The ONLY Democratic response to Trump's demand for $25 billion to build his ludicrous wall

should be: "Talk to Mexico." We should rub his nose in this nonsensical promise every chance we get.

Simplistic? Absolutely, but doesn't that describe his base?

Trump makes ludicrous and ridiculous statements nearly every day. Democrats should point them out and ask how that's going to work.

Trump wants a wall and he got his crowds to shout that Mexico would pay for it. Why should the American taxpayer suddenly be on the hook for all of that money?

Explain yourself, Trump.

Every time it is brought up, ask him why Mexico isn't paying for it like he promised.
Tell him they'd be glad to go along with it if Mexico paid for it.
