Brilliant John Thune advocates for what the Democrats want - no wall, no fencing.
To: conservative98
Well, you don’t get a say, so shut up.

No one cares what you think, John.
No one expects you to do a damned thing either, so just go ahead and insert you thumb where everyone knows you keep it.

Defending our borders seems like Defense issue, but maybe that’s just me ...

Thune responded, Im not a big fan of moving money.
.............unless it is giving 10 billion dollars to Mexico. Then it is a good deal.

Our only hope, in the next full session of Congress, is for a massive lightning strike to hit the Capital and take out all who are in the building.

Seriously.... I thought this so called Thune had a deadly disease a few years back and was on the verge of ....... leaving this mortal plane. Maybe I have this nobody confused with another useless GOPer.

ALL of Congress (with a handful of exceptions), of both parties, along with the permanent government employee class, are dead-set against a border wall. Theyve discovered just how easy it is to get rich from a cut of the cartel drug money and a cut of cheap labor payoffs from their corporate patrons.
The government in Washington D.C. is there for the sole purpose of making themselves very, very rich and secure. Nothing else. All the rest of us can go be their peasants.

This is how Trump should play politics. He should AGREE to not make 5 Billion for wall a requirement. But refuse to sign ANY bills with foreign aid. Have the Democrats shutdown the Gov’t over foreign Aid - UNLESS he gets 5 Billion for the wall as well.

We use ships and plane to defend the borders of places like Europe and South Korea. It's about time we defended our own borders.

I saw this report yesterday. In fairness Thune is in favor of allocating the money for the wall. He’s just not in favor of playing budget games of shuffling money around from other programs, like defense, to pay for it.

Trump isn’t shutting down a thing. He won’t do it. Doesn’t have the political capital or spine.

Hes just not in favor of playing budget games of shuffling money around from other programs, like defense, to pay for it. Given the current makeup of the House starting in January, it means it can't happen under his rules. Typical politician speaking out both ends simultaneously.

They are not stupid.
They are complicit.
The GOP has been blocking border security for 30 years since we were promised it in 1986.
