How Does It Feel To Be Conned - BIGLY?
To thunderous applause, the conman-in-chief first told his deplorables he would build a wall and Mexico would pay for it. Mexico, of course, declined the honor. So, like any con-man, Trump changed his tune.
It became Congress would fund it and Mexico would RE-IMBURSE the US for the wall. Hmmmm. How?
Trump would add 20% to Mexican goods coming into the country. Umm, the added 20% would be paid by the American consumer. Uh, oh. Back to the drawing board.
The current con (a good con-man never gives up) is that Congress will fund it BY CUTTING BACK ON EXISTING PROGRAMS. Of course, he hasn't bothered to list those programs. That would be politically dangerous.
So, in the end, his "plan" is for the US to pay for it.
Even the most die-hard Republicans are staring to wonder about this fraud in the White House.
