. but at the same time, you know, today, the democrats laid out their plan for border security. and in that plan, they froze the number of border patrol officers. if they re going to go ahead and beef up security at the ports of entry, they re going to need a lot more border patrol officers. and the idea that the vast majority of border patrol officers support a wall, i think that s driving what the president wants to do. but also, by the way, the majority of border patrol officers support increasing the number of border patrol officers. democrats really got to get a handle on what border security really means to them. michael c
this when the vice president and the republican leaders came out, and they said, the democrats won t negotiate. they won t negotiate. they won t start. there were negotiations that went on before the government shutdown. both sides gave, right? i ll give you a little on this. i ll give you a little on that. they came to an agreement. they were going to sign it. and then the president and the president had agreed to it. then all of a sudden he realized that president what s her name? ann coulter. president coulter and president limbaugh says, oh, no, no, no. then he reneged on the deal. so this isn t a both sides. the president is the one who is not negotiating here. right. i mean it s not even today the description of the meeting, it was kind of crazy-making. you know, saying basically his idea of negotiating is give me what i want and, you know, everything will be fine kwoi.

thought maybe that initial debut on hannity and then the fox and friends sort of second round, i thought maybe that was a strategy, but i think we re seeing more and more he s just freelancing. what do you think, walter? is this a strategy or just it s crazy making. what s really baffling as the representative for the president he s contradicting himself in his various statements. it s even hard to figure out what he s saying or what he thinks he s saying. jack, i know you don t think it s strategy, so i ll have another question for you. come on. you can do it quick because i want to get to the other question. comey firing he really stepped in it when he said comey was fired because he wouldn t acknowledge that the president was not a subject of the investigation. that was unhelpful. there you go. the post is saying the white house is really worried about donald trump, jr. and jared
you know, listening to that, you wonder if john barron and john miller were separated at birth, because they sure do sound like the same guy. and he ll present this people will present him with the audio recordings. and he will deny that it s him. even after he admitted it s him. it s really impossible to follow and kind of crazy making. it s interesting, though, because a lot of the lies he told in the past and even nowadays, they require you to be an idiot. they re sort of based on the idea that the person listening is just dumb and doesn t put the pieces together. i mean, they are so sort of obvious at times that, you know saying he wasn t making fun of a disabled person when he was you could see with your own eyes what he was doing. um-hum. well, and he was determined to convince james comey that he wasn t making fun of the reporter.
