President Donald Trump's statement at the Mexican border implies he no longer believes he can make the United States great again. Or, perhaps he doesn't know how a Great America would act in such a situation.
Trump said: "Our country is full, our area is full, the sector is full, can’t take you anymore. I’m sorry, can’t happen, so turn around -- that’s the way it is,” Trump's statement is pathetic. He sounds like he is whining. He spoke like the head of a weak powerless nation who doesn't expect any improvement in the future.
The president of a Great America would try to take advantage of the presence of the people at the border to build a wall to keep criminals from using the Mexican border. He might declare a humanitarian emergency and hire the border people to build The Wall. He would give them an opportunity to prove they want to work by offering them jobs building the wall. Instead of whining about the number of would be immigrants, he would use the number of "refugees" to justify using emergency powers to protect them from economic distress.
Part of the funding for the program should come from money earmarked for the countries the border people come from. Instead of rewarding the sanctuary cities by increasing their population just before the census that determines how much federal funding they receive President Trump should use part of the funds that go to local governments to pay the wall builders.
The people at the border probably don't understand our badly outdated immigration laws and procedures. They are at the border because they have been told they can find a better life here. They to find a better life because they believe The United States of America is a great nation. Does President Donald Trump?
Agree, author is an idiot who is seeing things in Trump’s words that are not there. Don’t know if this author is a Leftist, but Lhat is typically what leftists do.
Fake News if it’s even news at all!
BTW... Dec 12, 2018 - Washington – Congress has approved a new farm bill rejecting President Donald Trump’s plan to impose work requirements on food stamp.

In the hundreds of postings here in Free Republic rarely is this brought up. It’s Known As Reciprocity. We should be treating anybody illegally crossing the Mexican border into the US the way the Mexican’s do treat any American illegally doing the same,crossing into Mexico. Entry denied fined and possible imprisonment.
If so, may I be the first to say: YOU'RE A DUMBASS!!!
The only way to stop it is to flood sanctuary cities. Then Nancy will stop it. Believe me it wont take long.
You expected some great insight from a broom pilot?

The link is safe. Great story.
Disagree. The best solution is to give each of the illegal attackers a free high speed lead injection and use the bodies to fertilize the Mexican landscape on the other side of our border.
The trash came from the south, it should be thrown back over the fence to the south.
Yawn......
