If he gets it done, he gets credit for it. Just like BHO gets credit for taking out OBL, even though he did it reluctantly. That's the only way we can judge presidents, by what they do in office. Now if Trump builds his wall and it ends up like the Florida International foot bridge, Trump gets the blame for that too.Kath wrote:That would mean he's proactive. From all views I can see, he's far more reactive. He may well use the Omnibus bill to fund his wall, but that was in no way his intention. I have very little doubt he truly believed he could make Mexico pay for the wall. Since he realized it wasn't going to happen, he's been looking for something to use.

The Wall is a policy position for Trump has been from the start, being adaptive to the battlefield be it tactical, strategic or political shows good leadership. No plan survives first contact with the enemy, same here, Deep State was always going to do everything they could to stop Trump from building a wall. If he manages to do it with the Omnibus Spending Bill, all his supporters that trashed him for signing it will be stronger supporters, it would be a political coup.
