I thought they both said "we" and "our".

Did we not listen to the same speeches?

Well here's the real difference and it's hilarious.

So now Trump for legalizing millions of illegals? Amazing how this works, if a Democrat would have said that Reich winger would be shitting bricks right now--LOL

Trump's entire campaign was based on removing every illegal in this country, which is what attracted you and 99% of his supporters to him. His WALL isn't going to get built, congress will not appropriate money for a USELESS 1000 mile wall, that would have a 1000 holes and tunnels underneath it has soon as it's built. The other problem with the WALL is Indian Reservation land and private property rights.

As I repeatedly told everyone throughout the primary. He was for a pathway to citizenship 3-1/2 years ago and blasted Mitt Romney for losing, citing the Republican party was too mean spirited toward illegals as the cause. You ignored that, as you have everything else about Trump.

Not that I am against Immigration reform, but I am wondering how this is sitting with his base. This is the biggest campaign lie I have ever witnessed in my old age. That was his entire platform. Continually campaigning on kicking all illegals out of this country (while his supporters where cheering him on.) And his very first address to the nation he set his supporters butt's on fire--

Now let's get into GOVERNMENT SPENDING: Did we forget about the 20 trillion deficit already? His proposal is to add 10% more in military spending, while cutting foreign aid to pay for it. He's is running head strong into Mitch McConnell and several other Republicans on this who strongly disagree with this plan. I doubt that's going to get through congress.

TAX CUTS: How do you cut taxes, increase spending and bring down the deficit--Anyone care to answer that?

OBAMACARE: They're not going to repeal and replace it. It's clear they don't even have a plan. The law has to be written & approved by both houses and then delivered to insurers by June 21st (this year) so they can write their policies for next year. Nothing is going to get done. Especially with Republicans getting at good look at their constituents in these town halls that have been kicking their ass's lately.
Republican town halls are getting very, very nasty

PLANNED PARENTHOOD: Wasn't there a campaign promise to cut funding to Planned Parenthood?--LOL Well after millions of women showed up for the Woman's march the day after the inauguration I guess that changed a few of their minds--LOL

Who knows? Maybe Trump will get that other Obamacare type program passed that he proposed? Child care subsidies. With Democrats taking over both houses in 2018 he may have a real opportunity to get that done.

The difference: Trump tried to flower up fascist rhetoric, while Obama promised (and delivered) that the GOP created recession would be resolved.

Trump is flip flopping worse than Mitt Romney.

The difference is that Trump waited until AFTER the election to flip flop.

Whereas Romney flip flopped before the primaries were over.

Plus Trump has always been pro-gun and never signed any anti assault carbine state legislation.

And while Trump pays less taxes (none) than Mitt (14% on $20 billion income) Trump was smart enough not to release his tax returns -- a disclosure started by Nixon to attempt to prove he (Nixon) was NOT a crook.

Anything Trump flip flops on is good news for America

Trump has 4 yeas to accomplish something.

The GOP in the Senate and House only have 2.

Advantage Trump.

If Schumer and Pelosi take over Congress in 2018 then I am sure they can agree with Trump on ACA reform.

Hopefully by 2018 Kennedy and Thomas will have retired, and Ginsberg will have died, so Trump can replace them on the SCOTUS with ratification from the GOP Senate.

Then life will be good again in 2019.

The only hope this country has right now is that the GOP decides that the country and constitution are more important than the 2018 and 2020 elections. But sadly, it's been decades since the GOP put country over party.

You all missed the point which fortunately for us "deplorables" we strongly appreciate, i.e. Trump considers us more then himself.
Again personal pronoun "I" Trump 38 times ... Obama more then double at 73 times... sad most of you similar pompous self-centered still don't comprehend why
