Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) is a gentleman. He's polite, engaging and truly a nice guy, which is why I can't understand his continuing attacks on President Trump. Quite honestly, it's baffling to me. They started before the 2016 election and have continued until as recently as yesterday, writing in a Washington Post op-ed that "the president has not risen to the mantle of the office."

National Review posted an excellent piece from Ben Shapiro explaining why Mitt Romney's attack on President Trump is all wrong.

In the piece, Shapiro also lists some of the President's bold, conservative accomplishments -- certainly more and better than Mitt ever would have managed:

"...the seating of two Supreme Court justices and another 83 Article III judges; a massive tax cut; a systematic dismantlement of regulations, including the repeal of the individual mandate under Obamacare and the destruction of the Obama administration’s absurd Title IX standards; the formation of an anti-Iranian alliance among Israel, Jordan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia; the movement of the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem; the rebuilding of the American military; criminal-justice reform (a policy libertarians certainly favor); and a booming economy (thus far). Trump has governed far more conservatively than expected."

Sure sounds like an invasion. Washington Times:

A “violent mob” of illegal immigrants tried to ring in the new year by rushing the border in California, and Border Patrol agents fired tear gas at them to repel the incursion, Homeland Security officials said Tuesday.

About 150 people were involved in the attempt to climb over and burrow under a section of border fence in San Diego on New Year’s Eve night. After they were blocked, one group grew more combative, firing rocks over the border to try to hit agents.

The headline from The Associated Press today was loud and clear:

White House closer to partial shutdown with wall demand

The left-leaning news organization then went on to paint a bleak picture for President Trump's efforts to fund and build a wall along America's southern border. According to AP:

Pushing the government to the brink of a partial shutdown, the White House is insisting that Congress provide $5 billion to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border despite lawmaker resistance from both parties. Without a resolution, parts of the federal government will shut down at midnight Friday.

But the President isn't backing down. This morning, he tweeted: "Anytime you hear a Democrat saying that you can have good Border Security without a Wall, write them off as just another politician following the party line. Time for us to save billions of dollars a year and have, at the same time, far greater safety and control!"

President Trump did what many of us have been begging for a leader to do -- to be courageous enough to throw down the gauntlet on border security. Watch the President say, "I will shut it down" when challenged by Schumer:

When I first saw the Donald Trump Talking Pen, my immediate response was... I'd love for our team members to pull this out of their stockings on Christmas morning! While everyone else is opening presents, you could be cycling through this classic quote, directly from our Commander-in-Chief:

"I will be the greatest President that God ever created."

Or this...

"I will build a great, great wall on our southern border. And I will have Mexico pay for that wall."

You'll be laughing and any liberals in the room won't be sure what to do! The pen features eight great quotes from the President, and it really is the perfect stocking stuffer for every Trump supporter. So I asked my staff to secure some of these pens for our team members.

But here's the problem...
