Agreed - but everything in its time and Trump is a master at setting the clock in motion and being on-cue.

Must be that hot Italian blood - my Polish ancestry is a bit more prone to pragmatism.

How many millions of $ in aid do we give to Mexico every year ?
Time to seriously consider what we get for our money (and it is OURS.)

It is. Half Sicilian and half Naples.

I think it’s the Sicilian part. My mom’s pop was a psychotic gangster.

I look like him.

I’d like to think i’m much, MUCH different than him.

Sometimes I’m not so sure.

My BiL was Polish. He WAS pragmatic.

GREAT guy and he died at 62.

They played TAPS at his funeral. I never saw it before. Tears fell.

He was a medic embedded with the marines for a year or so.

Got a medal.

You Polish guys are tough :)

It should be NONE!!

Not a dime!!

And tax the money sent there from the US like he said.

I LOVE the guy and I hope he has a big plan i’m not smart enough to understand.

I’m brash and move without thinking.

I hope he knows what his plan, whatever it is, works.

There’s always a method to his madness. Give him the benefit of the doubt.

You are advocating murdering real people:

How is it murder? They CHOOSE to break the law and use dangerous and illegal substances. No one forces the needle into their arm or the powder up their nose.

They were always corrupt!
They were never not corrupt!

There goal and always has been to get you to buy, listen or watch them. Nowadays with TVis a low form of entertainment! If you’re looking for noble intent of an unbiased presentation of the the facts? Look elsewhere!

It’s clear how Coulter will vote; just look for which way the wind is blowing.

Well I guess that makes you the only man in the world that knows how Coulter will vote.

Trump must declare martial law on the border and enforce it or he can just keep complaining while the invasion continues. He has subordinates that defy him daily without consequence. His homeland security chief was a known #NeverTrumper yet there she is. Sure they could impeach him but if he doesn't get a handle on the border it won't matter because he will not get re-elected period. That is what Coulter was warning about and now so does Malken and any other thinking citizen.

I will say that Coulter got unnecessarily insulting but she is exactly right about immigration and deeply disappointed like a few of diehard Bush supporters.

What's past is prologue with Coulter so she's easy to predict politically.

Trump must declare martial law on the border and enforce it

If he declared martial law, he's lose the Republican majority he needs to ward off impeachment & possible imprisonment so I'm ok with him letting congress fix the problem. After all they created it. If you're looking to blame someone for the open border, blame the Chamber of Commerce and Tom Donohue, not Trump. He owns our politicians and few realize it.

Meanwhile over in the real world............

Major players in the democratic congress threaten every day to impeach him. If that threat keeps him from acting then we have the wrong guy in office and no, I don't know of a right guy. Trump is the only guy which is why he must go to the wall so to speak or the country is over.

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like where men were free. ~ Ronald Reagan

Ahmmm...Martial law. Seriously? You can't be because that isn't happening and you know it. Right? For an Octogenarian you're painfully naive but please continue clinging on to Ms Anorexic, she'll disappoint you yet. Guaranteed.

You asked what he could do, I answered. I also agree it isn't likely to happen but it is probably the only way to stop the invasion and you know that.

I watched turd polishers work overtime for 8 years of GW and I don't care for a repeat.

We're two years into a crippled presidency, so we're 6 years away from any Bush comparison. I'm not prepared to toss Trump overboard, but please do as you see fit. Neither of us has time to waste playing Grumpy Old Men.

Peace.

I am not tossing him overboard, I am trying to get him to act forcefully before it is too late.

He has patched hundreds of holes in our boat but leaves the biggest hole of all untouched, so we are sinking, heck maybe we are already sunk and just don't know it.

I know there are many traitors who have fought the President at every turn, he should by now know them as well and act accordingly. Some here thought he could walk in and enforce the constitution and Unicorns would sprout up everywhere, I warned he would have to be a lot more tyrannical than his predecessor to accomplish anything and that caused wailing and gnashing of teeth. Well here we are.
