So now when Trump mentions his wall we can laugh at him

not to mention cuts to Medicare, Medicaid or repeal of the ACA.

I feel like a lot of the pressure is off worrying about the next crazy thing he will do. I just hope we don't waste the time we have with our new power. He wants infrastructure? Well, give it to him, provided, of course, that he agrees to make real improvements and restore the damage he's done to the ACA, etc. He says he invented the art of the deal, so let's put him to the test.

But if we held them off on stuff like the wall for 2 years I am hoping we can continue to hold them off for another month or two.
