So give him his f@#!ing wall. He won the election. He is owed this. It may never be completed; it may not work, as hoped. But it is now the only way to reassure a critical mass of Americans that mass immigration is under control, and the only way to make any progress under this president. And until the white working and middle classes are reassured, we will get nowhere. Don’t give it to him for nothing, of course. It should come with a full path to citizenship for all DACA immigrants, as in the proposed deal in January that Trump first liked and then reneged on, under Miller’s toxic influence. But it should also go bigger: a legislative fix for Flores; massive new funding for detention facilities, humane family-friendly housing, and, above all, much more money for the immigration legal system, now completely overwhelmed by asylum cases. If Democrats can show they want to deal with the humanitarian problem as a whole, and are willing to compromise on the wall, they’ll be in a much stronger position going forward than in the recent past.*
If we can stop this border jumping, they are paying for the wall.
Because you have to start somewhere.
And anyone notice that women have the filthiest mouth.
I agree with you. The wall is not enough. We need to end welfare for illegals, birthright citizenship, and chain migration. We also need to drastically limit the conditions that will justify asylum, provide that failing to show up up for an immigration hearing is both a felony and grounds for immediate expulsion without further proceedings of any kind, and provide that registering to vote or voting while in the country illegally is grounds for immediate expulsion without further proceedings after time served. Also, no amnesty. We were promised that in 86.
——If we can stop this border jumping, they are paying for the wall.-—
I’m trying to get real...... that is rationalization to cover the President’s exposed rear end.
BTW, we are not actually stopping the invasion. Not only does it continue, but apparently is increasing. The invasion promoted by Mexico is being aided and abetted by Americans.
How long would it take to fund the wall if we weren’t “helping” the ones already here? A month, 6 Months?
The “watering down” is the same reason Matt Gaetz blew up at Lyin Ryan on the House floor.
The way of words is misleading.
The wall is seen as TRUMP’S WALL
when in reality it is actually a
WALL FOR US!!!
Trump is only attempting to do what WTP wish him to do.
!!!PERIOD!!
They are not immigrants.
Raising the birth rates among our people is vitally important.
Livid Rep. Mark Meadows yells at Speaker Paul Ryan on House floor
Let me guess - these walls and cost of guards are necessary business expenses to protect trade secrets and vital equipment and not paid for out of personal income.

Build the wall NOW!
Let them rely on donations from all the folks that, supposedly love them so much,
We all know how much Liberal’s like to give in support of those beneath themselves.
I agree. Right now it’s less expensive to stop cutting those checks than to fund the wall.
Hell, for that matter, use the funds from the checks to fund the wall.
Those are some things I never thought about, re: voting and not showing up for court.
So many of the problems would be solved without having to pour 1 yard of concrete. But, again, I’d love to see a glorious, YUGE wall, as well.
Oh it will work alright. I still grit my teeth when I think of that scumbag Trent Lott telling the story about his "pet billy goat, Billy", and how no fence could ever hold that goat in, and we're fools to build a wall on the border with the thought that we could keep people out.
a) Lott was a GD liar - I would bet my house he never owned a billy goat
b) If you put up an electrified barb wire fence around a goat pen, I would also bet my house that that goat won't get out
c) Goats aren't some magical, mythical creatures with super powers. Nor are lying politicians, despite what they believe.
Yup, this fake child separation issue was their last attempt to stop this train. On immigration they've already tried: racist, mean, xenophobic, uncaring, anti-American and everything else. The last arrow in their quiver was "Trump hates kids".
Hell, for that matter, use the funds from the checks to fund the wall.
Bingo.... the Dems have already shown a willingness to spend those funds so we shouldn’t have to listen to their BS regarding the budget.
