“There should be a ban against posting WP fake news.”
The same people ranting and raving that we are losing because the WP said so, spent the last 2 years calling the WP fake news!! They keep saying that Trump promised that ALL this will get done in the first days of his Presidency...anybody over the age of 12 who believed that could happen in DC should be fitted for a straight jacket...and fast:)
I want my WALL!!
I want my tax cut!!
I want 13 million illegals out now!!
I got news for you, you won’t get a 2,000 mile long wall, you’ll get maybe 400 miles and the rest will be a very good fence. And if you think anybody can get all the illegals out, forget it. Trump will do the best he can. Problem is he doesn’t have enough support in Congress to get it done in full.
The nasty little secret is that if you sent all the illegals packing tomorrow, areas like South Florida, L.A. etc... would go into a recession. When you have a million illegals in 3 counties, you have the support structure for all those people...teachers, doctors, nurses, firefighters, police, administrators, etc....that’s a lot of jobs and most of them have big, fat mortgages; all those good paying jobs gone; all those overpriced houses and condos in foreclosure.
That’s why when push comes to shove, you have to do it in stages; the local economies will not survive any other way.
It's the word "wall" that is being wrongly tossed around.
Israel defines their "wall" as a fence.
IIRC, Hillary used the term wall very early on to define the security issue with Mexico. But her "wall" was a "fence".
“Problem is he doesn’t have enough support in Congress to get it done in full.”
How is it that when Obama was in office, the federal government was shutdown and the Republicans got blamed, until they caved to Obama’s agenda? why couldn’t Trump insist on money for the wall, defunding Planned Parenthood, etc, and when the government got shut down because democrats wouldn’t support such a bill, then Trump could point the finger at the intransigence of the demoncrats for causing the government to close. can’t the repubs play the same game as the dems? forget how the MSM would react. “weak as water” as Mrs. Slocum used to say.
You’re right. Just like all the illegals didn’t just show up overnight; it will take years of a steady flow out for it to correct itself.
Hopefully the illegals will get to the point they would rather self deport so they can come back later rather that wait to get a traffic ticket, get on the radar, then deported and told if they come back it’s an automatic year in prison and goes up from there. I want to believe most the illegals did come here for a better life but should not have come without permission which is as much our fault as it is their for being so lenient about it for so long.
States like California is where the biggest problems are due to their extremely high illegal population. Gotta get rid of that dang anchor baby loophole too.
