America is watching Trump have a real time meltdown as the President sounded unstable while demanding that Congress fund his collapsing Mexico wall plan.
Trump tweeted: (see below)**
The unstable president is having a breakdown in 140 characters or less because Congress is refusing to fund his wall.
Contrary to what Trump tweeted, Republicans and Democrats oppose building his wall. The Wall Street Journal reported, Most lawmakers representing the regionboth Democrats and Republicanssaid they are opposed and many said they have unanswered questions. A few were noncommittal, but not a single member of the House or Senate representing the region expressed support for the funding request. That includes nine members of the House and eight senators across four states: Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California.......................

Our ruling
Trump tweeted, "The weak illegal immigration policies of the Obama Admin. allowed bad MS 13 gangs to form in cities across U.S. We are removing them fast!"
MS-13 gangs in the United States were established decades before Obama took office and had been spreading across the U.S. long before his tenure. Experts told us there is no evidence Obama policies spurred their growth. Finally, Obama prioritized the deportation of criminal immigrants.
Immigration officials told us data on how many MS-13 gang members have been arrested and removed under Trumps administration is not available.
We rate Trumps claim False.
