This story is breaking
They don’t call Fox News the cheap labor express for nothing
This is not a compromise
This is a sellout.
Sweet pea, you were sold down the river long ago by the Uniparty. We don’t elect a king and you need to understand that.
FNC: No declaration of emergency.
Well, that suggests a cave. I hate to say it.
Its hard to overstate the importance of the wall. The American people time and time again have asked for a wall. We’ve paid for all kinds of crap we didn’t want or demand. We’ve been demanding this for decades. Caving on the wall is abandoning the will of the nation I hope that’s not what just happened.
Maybe Trump sees the writing on the wall..look at what America has become..the left threatening to kill CHILDREN for wearing MAGA hats.
And not a peep from the elected GOP about that.
Another freeper posted that Rush said this is all about the Superbowl.
Because the elected GOP wants Trump gone too..they are counting the days til November 2020
Right on. Go to (thelibertydaily.com) same format w/o the BS.
Have they Mutinied against Nancy ,LOL
Supposedly Trump is getting his “Down Payment” I wonder how much it is..20 bucks..50 bucks
I'd rather kiss a crack whore than shake hands with most of them.
I've getting a funny feeling my car won't start on the next election day......
Troll, stop posting her pic.
We were in a similar situation a year ago WITH REPUBLICAN MAJORITIES. I think most people have forgotten the results then. We had explanations of why we need to accept it but “it will be different next year” - it’s not so far.
There’s no option but for Trump to “go full Obama” and say “to hell with courts and congress, I’m spending money where I want and signing executive orders to do what my supporters want”. Hopefully that’s where things are going but my optimism is pretty low.
You called it, Hound.
I would reckon the apologies will be pouring in today lol.
Why are you posting pics of the president?
This better not be it.
My GUESS is that Trump will approve a no-strings CR for 2-3 weeks so everyone can get paid.
Then we’re right back where we started, without 35 days of leverage.
No spine, if true. The wall ain’t happening, folks.
