My wife and I were finalizing our 30th Anniversary trip which was supposed to happen in May. We’ve been married 33 years but that’s another story.
So we were going to do a two week coach tour of Ireland, then go visit our daughter in German. We were literally in the process of making a pre-payment for the coach tour when our request was denied as companies started backing down at the beginning.
Good side: We hadn’t shelled out money for airlines, tours, hotels, etc. yet so we dodged that bullet of a headache.
Bad side: We missed OUR BLOODY TRIP!!!
Maybe next year, as 2020 has sucked.

Can you imagine, this one man, even facing all of the forces working against him since he was elected, has still replaced over 200 miles of an old wall that was being breached, with his new wall that is effectively stopping illegal immigration, which is the lowest in years. Now combine that with his policy of remaining in Mexico until their asylum seeking court date and it’s been reduced by over 80%. Then Trump has increased the number of judges from 289 in 2016 to the present number of 466 to deal with this at a much faster rate.That is incredible. Wouldn’t you agree?
It’s very Trumpmessiah that he alone has been capable of so much. What a blessing he has been on our collective souls. Can you imagine it? 5 whole miles. Astonishing! How can any man that comes after him ever hope to live up to the expectations now that they are so high and unattainable for mere mortals? All hail the Trumpmessiah!
Yeah…since both parties stuck to the agreement with Americans, when they went along with legalizing 12 million illegals in exchange for stopping illegal immigration in 1986…Trump’s lone efforts were a waste of time. Oh…wait…I forgot about TDS.
You realize there are posters here that were not even born when this happened, right? Going back this well is nonsensical. Bush built new wall. Obama built new wall. Trump? 5 miles. Woo Hoo!! Best negotiator ever!
If America has become “disease infested” there’s no chance the hundreds of thousands of people who sneak into the country each year might be carrying the ■■■■ with them is there?
Captured illegals quarantined on examination turn up with Chagas, TB, polio, AIDS, dysentery, Dengue Leprosy and a whole laundry list of other diseases and infections because of conditions related to no health screening or medical care.
How lucky are we to be able to take care of them as they infect other Americans?
Not quite how “hail” really goes here in America. Just in case you are not clear:
Here are the opening lyrics for Hail to the Chief, which is the personal anthem of the POTUS:
Hail to the Chief we have chosen for the nation,
Hail to the Chief! We salute him, one and all.
Hail to the Chief, as we pledge cooperation
In proud fulfillment of a great, noble call.
Yours is the aim to make this grand country grander,
This you will do, that’s our strong, firm belief.
Hail to the one we selected as commander,
Hail to the President! Hail to the Chief!
Has nothing to do with fear. Sick people illegally entering the country undetected and integrating into the general population is a public health issue.
And when Obama got caught in a lie declaring the wall was “basically complete.”
Here is an excerpt on them plus Trump from an article written by Michael Knowles in Sep 2019 for the Daily Wire:
Between 1990, when President George H.W. Bush first constructed a 14-mile wall along the San Diego-Tijuana border, and 2011, when President Barack Obama falsely declared the wall “basically complete,” the United States constructed 649 miles of border fencing, much of which failed to meet the demands of the Secure Fence Act of 2006. If President Trump succeeds at building the 244 miles of new fencing, he can claim a 38% expansion of all the border wall ever constructed under four previous presidents over nearly three decades.
That projection does not take into account additional funding for 86 miles of new primary wall, 24 miles of new levee wall, and 131 miles of Pentagon-funded wall that the White House had already secured before the Supreme Court’s decision in July. If all that fencing is built, President Trump will be able to boast of an additional 241 miles of wall, bringing the total to 1,134 miles, covering 58% of the southern border.
During the 2016 presidential campaign, then-candidate Trump promised to build “a big, beautiful wall” and to make Mexico pay for it. He has thus far argued that the renegotiation of trade deals with Mexico fulfills the latter promise. But even the slipperiest political rhetoric cannot suffice to create the illusion of a border wall where none exists. Over the past month, against all odds and expectations, President Trump has at last shown progress on fulfilling that central campaign promise. Most impressive of all, his critics continue to underestimate his political skill.
