They looked like hapless singles on a blind date that went horribly wrong, desperate to find a way out.
They looked like corpses with two much make up on. It was a bit freaky.
I liked his speech. All except the part where he referenced Obama’s wall. It’s a silly comparison and sounded petty.
Silly and petty may be the only way to reach some voters, or Congress critters.

He never mentioned “Obama’s wall”, you ASSUMED he meant Obama.
MOST rich politicians, including Obama, Pelosi, Romney, etc... live in GATED COMMUNITIES - that is a FACT! WHY do they live inside those gated communities?
To impede the traffic of everyday riff-raff, to stop trespassers, to discourage unknown people from being inside their areas and to provide extra SAFETY for their families!
So, the comparison was pretty damn good to me:
Why do politicians deserve this type of added protection?
Why do everyday Americans NOT deserve this added protection?
“I liked his speech. All except the part where he referenced Obama’s wall. It’s a silly comparison and sounded petty.”
Really? It didn’t sound the slightest bit silly or petty to me. In fact, I use that very comparison every time I get into a discussion about this.
I also use the same comparison when discussing gun control - i.e., why do Democrat politicians want to eliminate the use of guns for self protection, yet they surround themselves with armed guards?
Pointing out this hypocrisy and these double standards that are inherent in the Democrats’ position is a very important part of making the case for a wall - because it proves that they DO understand the problem and that they DO know a wall is the solution - after all, they apply the same exact principle (a wall) in their own private life. It proves they are simply choosing not to solve a crisis because the crisis works to their political advantage.
