Did they vote specifically for a border wall no matter what the cost, or did they vote for reducing the flow of illegal immigrants? I do remember having conversations with Republicans who said that the wall need not be physical. That was then. Now it's a wall, and only a wall, and not even an entire wall, but only 200 miles worth and no other enforcement or preventive measures matter. E-verify is shutdown! |
Why didn't he deliver on his promise in the two years when his party controlled both houses? |
Maybe he's going to declare his national emergency. |
It was based on a talking point to rile up his audience. It wasn't based on any real facts. Want to have a policy argument, advocate for more equipment to check cars at border crossings since that's where the majority of drugs come from, cars and trucks. More Americans are struggling with health insurance. Where is his much better plan for americans? |
Doubt it, completely unconstitutional |
You don't even have to have children to recognize a tantrum when you see one. |
There really isn't a fight. Trump has over a billion unspent on this from last year. He has to make a case why he needs more when he barely spent what he asked for before. This is all crap theater on the part of Trump and McConnell. |
Lies, lies, and more lies. His signature campaign promise was that MEXICO was going to build and pay for the wall. |
The cave is coming.
“During a private meeting with aides at Camp David on Sunday, Trump said he wanted them to come up with a resolution to the shutdown fight that would reopen the government—without him appearing to have capitulated to Democrats.” https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-to-visit-southern-border-on-thursday-white-house-says-11546881676?redirect=amp#click=https://t.co/o7xZJBLzUR |
PP is either blind or a survivor of abusive relationships. |
I’m so sick of this stupid retort. The President has extracted billions in concessions from Mexico, including through a renegotiated NAFTA. So Mexico is paying, in a sense. What no one here HAS answered is why Dems care more about illegal immigrants than federal workers. What is your response to that? |
His campaign promise was that Mexico was going to pay for the wall. No one except you, and Trump actually thinks a wall is needed. |
All he needs to do is declare the border safe. His followers believe all his lies. Total sheep. |
You really think those farmers who lost all their business to China and Brazil are going to support him? Okay let me LOL while ![]() |
Let me guess, you also thought he would lose in 2016. Am I right? |
