CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 20, 2018
IT APPEARS PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS CAVED ON THE BORDER WALL FOR NOW. LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE A CONTINUING RESOLUTION TO KEEP SPENDING GOING AND AVOID A SHUTDOWN OVER THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS.
IN WASHINGTON, EVEN NATIONAL SECURITY IS NOW POLITICAL. DEMOCRATS, INCLUDING CHUCK SCHUMER, WHO ONCE SUPPORTED SPENDING MORE MONEY TO STRENGTHEN THE SOUTHERN BORDER, NOW HAVE COME UP WITH A PALTRY AMOUNT OF MONEY TO BUILD FENCES AND OTHER THINGS THAT WON’T SECURE THE BORDER.
AFTER THE HOLIDAYS THE PRESIDENT SHOULD RETURN TO THIS ISSUE AND CAMPAIGN AGAIN FOR THE WALL TO BE FINISHED, AS HE DID WHEN RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT. HE SHOULD REMIND THE PUBLIC THAT TERRORISTS ARE SLIPPING INTO THE COUNTRY, ALONG WITH DRUGS AND PUT THE LEFT ON DEFENSE. THIS IS A WINNING ISSUE FOR HIM, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY IT IS A WINNING ISSUE FOR THE COUNTRY.
DEMOCRATS HAVE LONG WANTED MORE IMMIGRANTS BECAUSE THEY SEE FUTURE VOTERS FOR THEIR CANDIDATES. REPUBLICANS HAVE WANTED CHEAP LABOR FOR THEIR DONORS. IT’S TIME TO END THIS NONSENSE AND PUT AMERICA FIRST. I’M CAL THOMAS.
