“....it is the most glaring unfulfilled promise of the Trump presidency.”
.
How can he build the wall without the funds that he is being denied by the RATs?
Walls can be torn down. Even better: eliminate chain migration; tighten statutory asylum criteria; make e-verify mandatory; prison time for sneak-ins; require skills and English proficiency; and reduce remaining legal immigration.
The wall could be build by taking the money out of the defense budget and allowing the Corp of Engineers to do the construction. This is a necessary first step to stop our country from invasion by enemy’s of freedom.
Staying o the ‘’legal side’’ in 1776 meant kowtowing to the English Crown. The Crown has now been replaced by the DC elite.
The assumption is that the illegal immigrants are going to vote for Democrats. But non-citizens can't legally vote. This means that a double-crime is being committed--illegal immigration and electoral fraud.
But the problem is, these idiot children like this Jeff Whatever continue to spread their distortions. So don’t just complain to the choir here, go to their website, sign in, and contest the issue for the benefit of the wider audience.
Jefferson knew we couldn't always "stay on the legal side of things."
I’ve been preaching this for at least 15 years. Demographics are immutable. There are large sections of this country that are being remade and will not remain with the remnants of America as founded in the future. It’s not if, it’s not when, it’s here now.
Actually, the original Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 grants almost unlimited discretion to the President on immigration issues:
8 U.S.C. §1182(f)
“Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.”
The 1965 Act amends the 1952 Act, but it does not replace it.
The citation above is still the law the of land, but the 1965 Act does forbid the President from discriminating against aliens on the basis of race, religion, etc.
“Discrimination” is the legal theory that most federal judges have used against Trump and the various Executive Orders he has written on immigration.
Since every President from Reagan to Obama has supported massive LEGAL immigration, and ignored illegal immigration, the raw power of the 1952 Act has rarely been used.
Trump has tried to use it, but, speaking personally, I don't think his heart in the effort.
If Trump sincerely wants his Executive Orders to go into effect, he will have to openly defy the Hard Left Judges and risk Impeachment.
And, I don't think he will ever do that.
I am getting quite disappointed with President Trump ,that The Wall is not MUCH farther along . Sick of hearing all the considerations about money , approvals , etc. ORDER IT F-ING DONE !
Use seized drug cartel and other seized monies the fund it . Screw the lawyers , and the courts , with all their stats, appeals and TRO’s .
Order it done and DO IT.
Does anyone remember how quickly the Israelis got theirs done when they decided to do it ?
Super fast ! We need to do the same. Quit pussyfooting around already
The French were inspired by our Revolution to start theirs. It didn’t go well. Ironically the French are showing Americans that the only thing that this evil government understands will be civil unrest. The government obviously has disregarded our laws and grievances for too long. Short of a well regulated and organized protest nothing will happen. Voting has shown that the left is manipulating it to their own benefit. Do you want to die quick or slowly disappear as an American culture. I don’t want either but something radical must be done. We Americans always put our trust in the government doing the right thing and always putting us first. I don’t like paying taxes and then get kicked in the teeth. I guess all I’m saying is that we truly are on the edge of a second revolution. The Declaration of Independence declares that it is our duty to change the government if it devolves into tyranny.

Sorry, we don’t elect a king. It’s quite clear by now that Mattis and the rest of the careerist DOD ticket punchers are fighting POTUS every inch on creative ways of building the wall. They will do the minimum required after teeth pulling because they all have their eyes on post Trump presidency careers. The Uniparty wants open borders and no wall. The Uniparty is who will make them wealthy and send their kids to good schools. Therefore, they will do the minimum required in support of the MAGA agenda. That is what we are fighting now.
the hard truth.
Declare it an invasion, militarize the border and build it.
No we elect Presidents who are not powerless and do not fall on their knees before an unelected judge in Hawaii. Oh wait I guess we did.
Good post.
Yup. Trump has to go all in, put everything on the line, #buildthewall and #draintheswamp or it’s all over but the screaming and the dying.
There is no legacy except saving the country from certain death. The dems are going to impeach him no matter what. Hell, that alone may plunge us into all out warfare.
Look at what the democrats did to the banks. They had the justice dept threaten long prison terms and then settled for billions and billions of dollars which Eric Holder then handed out to groups like acorn or other democrat voter fraud groups. The playbook is there for all to see. Pick groups with money who support illegal immigration and go after them. Use any recovered funds to build the wall. Also immediately after the inauguration PDJT should have announced an eight year military exercise on controlling borders and border wall construction. Use the National guard to sweep from Canada down pushing illegals before you until all are forced to self deport or be arrested. If arrested confiscate all money as proceeds of illegal activity and give to NRA, Judicial watch an so on. Time to fight fire with fire.
Voting the Dems control of the House was the death knell for the wall - what up is likely to come down as soon as the next Dem takes the Presidency.
But then so many things now taken as given will be eliminated and the beginning of the true path to real socialism will begin - the US will look much like Mexico or Venezuela by the end of the Dem President For Life’s regime.
