The GOPe is against the Wall as much as the Dems are.
This is illustrating why we’ve had decades of promises, and not even a fence.
Our big problem is the (lying) GOP.
Thank God for President Trump.
Tucker had Cornyn on some time ago grilling him about the wall. It was clear from the interview that he opposed it. He didn’t much care that Tucker told him it was a central issue to his presidential victory.
If a Texas Republican Senator isn’t voting for the wall, Trump is going to have to figure out another way. This myth that it’s just the filibuster standing between us and the wall is exactly that.
It’s maddening to see all the FReepers who still think that the whole National level Democrat vs. Republican charade is worth paying attention to.
No budget for eight friggin’ years. Every one of those years with a built in Porkulus FU to the taxpayer. R’s did nothing.
Homosexual marriage? Big yawn from the Republican party.
Obozo care fully funded? No problem, said the Republican House and Senate.
The DC Republicans don’t want a wall. They want cheap labor for the big donors.
They don’t want to get rid of Obozocare. For eight years they’ve voted against it when they knew it was pointless, and then they say they can’t get rid of it now? They piss on us and tell us it’s raining, and we thank them for the forecast.
They do make a nice noise and say nice words to stay in office, but they actually do squat or support the rigged system behind the scenes.
Look at all the lawbreakers that Issa and Gowdy have put in jail! Can’t name any? It’s OK, because there are so many awesome YouTube vids of Gowdy “destroying” whoever. He’s a carnival barker, a pressure relief valve to keep us yokels from boiling over. In other words, he’s GOP.
Just wait for the actually budget battle. Republicans will be screaming for more spending and fight tooth and nail against actual cuts. They’ll make a show out of defunding PBS and some other sound bite projects but they’ll put the money right back in someplace else.
The National GOP hates the average FReeper, works against our beliefs and interests night and day, and like the victims of years of physical abuse, we keep coming back because “this time they really have changed, they really mean it, and the Dems are bad”.
I’d rather have a Commie Dem Rat in office that at least is more or less up front about expanding Fedzilla than a Republican Elmer Gantry.
To Hell with the National GOP and those who support it in it’s current form.
