Back when Trump began to run for president his advisers wanted him to
make immigration part of his platform.They had a couple of problems with this though and the primary aspect of
this was that Trump is a vile nitwit. You see, they did not much care
that Trump was a vile nitwit because all the people working for the Trump
campaign did not expect, nor want, him to be elected. The idea was Trump would just make a lot of noise, stir up the loons, and
then go off to sign a new deal to get back on television...he wanted to
create the Trump network. In all honesty, this likely would have been a
combination of a home shopping network and Alex Jones InfoWars. Lunacy at
an epic level with breaks to sell you Trump related trinkets. They did want him to make immigration one of the poles of his platform
though. Problem was when the vile nitwit spoke about it, all he could
think to do was call people rapists, criminals, and drug dealers. Later
he would add diseased and human traffickers to his list...and then
finally create a massive lie about terrorists pouring across our Southern
border...the truth is there has never been a single person caught
crossing our Southern border that was found to be a terrorist...NOT ONE.So, the question for his advisers was how do you get Trump to speak about
immigration when he has no understanding of immigration issues and just
wants to call people vile names which only paints Trump as some sort of
twisted racist?Well, they came up with a solution and the most important part of the
solution was it could not be longer than a single sentence because if you
go beyond that Trump starts to no longer be able to recall it or stay on
message. More than a sentence long and Trump would start to freelance. So, they told him to say he was going to "Build a wall." on the Southern
border. When Trump tried this out in front of the people that go to his rallies
they loved it. They cheered, which Trump loved. Problem solved. Trump would say he would "build a wall" and the loons
would cheer...then they would start to chant.They had done it! Trump still had ZERO understanding of immigration
issues but they gave him a slogan that he could deliver that made it
sound like he wanted to be tough on immigration and it was something
other than calling people of color rapists, drug dealers, animals,
diseased, and murderers. It did not matter that there would never be a wall because there was not
supposed to be a President Trump. It was a slogan. It was hype. It was Trump's favorite thing...A LIE! And a good one because it made people cheer and chant. Now there is a President Trump but the "wall" is still a lie. A little
bit of hype invented by political consultants to work people up but now
Trump is stuck with that lie.That lie defines Trump and the issue is, how do you make something that
was just a lie, just a little bit of campaign smoke, go away?It was never something that would or even could happen. It was just a
lie, just a little fun to make people cheer and chant.
