"SNIP....

“President Trump boasted of ‘large’ agricultural sales to Mexico as part of a deal reached Friday on border security and illegal immigration that averted the threat of U.S. tariffs, but the deal as released had none, and three Mexican officials say they’re not aware of any side accord,” Bloomberg reports.

“Trump told his 61 million Twitter followers in an all-caps message that Mexico had agreed to ‘immediately begin buying large quantities of agricultural product from our great patriot farmers.'”

4. Just in from Mexico........

"Hey Don, check's in the mail!"

5. When you have a 'president' who lies about everything, everyday, all the time...

[ooky]

6. He just can't control himself. Once his first lie was embraced by his imbecilic

followers he had to pepper it with another lie.

[gratuitous]

7. It's almost as if Trump ginned up a big controversy

Then declared victory and just walked away. In the middle of a national emergency, too!

8. He had to say something to get McConnell back in the jacuzzi.

GOP will forgive treason, if it’s their own, but they draw the red line at their wallet.
