This story is breaking
The president is not the problem. We have a GOP Congress that is filled with closet Dems, traitors and puppets to the Deep State. This s**t should have been taken care of the last two years when they had control of both chambers but it wasnt. Its time to tell the president to abandon the GOP and go independent. I left the Democrat Party to join the GOP. Im only sticking with them until Trump leaves office, and then Ill go independent for good!
Watch...Markets are setting up for a big short no matter what the news... up 200 points...watch for a selloff no matter WHAT news we get..
He is discovering what it is like to deal as one man against the entire government establishment and government class. All parties in D.C. are against him and for themselves. It going to be up to the people rising up against the society.
Personally, Id like to see D.C. razed and the earth salted there so nothing could ever grow back up...but this effort, electing a president to change an establishment is over. Unless the military is willing to help him take over I dont know what beyond 50 million rising up thats going to change anything (the funny thing is we always called the FBI/DOJ and Establishment effort a coup against Trump, when all along we needed a coup against THEM, they have ALL the power!).
I suspect Im through voting...indeed, it serves no purpose but to put another target on your back. When someone organizes an army, ill Be there.
I’m hoping he’s late because the preview is getting blasted.
Or they are all on the take from the cartels.....they paid one Mexican governor 100 million dollars. How much would it take for a congressman? Nancy probably gets the biggest check of all.
Guns will rust away before we have a civil war.
The market has been up since it opened this morning.
Meet your new Fuehrer
Is this Drudge thread the “official” thread on today’s announcement (whenever it comes)?
Sad if it is.
I did the same thing and I agree with your post. No hope in working with congress. IMO he’ll have to go rogue.
Probably true...people need to be starving, and even then it doesnt always work. Nevertheless, time to check out of political activism, this society is heading down, probably eventually end up every man for himself.
Trump forgot what he wrote in his own book.
He didn't want a Wall anymore than Pelosi but he knows his base does.
What’s an additional three weeks going to make..the Dems and Republicans are going to give him his wall..of course NOT
This little drama plays out in two parts.
1. People run about, wave their hands, shout and scream.
2. Trump will do as he has promised in his own way, in his own timeline.
I’ll rely on Trump.

Nonsense.
I hope your wrong.
If they have the votes to override his veto (which is what this means), they likely have the votes to impeach and convict if he goes rogue too. Hes boxed in and has NO power now. Nancy and Chuck rule with complete authority. Hes a figurehead only for as long as they allow it.
I wonder if he wonders why he ever tried?
Listen here, petunia....you should be waking up each morning thanking God above that we don’t have President Clinton.
President Trump is fighting as hard as he can - he is one person. He has already done amazing things for this country.
What have you done for our country lately?
Petunia? Thats the best youve got dickweed...weak.
I agree...the man is a Patriot and knows the cost to this country without a border...no border...no country.
