Shockingly, our country has made it a whole 500 days with reality star, Donald Trump in office. On his 500th day, the president used his favorite platform, Twitter, to remind us of all the things he has done for our country.
It looks like the timing couldn’t be more perfect since the construction of his wall has begun in San Diego. According to local news, Fox 8, construction started on Friday. The new wall will be about 14 miles long, standing between 18-30 feet tall, with anti-climbing plates, costing around $147 million.
Two other border projects are in progress. A 2-mile wall in California, and a 20-mile border in New Mexico.
This is my 500th. Day in Office and we have accomplished a lot – many believe more than any President in his first 500 days. Massive Tax & Regulation Cuts, Military & Vets, Lower Crime & Illegal Immigration, Stronger Borders, Judgeships, Best Economy & Jobs EVER, and much more…

….We had Repeal & Replace done (and the saving to our country of one trillion dollars) except for one person, but it is getting done anyway. Individual Mandate is gone and great, less expensive plans will be announced this month. Drug prices coming down & Right to Try!

As has been stated by numerous legal scholars, I have the absolute right to PARDON myself, but why would I do that when I have done nothing wrong? In the meantime, the never ending Witch Hunt, led by 13 very Angry and Conflicted Democrats (& others) continues into the mid-terms!

China already charges a tax of 16% on soybeans. Canada has all sorts of trade barriers on our Agricultural products. Not acceptable!

The U.S. has made such bad trade deals over so many years that we can only WIN!

Farmers have not been doing well for 15 years. Mexico, Canada, China and others have treated them unfairly. By the time I finish trade talks, that will change. Big trade barriers against U.S. farmers, and other businesses, will finally be broken. Massive trade deficits no longer!

The appointment of the Special Counsel is totally UNCONSTITUTIONAL! Despite that, we play the game because I, unlike the Democrats, have done nothing wrong!
