if you think that 850,000 catch and released invaders yearly is “heading off disaster”, then I’m all out of arguments.

We are facing a disaster at our borders and Trump has done everything within his power to solve the problem

We are facing an invasion and our political, judicial, business and media elite are determined to use every means to let them in and prevent the President from enforcing the law

Trump has tried to force asylum seekers and Mexico to follow international refugee law and Congress looks the other way as Federal Judges block him with illegal injunctions and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court refuses to intervene to stay the injunction as the litigation proceeds at a snails pace

When faced with this level of recklessness, the only solution is to embrace the suck and allow, or even force, the system to collapse sooner than later

Revolution is necessary. The United States is being culturally and biological transformed because some politician and businessman decided that things would be better if, instead of 20 shitty Latin countries, we had 21. And they made this decision to destroy us without the legitimate consent of the people.

Pray a leader rises and says it like it is. I want to do it myself, but don’t yet have the resources to run for office.

What did WE do to deserve that?

After the serial attacks because she told you the truth, why not?

No he hasn't, that is the problem. He faked sending the military to the border twice and continually mislead the people by claiming he was building the wall when clearly he wasn't. I cringed every time he said that at one of his rallies and you should too.

His threats on the border are rapidly losing credibility.

Even with his base.

Correct.

“Really. So many faint of heart the past couple of days. And responding to main stream spin”

The FACTS stand on their own.

Trump says there is a 38 mile stretch of wall along the Rio Grande whit 38 doors, but the government never put the doors on. So there are 38 going holes in the wall people just walk through.

Maybe turning the US around at this point is an impossible task. Consider that it took someone of Trump's audacity just to run and win in the first place. But what if Trump doesn't have what it actually takes to make the hard decisions like Lincoln, Franco, Pinochet et al? Why hasn't California been declared to be in a state of rebellion? Why isn't the militia called out? Why aren't millions of illegals being rounded up and shipped out?

So, we're left to consider that perhaps Trump really is just an narcissist who talked a good game in order to satisfy his own ego by winning the office. But, here's the thing - who else were we going to vote for? If Trump is the best patriots had any chance of electing, but he still falls short, then to what logical deduction does that lead? Which bring us back to the rhetorical question I asked up-thread: when did the German high command know it was all over? When did they begin to make plans in earnest for Paraguay?

In the particular case facing the US, anyone with a clue can see the obvious demographic destiny. Likewise, the appeal of open borders for those who economically benefit is hard to deny. For example, someone like me: I live like a Castilian Spaniard in Mexico City with illiterate peasants available to do my bidding for any task I care to assign. I'm trying to warn people elsewhere of what has already occurred in Calif, but maybe Ossama was right: people will pick the strong horse. If the US has already passed its prime, then the tell is in the cards.

My guess is he had economists and business leaders screaming down his ear. There is no doubt a closure would cause economic damage. Still worth it. Can only hope that officials at the border get Trump to change his mind.

The FACTs?

Freepers reacting to NBC News SanDiego as if they’re not in the fake news realm?

C’mon

It’s not ‘pivot from’. It’s both-and.

First one, then the other. And it looks like it’s working.

Caving Donny caves. It’s what he does. Blusters, tweets and then caves. Even the illiterate illegals have figured the guy out. So they pour in by the hundreds of thousands, forever transforming our homeland. And Caving Donny waves them in.

Can't really spin what I heard the man say with my own two ears. I heard him say "in a year" and I thought "A YEAR?!?!!"

If I am faint of heart...it's because I have to wait a year...
