A desperate and unhinged Donald Trump took to his favorite platform this morning — Twitter — to make outlandish statements, defend himself, and promise that he would still build a border wall with Mexico.
The president has come under withering attack from his right-wing base of conservative voters and media personalities since yesterday. One such person, Ann Coulter, who speaks for many other anti-immigrant Trump supporters, demanded that Trump “break ground” and build his wall.
So this morning Trump, clearly energized by fear that the Roger Stone arrest means his presidency may soon be over, posted the following tweets:
“I like the fact that the President is making the case (Border Security & Crime) to the American people. Now we know where Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer & the Democrats stand, which is no Border Security. Will be big 2020 issue.” Matt Schlapp, Chair, ACU. Bigger than anyone knows!
21 days goes very quickly. Negotiations with Democrats will start immediately. Will not be easy to make a deal, both parties very dug in. The case for National Security has been greatly enhanced by what has been happening at the Border & through dialogue. We will build the Wall!
We have turned away, at great expense, two major Caravans, but a big one has now formed and is coming. At least 8000 people! If we had a powerful Wall, they wouldn’t even try to make the long and dangerous journey. Build the Wall and Crime will Fall!
Thank you to the Republican National Committee, (the RNC), who voted UNANIMOUSLY yesterday to support me in the upcoming 2020 Election. Considering that we have done more than any Administration in the first two years, this should be easy. More great things now in the works!
“We absolutely need a physical barrier or Wall, whatever you want to call it. The President yesterday laid all that out. We need to do it all, including the Wall. I provided the same information to the previous administration, & it was ignored.” Mark Morgan, Border Chief for “O”!

Earlier Trump had blasted the indictment and arrest of Roger Stone, and in typical Trump fashion tried to point the blame elsewhere.
If Roger Stone was indicted for lying to Congress, what about the lying done by Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Lisa Page & lover, Baker and soooo many others? What about Hillary to FBI and her 33,000 deleted Emails? What about Lisa & Peter’s deleted texts & Wiener’s laptop? Much more!

Once again, everything Donald Trump writes or says makes it seem like his desperation is increasing. He really has no clue what to do other than spew forth his unhinged words on Twitter. He is being attacked by the right wingers, but Democrats in Congress will never give him what he wants, so he is really powerless.
On top of these problems, Trump has also completely lost the support of the American public. They know he caused the costly government shutdown which hurt millions of people but served no purpose. They also know — and increasingly have proof — that he and his campaign illegally conspired with Russia to fraudulently win the presidency.
The Trump presidency will soon be over, and he hasn’t figured that out yet. He is clueless enough to not see what is obvious to everyone else, and he probably won’t see it until he is led out of the White House in handcuffs.
