1st duty? How bout paying my husband and not using 800, 000 employees and their families as a pawn to get what you want

I'm trying to stay informed, but I cant stand to hear him speak for more than five minutes.

In Australia, we take the refugees who come illegally by boat to Nauru and leave them there. It is called Operation Sovereign Borders and the federal government makes commercials tilted No Way You Not Make Australia Home. They will never step one foot on Australian soil and are banned for life. America should do the same.

EXCELLENT !!!! CONGRATS MR PRESIDENT TRUMP ! GO AHEAD ! in my country the president never care about our security and all gangs and all delinquents of all countries come here to hide because are protected here.

[TrishTruitt]

Dear Canada, We're so sorry. we feel the same way - plus embarrassed as all hell. Will you please share Justin with us?

In the first place border security professionals clearly stated that a wall wouldn't even be effective because people could just dig tunnels under the wall

[dianah]

He went heavy on the spray tan for sure.

TRUMP! one thing you are doing really great is weakening the US and make Russia great again.

[AlexanderGonzalez-hlkx]

I think the wall should be built on the original border, and give back the land that originally belongs to Mexico.
And I also think that the treaty to the native American should be fulfilled and as well as their land returned back to them

People complain about him but wont let him get things done...There is a problem and other countries should not be able to get here easily. Some of you people are the problem...

[testanddestroy]

Thid is yhe greatest country in the world he is trying to protect it and all the people who make it great. No matter color race religion. People have been brainwashed by the media. Open your eyes do your own research and think for yourself. He might not be the greatest person but he is a great businessman and president

Trumps speech was 12 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

[YogendraKalavalapalli]

He talks about both sides listening to each other. How many here believe he would?

[vickiem.]

I read last night that the border gate to Mexico was left open and people just walked through. How convenient! They don't call him Trump just because it's his family name.

[mammad]

Go home, illegal things are illegal, hence the term illegal, go home and come the right

[raceryod]

Can’t listen anymore
I’ll just listen to it later

[davidhinkley]

All of the drugs that are killing people come from his friends who own drug manufacturing companies. Period.

[rastapatchmail]

Open the government. It's that easy.
