That does not mean make the same mistake again, but to be brave enough to take some chances.

Apparently Trump was brave enough and took some chances and did what you refer to as nearly impossible by signing a prison reform bill just recently. |

That didn't get a lot of press either, but that was a bipartisan bill. |

Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner (another really bad evil person) was largely instrumental in getting the bill going and twisting congressional arms to get it done. |

If the Republican arms weren't twisted, it wouldn't have passed. Republicans controlled all three branches of government. |

Maybe Trump should have had his son in law do the wall negotiation.
As I understand it Kushner not only got both houses behind criminal justice reform, but also his father in law. |

For Gods sake, can you EVER just admit that someone else is right?
The federal government, controlled by the GOP, passed prison reform. is that true, or is that false? |

The only thing. Incredible. Without him, it doesn't pass. He is 1/3 of the equation, and without his influence and negotiating for it, the House and Senate would not have approved it. |
