Citation is the past 30 years of watching him do whatever the fuck he's been doing.
If you believe that trump has come up with any actual policy then I ask you to cite those. I'm talking actual, well written plans regardless of how flawed they may be when executed. I'm not talking about broad statements like make america great again or closing the borders to immigration, etc.
Trump is the kind of person that underlings have to make him think it's his idea or else it never happens.
Anyone who ever watched his reality show on creating a business from scratch should be able to tell you how smart trump isn't. I tried watching it once and gave up because it was all about the drama and even when it came time for the roundtable or whatever, trump never gave any real advice or help. Why? Because he doesn't actually know how to run a business or even start one from scratch.
I hate reality TV but if Mark Cuban did one and did right I'd watch it almost religiously.
border wall is not policy, its marketing and political posturing - something the orange asshole appears to be quite good at when directed towards his rubes.
Where did I say border was policy? I specifically said that it wasn't. I called that out intentionally because some people may think that it counts as policy when it doesn't. Over arching changes to border security and or immigration would count but something as stupid as build a wall and make Mexico pay for it isn't policy.
