Yes there are some trolls suddenly posting anti-Trump diatribes, but I’m equally alarmed by the rush of some FReepers to condemn solid Trump supporters who have raised significant concerns about both the sell-out Dem-GOPrat legislation, and the strategy that brought us to this situation. I don’t doubt President Trump’s sincere desire to protect America, but he got rolled by McConnell. He’s been getting bad advice and no support from the open borders traitors. Unless he makes it clear that he will not obey any court order that attempts to limit his Constitutional authority to build the wall pursuant to this National Emergency, this his declaration is meaningless. The courts will attempt to stop him. He can’t afford another back-down, or he will have effectively surrendered to the Deep State. If even 3% of the President’s 2016 voters are turned off by these events his re-election is doomed. At some point he needs to go all-in against Congress.
Out of 438 people in Congress, you and I had about 154 people on our side.
I don’t think there’s much you can do with those odds.
President Trump is one man fighting an impossible situation. Who we should be angry with is our so-called “representatives” in both the House and Senate. NOT ONE of our politicans represent us. Not one of them gives a rat’s derriere about Americans especially white Americans.
I simply have had it...
I will stand with President Trump until the end of his term, but for the rest, I care nothing.
True... That logic could be applied across the board!
More nonsense.
The bill makes it easier for adult and juvenile illegal aliens to enter the US. That is not a “slam” against the President, but rather a comment on what is in what he signed.
I don’t know what’s going on. Considering how bad, dangerous, and lawless our corrupt stasi state is, I wouldn’t be surprised if PDJT is under the gun.
I don’t want to believe the alternative.
The Media loves hyping the shutdown.
Don't be surprised if it comes out later that the POTUS choices were
- sign the bill and declare a National Emergency with the support of the GOPSo he took the money and ran.- veto the bill and watch Congress override his veto along with refusing to support the National Emergency declaration.
Let’s all get a life. There are more important things to focus on, like the upcoming baseball season. I’m not listening to politics radio anymore. Nothing I can do to change things, and I don’t need to get worked up over stuff that I can’t change
Oh darn! Those gosh-darned democrats outsmarted us again! I guess our washington generals will beat the globetrotters next time. It almost makes you think they really aren’t serious. As far as the emergency decree: How many minutes until a liberal judge blocks any real action?
Great time to raise money for a human trafficking startup! JOBS!!!
Any emergency decree will be locked up in court until WAY after the next election.
It’s null and void.
Meanwhile, child trafficking is in full swing...
How bout a continuing resolution? Anything but signing this unconstitutional turd of a bill.
One thing that I am not sure of is how quickly the poison pill pieces go into effect. IF there is a phase-in period, then we could dodge a bullet in that they do not take full effect until the next election cycle (or shortly therefater).
Mitch was on record around the first or second of this month stating he would fight the declaration of a National Emergency.
You’re right on target there > IMO.
Nobody said we were going to be happy about everything that happened while we were attaining our goals.
The wall is important. Once we have it, hopefully we can mop up our interior.
Thank you for a voice of reason. May as well get on with living and stop fretting over things we obviously can’t change.
Yes. The upside is that we have a great president. The first one since 1980. A president that has done wonderful things for our country and has stemmed the tide of globalism.
“For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries” (I Corinthians 16:9 KJV).
Who are the adversaries. For starters, people like you #NeverTrumpers and a large number of the 535 GOP-e congress creatures all lined up against one man.
That fun? Make you feel smart?

Hey, like many I am ticked off and have my share of snark in me. How about an answer to my question instead of replying in kind?
I hear ya...I am sick to death of our government, it is corrupt and filthy to its core.
I wonder how much longer we can ignore this and pretend that we live in a free country for the people by the people?
At least the wall makes is easier for CPB to do their job.
