    Yep. A wall is 'immoral' for a 'manufactured crisis'.

    Trump was right about people getting tired of winning. Must have been referring to the leftists.

    You seem like such a worrier. We can always pull out the 5% tariffs again.

    Actually they did. Read the article.
    Here. A snippet in case your out of reads with the NYT.

    In addition, the Migrant Protection Protocols already face legal challenges by immigrant rights groups who say they violate the migrants’ right to lawyers. A federal judge blocked the Trump administration from implementing the plan, but an appeals court later said it could move forward while the legal challenge proceeds.

    Ms. Sanchez also told Ms. Nielsen that the Mexican government’s new national guard, which had been created just a month earlier to combat drugs and crime, would be redirected to the border with Guatemala, the entry point for most of the Central American migrants.

    At the time, Ms. Nielsen and the other American negotiators referred to the Mexican promise as the “third border” plan because the Mexicans proposed creating a line of troops around the southern part of their country to keep migrants from moving north.

    Mexicans had begun to follow the plan, but not quickly enough for the Trump administration, which said that only about 1,000 Mexican national guard troops were in place by May.

    Yeah, It's probably trying to tell you something. :)

    But I'm curious. I wonder how they are counting those returned to Mexico awaiting their hearings. Any idea?

    Coolest May in the desert in decades.

    "Not quickly enough" is the takeaway line and the Trump response was the necessary stimulus.

    Remember when Trump got an offer for the budget, he said no, and then shut down the government for the longest period in US history, only to then reopen the government after he accepted a worse deal and then he lied about that worse deal?

    Mexico remembers. Did you?

    yes, would republicans let Trump hurt the American people with a 25% tax on all products from Mexico, I doubt it, Trump knew that too, that is why we got this weak save face deal

    Trump did not get what he wanted, that is a failure... Mexico did offer him a weak save face deal that wont change anything, you can call that a win if you want

    I call the real win is this stopped Trump from hurting Americans

    How good is that? He is smarter than the Dems thought.
    Mexico should have been stopping these people or at least questioning their eligibility for asylum all along. These supposed asylum seekers had to be costing the Mexico Government dearly while they move through their their Country to our border
    And, we have been informed by Border Control and Homeland Security about our cost per person crossing our border. Not to mention the diseases they are bringing in to our Country. Enough. Thank you Trump for taking action, regardless of the worthless Congress.

    He's far smarter. For he knows results trump rhetoric.

    He's here to deliver-and he's hoping you understand and you do.

    That’s because Obama created legislation with his big insurance donor pals.

    The left is blocking any border security legislation, so the president is forced to deal with Mexico on a different path
