Shut it down (9-20-2018)

dantes · 2018-09-21T11:57:47.153Z

The idea that a border wall is necessary to enforce immigration laws makes as much sense as saying your local sheriff needs a tank.

Besides, Dems even tried to make a deal and offered to fund a border wall through bipartisan compromise. Trump turned them down. If all he wanted was a wall and “enforcing the laws” this would have been over long ago.

But it’s not about enforcing the laws, is it. It’s about restructuring immigration to keep the people from, what was it, ■■■■ holes, from getting in.

We will see if enough people are stupid enough to buy the Trump administration’s rhetoric on this.

…and doing the same thing over and over but now expecting different results is the definition of what again?

Voting Republican.

BORDER WALL NEARLY COLLAPSES DURING TESTING, 13 PROTOTYPES ‘BREACHED’ ALONG MEXICAN BORDER

This is a little awkward…

Trump is anything but doing the same thing over and over again. That’s another reason…I’m luvin it.

dantes · 2018-09-21T12:34:01.537Z

Yeah. So different.

Tax cut.
Deregulate.
Blow up deficit.

Republican administrations. Rinse and repeat.

The difference isn’t what he’s done. The difference is how he’s made you feel. That’s what you get for electing a reality TV star.

Ya mean that burning sensation on top of your head?

dantes · 2018-09-21T12:49:59.695Z

Nah. That warm fuzzy feeling you got believing this time it’s different.

And maybe the over exuberant nationalism.

Hey, if you think voting for a Republican Congress is going to magically change something, after having a Republican Congress for two years without anything being done on immigration, be my guest. You should be used to waiting by now.

Normally your comprehension is better than what you’re currently displaying. I want the establishment gone.

dantes · 2018-09-21T12:54:45.866Z

You’ll just replace it with a new establishment.

New boss same as the old boss. The only difference is that you’ll feel you’ve done something different. Results are the same.

So who is on the ballot in your district in November, and who are you voting for?

The house today passed a spending bill to keep the government open until December 7th. This bill passed both the Senate and the House with veto proof majorities. I wonder if Trump will risk getting his veto overridden?

Donald Trump doesn’t have the balls to veto a bill.

Chances of a veto. slim and none and slim walked out the door.

Trump does not have the stomach for this fight.

Trump is playing eleventh dimensiony chess - draining the swamp by plugging the drain.

Well it’s veto proof in the senate. We’ll have to see how it comes out in the House.

Bi-partisan support.

But my wall!

toreyj01 · 2018-09-27T12:17:39.666Z

I personally think Mexico SHOULD pay for the wall. They pay 20 billion or so and get sole access to the Rio Grande, a major waterway. Plus they can now charge all the Texans using that water for their farms. It would pay for itself in a year, and then its all profit. Plus, due to the intricacies of not being able to put in right ON the border they would get a good chunk of Texas as well.

Well worth it!
