Teflon Don Trump has complete flipped on funding.
How can his faithful, failing acolytes be sure he won't flip on other things, like the border wall?
Oh, wait...
Trump burst onto the presidential scene with a promise to build a wall and reverse the damaging effects of illegal immigration.
For conservatives, Trump’s talk concerning immigration was refreshing. Suddenly, the billionaire candidate was leading the race.
In recent weeks, however, Trump appears to have hedged on his once-firm stance. There's a recording held by the New York Times where Trump reportedly offered a much-softer stance on immigration in order to attempt to solicit the newspaper’s endorsement. The meeting was off-the-record, so the media outlet has refused to release the recording unless Trump communicates that he wants it released.
Trump was asked about his comments on the recording and the candidate explained that his view on immigration is “flexible.”
For those who have been burned by politicians, “flexible” feels like a euphemism for “willing to flip.”
Trump explained we would only need about a thousand miles or so because of already-existing “natural barriers.”
These “natural barriers,” however, entail everything from roaring rivers to tiny streams that can hardly serve as a deterrent to immigration.
Shortly after Trump’s comments, Brandon Darby of Breitbart began noting that the “natural barriers” about which Trump spoke are hardly formidable obstacles.
