Only thing Trump's wall protects is his ego

As The Wall dominated the weeks news, a pitiful juxtaposition of two realities one the hard truth, the other a lie emerged to clarify the destructiveness of the American presidents toxic narcissism.
Federal workers facing their first payday without a check were selling their possessions on social media so they could pay their bills. Donald Trump told NBC News correspondent Kelly ODonnell that he can relate to the unpaid workers.
The president added: And Im sure that the people that are on the receiving end will make adjustments. They always do. And theyll make adjustments. People understand exactly whats going on. Many of those people that wont be receiving a paycheck, many of those people agree 100 percent with what Im doing.
No, no, no and no.
That is, no, billionaires cant relate to people dependent on their next paycheck, unless perhaps they became billionaires after first serving time in the middle class. Obviously, this isnt Trumps resume. Though he says he made a fortune, it surely helped to begin with a multimillion-dollar starter loan from dear ol dad.
And, no, people wont make adjustments when they cant. For the 4 out of 5 American workers who live paycheck to paycheck, there arent many ways to adjust.
