I would like to see Trump pick Paul for 2020.

He is much closer aligned with Trump than Pence is.

Getting the money is NOT the issue..We just gave what, 10 billion to Honduras and Guatemala..we could have used that money for the wall..its not the money that is the issue, its that the commie left wants open borders, if the borders are closed they lose everything they need those borders wide open

Let’s see: babysitting poppy-growing Islamic dopeheads, or securing our own country. What to do, what to do . . .

Ron Paul: Highways claim more than 9/11 killed^

I believe that the initial invasion of Iraq was an appropriate use of defensive and retaliatory force. Are you saying that you disagree?

Nope.

Although I would have done it differently, both in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Flatten the infrastructure
Kill the leaders
Break the countries up on ethnic lines
Set the ethnic groups at each other's throats
Walk away

The message is pretty clear, F with us, and you personally will die, we will destroy all you hold dear, and your country will simply cease to exist.

Nation building? *spit*

Well, no sh*t, captain obvious. You think that one up all by yourself, or did you have help?

Why are re-building Afghanistan AGAIN?
They just blow up anything we give them. They do not respect us or what they are given. However, they also have little respect for things they build.

So why waste our time, our money and our soldier’s lives for ignorant and arrogant ingrates?

“We could easily find $5 billion for a wall.”

How about if you try hard?

Truth be told, $10 billion would do a decent job, and could probably get put on contract before the 2020 election.

I’ve got another much better idea to get the democrats to approve funding for the wall.

Non-essential.

Most essential services remain open, while the non-essential functions will remain closed until funding is approved. But, non-essential functions also come with non-essential jobs or non-essential workers.

Son, what Trump should do is to issue a warning or even a threat that, he will be examining the non-essential jobs and non-essential workers, and make a lot of cuts in non-essential programs and non-essential workers, all with the goal of cutting ‘federal waste’ and cut or reduce the federal budget.

I’m thinking that, democrats LOVE BIG GOVERNMENT, including the non-essential programs and won’t jeopardize any government programs and any government jobs.

SCARE the democrats to death with the cuts in NON-ESSENTIAL, which they deem essential to their causes.

FBI budget they deign to divulge: almost 9 billion.
NSA budget: Snowden said it was around 50 billion. They admit around 10 billion.

The point is that it’s all kabuki theatre if they are fighting about a 1 time 5 billion or so expenditure. Good grief the NSA is the biggest employer in Maryland. They are never going to allow any sort of viable barrier in my opinion.

Money is not the problem.

The political establishment is the problem.

And the Russians are laughing at us for falling into the same quagmire that they were stuck in for years.

But don’t forget...during the 8 Dark Years, Afghanistan was the “good war” and Iraq was the “bad war”, according to the DemocRats. They won’t let this one get away from them without a fight.
