"Sign legislation"?

What does that even mean, other than when THE PRESIDENT signs legislation into law after it has been passed by a majority of both houses of Congress which is CURRENTLY HELD BY REPUBLICANS in both?

I'm gonna put all the fragments of my skull on bungees with superglue, so that when it explodes it's easier to reassemble...

wearily,

Disgraceful, blatant lies. But he has two very powerful tools/echo chambers: Twitter and Faux news.

not to mention the humanitarian atrocities they are committing.
If this finishes off the rightwing it'll be for the good of everyone.

Or they just weren't listening at all.
There's no explanation or excuse for hurting children.

Unless he got his wall funding. Mexico was supposed to pay for it. Not the American taxpayer. I’d rather have roads repaired and the electrical grid strengthened and cyber security.

It's a political disaster.

And more importantly a devastating policy that is damaging children.
