ABC/WaPo Poll: Support for Border Wall Soars Among Swing Voters
Breitbart ^ | 14 Jan 2019 | John Binder

President Trump’s proposed wall along the United States-Mexico border has soared in popularity with American voters across the board, as he battles a split GOP-Democrat Congress to secure funding for the barrier. The latest ABC News/Washington Post poll reveals a major shift among nearly all demographic groups across the country when it comes to support for a border wall at the southern border.

This time last year, the poll claimed that only 34 percent of voters supported a wall at the U.S.-Mexico border. Today, support for the wall has climbed to 42 percent overall. Most notable, swing voters are increasingly supportive of the border wall to control immigration.

Oh the irony! Conservatives love a government shutdown.

Are we supposed to pretend it’s a bad thing?

“We build railroads, the Panama Canal, massive dam projects.”

Correction, we USED TO build railroads, the Panama Canal, massive dam projects. As a nation we can barely tie our own shoelaces now. Diversity has “strengthened” us until we are decrepit and senile. We used to have young men who were tigers and young women who could tame them, now we don’t know the difference between men and women. The new “music” of today is enough to make a Buzzard puke. Joe Louis has been replaced by Ru Paul, Annie Oakley has been replaced by Alexandria Ocasio Cortez. Put the average American child in the environment in which I grew up and he or she would most likely collapse in screaming, tears and rage and I had it easier than many I knew. Compared to those who built this nation we are a pathetic group of dimwits and drug addicts and to make it worse many of the dimwits have high IQ scores and graduate degrees and many of the drug addicts have legal prescriptions.

I truly hope that this rant pisses some people off because, if it does not, it proves the truth of what I am saying.

IF the globalists ( the GOPe Cheap Labor Express and the Socialist Dems )could be controlled then there is nothing that the USA can’t do. Globalism weakens the USA.

Same thing with the other delusional hoax gloBULL climate change. The longer we stop crazy anti CO2 green legislation the more people realize it’s a hoax.

Just like ObamaScare. They couldn’t care less about what happens to the rest of us.

And that includes John McCain and GHWB and W.

As they hung around in their country clubs with their Democrat pals, the rest of us can just eat cake.

Do you know if this sign is real? It could easily have been photoshopped.. I spent a couple weeks in So Arizona in 2014 and never saw such a sign. But I didnt travel I-8. Do you have a link?
