  1. He spoke today (1:00 mark of below video). Not spotted in anywhere in the video was his backbone.
  2. 4) They are gullible sheep who would believe that gay zombies are invading the country to help Hillary run her pedo sex ring in a DC pizza parlor if Trump tweeted it.
  3. Ahh. Gotcha. Was thinking along the lines are largest foreign holders.
  4. Are China and Japan not the largest holder (by far) of our debt? What am I missing here? http://ticdata.treasury.gov/Publish/mfh.txt
  5. Your sure that illegal walked across the border? 99% chance he flew or drove in and overstayed his visa. Things a wall would not address. I don't even know how to respond to the low skilled workers comment. Let's just say Americans do not want to work in fields, frame a house, lay a roof or mend a fence. As the economy keeps expanding, we need unskilled workers willing to do the dirty work for cheap. It allows us Americans to lead our blissfully ignorant lives with callus-free hands.
  6. We are spending record amounts down there, so there is plenty of security. It's never going to be 100%. Can you give me an example of how lack of border security effects your day to day life?
  7. Tell that to Trump and his base.
  8. Almost a third, 91 of the 300, imminent domain suits brought by the government against private land owners are still pending...........from 2006. But Trump is good at winning court battles though.
  9. More likely a mile or two. Check out our current fence. Presumably it went through the same federal agencies, army core of engineers, etc. when they built these sections, so expect something similar if we build additional miles of the wall. Find me a portion of the wall that is within 10' of the river. Private land owners boundary is the river BTW, while your doing your research. http://apps.revealnews.org/border-wall/
  10. From that article: "Overall, 41 people on the Terrorist Screening Database were encountered at the southern border from Oct. 1, 2017, to March 31, 2018, but 35 of them were U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents. Six were classified as non-U.S. persons. On the northern border, CBP stopped 91 people listed in the database, including 41 who were not American citizens or residents." More than double potential "terrorists" were stopped crossing via Canada. If this is really about national security then it looks like Trump is trying to build a wall on the wrong border.
  11. Can you imagine them wanting to cut off their livestock and wildlife from their primary source of water (rio grande) or can you imagine them wanting to give up large swaths of their land that would fall on the opposite side of the wall? Have you ever been to the border? Ever met a rancher who owns land on the border?
  12. A couple of options here. One, you could spend 30 seconds and sign up for twitter and follow one person, @realdonaldtrump. Or two, you could watch Fox News, MSNBC, CNN, OAN who spend about half of their day covering what @realdonaldtrump tweets. Or I could just tell you what he will tweet to save you the trouble (Actual tweets have misspellings, grammatical errors and randomly capitalized words),: Mueller is on a witch hunt. Democrats want open borders/Build the wall Stock Market doing great (on the days it is up) America is respected around the world again Make America Great Again Mitt Romney, General Mattis, William McCraven, McMaster are ignorant no-good liberals Tariffs work and are doing great for the economy!!!!!!
  13. Universal income, banning fossil fuels by 2035, nationalizing health care, 70% marginal tax rate, shutting down ICE, canceling student debt, etc. I'm slightly left of center, but AOC is so far left of me I can't see her. I respect her. I like her. I just wouldn't bet any money on her getting anything done.
  14. I do. AOC is the Freedom Caucus of the left. I agree with a lot of her ideals, but most of what she is going to do (I'm guessing) will be so far out of the main stream that it will go nowhere. Just bluster and stunts. Gets media coverage and lots of likes on twitter, red meat for the base. But hard way to get bills passed.
  15. 99.99% chance that the border security convo is going to get sidetracked into Hilary's emails with that group of all-stars.
  16. One side is trying to scare you that brown people are coming to kill you and take your jobs. The other is trying to scare people that if Republicans repeal ACA and you have cancer that you and your family will be bankrupted and you might die without proper care. One of those statements has some merit the other is being scare of getting struck by lightning.
  17. ISIS forced their hand when they took over Mosul after the US withdrawal. The caliphate got into Kurdistan and was gaining territory quickly so peshmerga did what they do and fought. Some time after they started we realized that they were our best bet for defeating ISIS and we teamed up with them giving them money, arms and training. When Trump or Obama say "we defeated ISIS" they are full of shit. The Kurds defeated ISIS. Sure there were others that helped, but the Kurds did the heavy lifting especially in Mosul and Raqqa.
  18. So is this an act of non aggression? Or an act of aggression towards China, you seem to be on both sides of the fence.
  19. I guess my pesky intellect is making it tough for me to put it together.
  20. So, pull out 2,000 troops from Syria to......checks notes....go to war with China. You might be on to something there man. Are you Q?
  21. Agree to disagree. And yes, let's get back to America's hindenburg moment.
  22. ?????? In her own words: She writes that she regrets her affair with Mr. Clinton, but says the popular view that the president pressured her into it is wrong. “Sure, my boss took advantage of me,” she writes, “but I will always remain firm on this point: it was a consensual relationship. Any ‘abuse’ came in the aftermath, when I was made a scapegoat in order to protect his powerful position.” https://www.nytimes.com/2014/05/07/us/politics/monica-lewinsky-breaks-silence-about-affair-with-bill-clinton.html
  23. He got his feeling hurt by everybody laughing at his mop. Glad to see that the creepy fuck was embarrassed.
  24. NRA already got that treasonous fuck.
  25. Total fucking disaster, total phycho. Now that Kelly has checked out, expect to see much more of him.
