Those Snow Mexicans are in trouble because they don't have a Trump nor a Washington.

They can pretty much kiss all the rights they have away.

I went to the health club for my daily workout today and chatted with the receptionist who'd just spent a month based in Guadalajara with family and friends.

She's not a Mexican, she's a gringo.

Told me to avoid Mexico City, saying they really hate Americans there now.

Said there's a lot of hatred and resentment now due to the Trumpish turn of events.

Hello consequences.

The oaf's action have caused a surge of nationalistic pride in our neighbors to the north and south; too bad pride is lacking in the USA today.

His goal is clear.

Cut taxes for the rich, screw the rest of the country.

MAGA...Make Americans Grovel Again.

"Brilliant lawyers?"

Uh...not really.

What we're seeing with the entire Trump situation (not just his lawyers) is the ascent of the back benchers, those never good enough to make it to the top on their own: now they pledge fealty to the oaf and in exchange get to ride his coat tails to a land they'd never have gotten to otherwise.

Really??? Selective editing, why didn't you quote more of the actual interview???

Quote:
KRISTEN WELKER:

But even given those numbers that you’re talking about, don’t you need to uphold the Constitution of the United States as president?

PRES. DONALD TRUMP:

I don’t know. I have to respond by saying, again, I have brilliant lawyers that work for me, and they are going to obviously follow what the Supreme Court said. What you said is not what I heard the Supreme Court said. They have a different interpretation.
