The wall is being built, although the MSM tries to blanket the details, we must not lose sight of that. Another 6 mi stretch is beginning in February, contract already awarded. The President is fighting for the funding for the next rollouts, not for whether there will be a wall.

I agree this is a no-brainer & Congress is kissing up to their corporate masters(donors), playing political games instead of doping their jobs. My point is that POTUS is still moving the ball down the field, whatever is written in the MSM & whatever the doomsayers preach.

It’s 3 million now and the GoFund Me says in the unlikely event this money cannot be used to build the wall it will be returned.

Don’t sign it, shut down government. This is the Red line and a defining moment in Trump’s Presidency.

Media: Trump might cave! Trump might cave!
Poster: Oh, no! Trump might cave! I don’t like Trump anymore! Orange man bad!
Media: Trump still might cave! Trump still might cave!
Trump: I will not sign anything unless I get perfect border security.
Poster: Oh, yeah? I don’t believe him! Trump still might cave! Trump still might cave!

See what the media did, there?

It’s not obvious what legislation he’s exactly talking about.

“I will not sign any of their legislation, including infrastructure,...”

ANY

INCLUDING INFRASTRUCTURE

Obvious enough?

Right along with his declaration that the 8 year assault on the 2nd amendment is over.

That was my initial take, meaning new bills in the coming year.

You know, I was just thinking the same thing.
Trump might be 100% successful in getting the wall built - and we might never know it because the media won’t report it.
It’s like all those statistics about the reduction of illegal aliens be pulled out during the oval office “debate” with Schmucky and the Botox Babe - they just dismissed it, said “we have our own facts” and moved on.

Our President has far exceeded any reasonable expectation we could have. His family is threatened, his wealth and his freedom. He stands pretty much alone against the greatest enemy this nation has ever faced and you sit on your butt complaining about his heroic efforts not being good enough.

You’re even too lame to know my original post was referring to the “show me state” motto.

You are part of the sickness this nation is dying from. You’re talking policy matters hiding your head in the sand to the fact that our American government is about destroyed. The President is the last bridge to defend...there is nothing else left at thin point upon which to make a stand. So, you sit.

If Trump loses re-election.. it will be because he didn’t shut it down over the wall.

The question to be answered is what unfunded agencies will be closed?

I somehow thought the affected agencies were associated with the Department of Home Security. That includes ICE and the border Patrol. If the government is shut down, that would seemingly include the very people charged with protecting the borders

Does not compute

I may be wrong, but I think he is referring to not signing any “Democrat legislation” submitted after the dems take the House in January.

In other words, he will sign the CR, but any dem submitted controlled spending bills not containing funds for the wall will be vetoed.

“How can you have a shut down when 75% of the government is funded.”

I keep hearing this. What is the 25% that is not funded?

Essential workers like border patrol continue to work and always get paid.

It means they get their budget, but noting after.

This is the first time I have the regret to say I don’t believe Trump’s commitment.

You described the media hateful cheering squad to a T.

President Trump, BUILD THE WALL!

Tell your rotten opposition Republican and Democrats that we the people and the border patrol want that wall.

We have your back, Sir. BUILD THE WALL!

Your post is tripe.

Our President has far exceeded any reasonable expectation we could have.

This does not relieve him of fulfilling his campaign promise to build a wall in this term.

His family is threatened, his wealth and his freedom. He stands pretty much alone against the greatest enemy this nation has ever faced and you sit on your butt complaining about his heroic efforts not being good enough.

I have fought in war as an officer of Marines. He is not alone in any of his duties and his family has NOTHING to do with his promise to the American people to secure out border.

You’re even too lame to know my original post was referring to the “show me state” motto.

Not even.

You are part of the sickness this nation is dying from.

You are absolutely clueless.
