RE:”But if he wants to win the support of folks who hate him at the expense of folks who don’t, that’s his decision to make.”

Will he get their support?

And the funny part is that if what I hear is accurate, Crazy Glenn doesn’t even like Lyin’ Ted any more because Lyin’ Ted sold Crazy Glenn’s mailing list without permission.

It seems you are the one who is uninformed.

Jeb? Rubio? Doing better? Seriously?

Oh, you’re probably talking about Lyin’ Ted.

Yes, the guy who crumbled on amnesty before the campaign even started. He’d be doing MUCH better.

Idiot.

Oh the purist among us./s How they howl if they
don’t get 100% in 100 days. Shame on us, if the
Washington Post can write their form of reporting
on Obama’s left over budget - and lead some R’s get
riled up. Hold on to your hats, for Trump’s first
budget which comes in September.

Trump should update and re-title his book.

Call it: “The Art Of Capitulation”.

So, you like to silence people, just like the Progressives! The “deal” sucks, and everyone here knows it. there is NO EXCUSE for Pres. Trump to sign it, in light of his promises.

Blaming Trump for violence? What are you talking about? I never did such a thing, nor would I.

That would be a reason for a second and THIRD term, actually! Let’s see what happens.

It isn’t that they don’t have a backbone, it is that they all work for someone else.

-- One of the parts I do not like about the budget according to Rush is that he cannot use any money from the budget for the wall. --

Be careful who you believe, and question why you believe them.

If the issue relating to the wall is that important to you, study up on what the proposed legislation says, how it differs from past law on the subject, and so on.

The proposed law includes over 300 million dollars for border fence repair, and directs the Secretary to submit a report on the subject of physical border security going forward.

When the BLM types shut down Trump from going to Chicago, I think it was Chicago, Cruz got up right away on TV and blamed Trump for the violence.

You never did. Sorry I wasn’t clear enough.

I’ll repeat this:

Meanwhile, Trump’s actual proposed first budget, which will be for fiscal 2018, calls specifically for $2.6 billion for a “physical wall”. I’ll wait and panic when Trump surrenders on his own actual proposal.

See Page 23:

I actually agree with you here. Cruz jumped the gun in a bitter race. No excuses.

That’s not enough?

Wow, still a brainwashed Cruzlim. Gonna start claiming that he’s the religion of peace now?

Bud, you are roiled in hate. I know that Cruz made a POLITICAL mistake there, but he has been solid on the issue of illegal aliens longer than any other prominent politician.

Uh huh.

There was a report recently that Cruz opposed a wall in Texas.

It had exactly as much cred as this one you’re hysterical over.

But you believe one and not the other. Confirmation bias.
