All the POTUS has to do is ask his supporters to donate $100.00 Bucks each and that wall will be built privately with OUR MONEY!! Go to the ranchers in AZ. and Texas make a deal for leasing their land for the wall and the damned wall will be DONE!!!

No, no, no. Do not negotiate with Democrats. You will get absolutely nothing.

Yes.
But his team needs to call up these RINOs now and get them in line. The GOP clowns in Congress shouldn’t even dare to be talking to the media about “no money for a wall” , they should already know that such a budget would be DOA in the Oval Office.

Where is Trump’s team? What’s Pence doing?

If there is no wall well underway before 2018, it will be far far worse than Bush Senior’s “Read my lips”. Adios Congress. Adios second Trump term.

Not the Capitol, the anti-wall legislators’ residences.

This is the President’s first and most important promise.

It is his modt repeated and most quited promise.

This is a direct attack in him or he has turned into a swsmp creature.

But two can play at that game. Trump can use the threat of the debt ceiling himself. He has to be ready to prioritize payments.

You could also be a little vicious when you do it:

  1. Issue an ultimatum that Congress has to pass a *real* Budget.
  2. Cut all funding/payments to Congress and their offices.
  3. When they start complaining about the unconstitutionality (citing, of course, Amd. 27) tell them that their pay hasn't been altered, but that there's simply no budget from which to draw their pay.
  4. Laugh.

I do believe you would be in a small minority around here thinking like that.

I think the country’s biggest threat is immigration; both legal and illegal. The next biggest threat is the dem party working against the American people and trying to organize people of color to fight white Americans. I consider the dem party to be domestic terrorists.

We can’t fight the second biggest enemy until we secure our borders once and for all with a wall, technology, and boots on the ground. The second way we secure it is to make sure there’s no reason to come here, ie no jobs and no freebies. None. Well a bottle of water would be okay I guess. Getting rid of the anchor baby loophole which was never designed for illegals to become citizens simply by plopping a runt on the pavement here. That is probably sandwiched between the first and second most important things we need to do. All illegals must leave. Period.

We don’t have plenty of time. That’s a big mistake to think like that. We are in a highly urgent situation needing to be addressed firmly and with conviction. Play time is over.

The GOP will fall like a house of cards when the nation goes for a third party. It is happening and the GOP will rue the day they thought they could ignore the will of he people.

It’s too sickening to think about.

How we let characters that should have been meeting once a week four times a year become our masters.

The founders are turning.

Who needs democrat approval? Republicans control both Houses of Congress and the presidency. USE IT!
