We have to amend the message on the shutdown

We are keeping Trump's promise to make Mexico pay for the wall. Put him on the defensive. You guaranteed Mexico would pay for the wall Mr. Trump. "Guarantee, Promise , Count on it folks". Mexico will pay for the wall. Remember Benghazi,Benghazi Benghazi. Horrible, but it worked. This is honest. Mexico Mexico Mexico.

and am so glad she said it. It would in fact be a giant, 2000-mile-long spite fence and monument not just to Trump but to the trumpsters' white nationalist xenophobia and hate. So glad we've taken that off the table.
