break and give him anything he wants just so hell stop being so cruel. Its his art of the deal tactic where he gets what he wants by destroying his enemies (us)
He wants that wall at any cost. Not because he thinks it will keep us safe. He wants it because it will keep his base happy. Dont get me wrong. He doesnt give a shit about them. He needs them in order to maintain power. Thryre the reason he has the Republicans so cowed and puckered up to kiss his ass.
