Have you accounted for any benefit from illegal immigration?

I heart this x5.

The simplest being we pay lower prices for commodities due to illegal immigration. Sure, we could probably agree it isn’t in our country’s interest to do that but eagle was making a calculation and one must include all factors, not just cherry-picked ones.

How about if we factor in the welfare payments we’d save if we didn’t pay able bodied Americans to not work? IOW, make Americans do the jobs that are “saving” us money… It’s a win-win scenario.

I wasn’t trying to say my addition made the analysis complete. I used it as an example for why eagle’s analysis was incomplete, which you further demonstrate.

Why take into account every single factor when his basic point was correct? Ultimately, illegal immigration costs Americans more than we gain.

Does it?

Yup, and more than just money.

That is Mexico paying for it? The contortions you guys go through are legendary.

I’m sorry that you do not understand the full gamut of what an expense is.

I understand what YOU are saying but it isn’t what Trump has said. I’m glad you were able to Trumpsplain to yourself.

Actually, I believe he did explain it that way a time or two… In any event, his supporters certainly understand it that way. How do you think that the United States could compel Mexico to cut us a 25 billion dollar check? The US is the only country that gives pallets full of cash to countries so they can directly use it against us.

Trump: “It’s an easy decision for Mexico: make a one-time payment of $5-10 billion”

You think that was a choice or an ultimatum?

It sounded like a toothless ultimatum which is par for the course for our President.

So how do you think Trump was going to get Mexico to literally give us billions in cash? Or is it just possible Trump was implying Mexico was going to pay in other ways?

The Lib thinking process is just amazing, bass-ackwards, but amazing. You falsely impeach Trump over an ultimatum he didn’t make, and are oblivious to the ultimatum he actually has carried out…

You seem to be avoiding trump’s quote…

Trump: “It’s an easy decision for Mexico: make a one-time payment of $5-10 billion”

And yet they DIDN’T make that payment did they? Wonder if they regret it?

to divert defense spending to other defense spending. not to any “emergency”.

They will be able to do anything they want, after they pack the SCOTUS with rabid partisans.

Don’t even have to pack the SCOTUS… this is under the current court.

No, this is you imagining how the court would rule.

Consistently?

Psst, the SCOTUS hasn’t even ruled on it yet so…

Supreme Court to take up Trump border wall spending, asylum enforcement

As of right now, the courts have ruled he can’t do it.

So the President should stop work on the wall because he reallocated funds in an unconstitutional manner.

Agreed?

Nope. Tell them to pound sand. Let’s see SCOTUS enforce a ruling.

Hilarious

Glad you think so. What do you think SCOTUS could do?

The last time a President said that about a SCOTUS ruling it worked out super well for the soul of the nation.

That is why it is hilarious.

In a deeply sad way.

The soul of the nation is a religious concept. I find it ironic that a Lib would invoke such a concept.

Don’t be ugly.

You are correct. My apologies to Jezzcoe.
I do find it curious though…

Well, Trump made a threat that if Mexico wanted to keep receiving money payments from Mexicans in the US then they should make that one time payment for the wall. How’d that work out for Trump?

Not so well apparently.

@Borgia_dude

You’re probably still waiting patiently for Trump to release his taxes like he promised

No, I’m not. WHy did you make that up? What’s with all you libs, posting so much fabrication on the board?

Nothing new from you.

[Samm]

@Jezcoe

Mexico isn’t paying for it.

Who cares? Other than libs who hate the wall because Trump wants it and wouldn’t vote for Trump under any circumstances, that is. You guys need a new tune.

[Guvnah]

@Samm

Who cares?

Libs care.

I certainly don’t. I just want the wall.

[Samm]

But it is fun to watch libs here pretend like such things matter as to how they vote.

[PurpnGold]

Not to me. I don’t want the wall.

It’s just hilarious watching Trump supporters justify a Trump lie.

[PurpnGold]

@Guvnah

Libs care.

I certainly don’t. I just want the wall.

Nope wrong. You made that up.

I don’t want the wall.

[westaussie]

I wonder whether Robert Frost would be a fan of “the wall”.

[Guvnah]

@PurpnGold

I don’t want the wall.

Nobody said you want the wall.

Please try to pay attention.

Libs care about what Samm replied to. Not what you’re pretending he replied to.

Saying ** I ** made something up is pure PnG disingenuousness. Typical, of course. That’s how you roll.

Cool.

I do not care about who is paying for the wall. I do not want the wall.

I do find it interesting when cons twist themselves into a pretzel to justify the lie they ate up from Trump.

Who cares if he lied about Mexico, the wall is the only part that matters.
