THE PRESIDENT: Happy Easter.
Q: Happy Easter, Mr. President.
THE PRESIDENT: Happy Easter. Enjoy it.
Q Mr. President, what did you mean by no DACA deal?
THE PRESIDENT: Mexico has got to help us at the border. If they’re not going to help us at the border, it’s a very sad thing between our two countries.
Mexico has got to help us at the border. And a lot of people are coming in because they want to take advantage of DACA, and we’re going to have to really see.
They had a great chance. The Democrats blew it. They had a great, great chance but we’ll have to take a look, because Mexico has got to help us at the border. They flow right through Mexico. They send them into the United States. It can’t happen that way anymore. Thank you.
Donald Trump tried to hijack Easter to rant about why no one will give him money for a border wall that he promised Mexico would pay for. Trump could care less about Easter. Who does the White House think that they are fooling? Let Trump go golfing on Easter Sunday morning like he really wants to be doing?
Trump couldn’t even hold it together to go to church on Easter Sunday
It is not difficult for a president to do Easter Sunday right. All you have to do is put on a nice suit, go to church with your family, worship during an important Christian holiday, maybe say a few words about the holiday if asked, and go home.
This should be a slam dunk for any president, but for Trump is a combination of perpetually angry and self-pitying, he can’t put anyone first, not even Jesus Christ on Easter comes before Trump’s delusional rants about border walls.
Trump made Easter all about him and showed the country what an unhinged disaster he really is.
