Some general responses to some of the stuff.

Is Trump a thin-skinned troll?

He is a bit thin-skinned, but he is not a troll. Trolls do what they do because they take pleasure in making people angry. Trump has never thrown the first punch. Even the leftist media has correctly characterized him as a "counter-puncher." Trump never draws first blood. He simply responds. And considering how hard and how often the media comes at him, and considering their level of dishonesty in crafting false narratives, Trump has been forced to take on the role he has. Destroying the media narrative is a full-time job, and one that Trump excels at.


Trump is using taxpayer's money to pay for the wall.

No, he isn't. Trump never said Mexico was going to write a check to America. He said they would pay for it through tariffs and through new trade deals (both of which have already happened.) Mexico couldn't even write a check if they wanted to. American law states that any money gifted to the United States must be apportioned and distributed by Congress. The person donating doesn't get to attach strings (and rightly so).

So even if the money was gifted to America by Mexico, Trump would still need Congress to allot that money for the wall, which leads to...


Is Trump's emergency declaration government overreach?

No, because we are in a state of emergency. This is not an abuse of power by Trump. He has done everything he can to negotiate with Congress, but you have a party who is so desperate for power that they want to sacrifice half the country (the right) and replace them with voters who will reliably vote Democrat (dirt poor illegals who get amnestied and then live off the government teat).
