The gop leadership was more opposed to the wall than the dems and kept sabotaging any push for it

It’s more about the priorities of the GOP Congress. Trump tried to push for the border wall in exchange for immigration reform, then DACA. And the GOP wouldn’t push for it.
-
There was a deal in the Senate $25B for the wall and DACA and Trump told them to reject it unless they added ending chain migration (legal immigration for family members).

Rhinos and Dinos both profit from war and immigration, but you knew that.

I believe he tried to get a deal just after he got in; DACA in trade for the wall. Too many repubs said no to the DACA reforms and too many Dems said no to the wall.

He couldn't get 50 votes in the Senate because of the likes of McCain and Flake

I think Cocaine Mitch strung him along a bit, telling him they’d get it for him “next time.” Then “next time,” until here we are.

Same reason the Democrats did nothing when they had a filibuster proof majority. Corporate money from both sides likes labor surplus, and banks would love to get high risk mortgages flowing again if only they could get lots of new families to believe they can afford loans.

Trump won’t reestablish the community reinvestment act, the bill that Clinton and bush pushed that crushed the housing market. Remember when home ownership was a right in this country.

Not needed. His supporters know. Its to get more funds in our pockets, grow the economy to be more sound to stand up to the trade deals and tarrifs needed to get Mexico to work with us on making permanent solutions to the migration issue. It all ties together

It is simple: tax bill only needed a simple majority unlike other items that need 60 senate votes. Once Dems backed away from deal to fund wall for DACA legalization. Only choice.

No Trump threatened to veto that one AFTER he himself negotiated with Schumer. President Deals strikes again.

This was the plan all along Michael, build a small portion of the wall beforehand, and build the rest as a re-election issue.

Between the phones duo, McCain & Ryan, the promises/lies corrupted Trump’s plans, as well as the hopes of his voters. One can’t do everything simultaneously and expect great results.
