What Trump said then:
Mexico will pay for the wall. I promise.
I am proud to shut down the government for border security.
I will be the one to shut it down.
What he says now:
Taxpayers must pay for the wall.
The Democrats own the shutdown.
Promise made. Promises broken.
Gotta love the audacity of corporate CEOs showering themselves in multimillion-dollar bonuses every year, no matter how badly the business is doing, while arguing that a living wage for workers is unrealistic.

Why can’t Democrats learn to do what Republicans do and just repeat 1 point that seals your case, as: “You said Mexico wld pay for the wall”...just say that 1 thing and nothing else till this mess is over! What else needs to be said?
Diverse staff isn’t simply a “nice-to-have” or a moral good, it also means better decisions bc you have empowered people with a wide range of perspectives to inform outcomes.
Thank you Dr. Blain for following this up w/ the immense talent there is to be found across the country.
In which a Republican literally tries to mansplaining *my own childhood* and life to me.
And in true mansplaining form, he’s doing it wrong with an great degree of confidence.
It begs the question: is the GOP really “sending us their best?” 🤔
Dear @GOPLeader McCarthy (R-CA): I will leave it up to you to tell California businesses that the leader of the Republican party--@realDonaldTrump--wants to shut down all trade along California's southern border.
My only passionate take on the 2020 Democratic primary is voters should support and vote for candidates they feel passionate about and represent their values, worldview and politics, rather than attempt to game out who's "electable." Literally nobody knows.
Dear @realDonaldTrump: Some facts.
-There is no big crisis at the border
-Violent crime dropped last year
-Property crime dropped last year
-Studies show immigrants, both documented and undocumented, commit less crimes than native born Americans
Time to stop the #TrumpShutdown
A new poll shows that 81% of Americans support the #GreenNewDeal, including 64% of Republicans.
Meanwhile, momentum for the select committee continues to build with 40 House Dems in support.
The wind is at our backs. Bold climate action is our future.
Thank you @ocasio2018.
My latest article: It's important to keep in mind the Big Story of the Russia scandal: @realdonaldtrump betrayed America. Please read *and* please share. https://t.co/E7EbFC7E7s
Senate Foreign Relations Cmte. Chairman Corker on Syria troop withdrawal:
"I’ve never seen a decision like this since I’ve been here in 12 years where nothing is communicated in advance, and all of a sudden this type of massive decision takes place." https://t.co/gllDmAZEeU
The whole vile lot of them has sold our country out. Everybody in service to this criminal and corrupt regime that has sundered America, betrayed our ideals, lied and stolen from the American people, undermined the rule of law and attacked our institutions has sold out America.
If the evidence bears this out as now seems likely, it will form part of an impeachable pattern of corrupt deception that helped a hostile foreign power catapult a compromised moron into the U.S. presidency. @RepAdamSchiff @RepJerryNadler@RepSwalwell@RepRaskin@SenatorDurbin
Had dinner a couple of weeks ago with Italians. Asked them what they thought of America. All smiles and casual compliments. I say, "Now tell me what you really think..."
"Barbaric, amoral, lets people die in the street, a health care system built by sociopaths..."
About right.
It's not complicated: It's the lying. It's the callous, arrogant, endless lying. Everyday. Every hour of every day.
It's all the lying that will ultimately take him down.
