I Hear That Trump Will Be Visiting The Border Wall In Alamo, Texas Later Today.....

to claim he kept his Wall promise.

I'm thinking that if this attempt fails him - that on Wednesday he'll be visiting 'Little Big Horn'.

Trump might find it prudent to cross over to inspect the wall from the other side, and keep on going.

Mexico would ever pay for a wall to keep Trump in the U.S. If he's going to there to showcase his "promised made, promised kept" record, it's going to be the shortest presidential visit in history.

visit at all, he will incite his base again before Jan 20th. If the media follows him as they always do, when he lies and does not say anything about Jan 6th, coverage of him speaking should be stopped.

A sort of "legacy tour" I've read.

That said - If he really wants to highlight his accomplishments -

He needs to visit the hospitals overrun with Covid patients, and funeral homes overrun with the dead from Covid, homeless encampments, food banks now feeding thousands daily with no end in sight, the families of the dead from Covid, families facing eviction - because his lack of response to Covid-19 and the Capitol insurrection is his true legacy.
