Because Mitch said he wouldn't address it until after the mid-terms.

If the problem is so serious, why wait?

It’s going to lead many to believe now that the problem isn’t all that serious.

I agree. If we can fart around until the next election cycle (or beyond), then where is the crisis?

Ann Coulter supports whatever is convenient for Ann Coulter. Period.

She rides whatever horse she believes will get her face on television, or more book sales.

The fact that she made her bed with Bill Maher, and others of questionable character is sufficient evidence to demonstrate that her sincerity is questionable. Would you sleep with a hardcore progressive? Would you have anything to do with one? Ann Coulter is a commentating opportunist, who likes to attract public attention - and gain additional Twitter followers to her cult of personality.

You can judge someone by the company they keep: Ann + Bill Maher = ZERO conservative credibility.

She is gas lighting Trump’s base, and needs to be called out for doing so.

No, but you seem to think that Trump has magical powers by which to bend others to his will. He is still limited by the Constitution, and his own respect for the rule of law. He cannot, on his own, demand arrest warrants, nor incarcerate political opponents. Again, he is the executive officer of a representative constitutional republic - not a king. For some unknown reason, many on this board seem to have forgotten that salient point.

She was on DJT’s bandwagon when 90% of this forum said he was a “stalking horse” for Hillary.

She was his FIRST ardent supporter.

She wrote an ENTIRE BOOK on her support for him.

And, she is the BEST, STRONGEST, MOST FULL-THROATED ANTI-IMMIGRATION VOICE IN THE COUNTRY. She has ALWAYS been FERVENTLY ANTI-IMMIGRANT, including LEGAL IMMIGRATION.

They are not anti Trump folks, they are lets fight folks
 
There's discernment in play here. The "let's fight folks" can interact, can make sense, have something to contribute, then there are others who contribute nothing worthy to any debate, just pop up and toss grenades then disappear. Classic troll behavior that detracts from the experience at FR.

you seem ignorant about how to hire people who will help you achieve your goals instead of hiring some good old boy senator who recuses himself.

The buck stops in the oval office no matter what apologists may say.

To: All

The only real point is how things evolve from here to the general election in 2020 and what support Trump, if re-elected, has for his agenda then. Anything he can do to get partial victory between now and then is fine, but the problems are not going to change drastically from now to the start of 2021, and he is trying to position himself to deal with them in the second term. Nothing will be ideal in this two year period with Democrats in charge of the House. But a lot will depend on who is offered up as their candidate in 2020. There’s a long game being played out. As for a wall, what you really want is effective border enforcement and that might take a multi-pronged approach. I never saw how a wall would work east of El Paso, and west of there, it’s probably best to have a combination of walls near strategic crossings, and electronic surveillance in long portions between them, beat the encroachers to the nearest road. This is how the Canadian border is managed. People think, oh you can just sneak across in the wilderness, and maybe you can but somebody knows it happened and is waiting on the logging road exit at some tiny town with a response. You can have effective national security without one continuous wall. The question is, how to guarantee effective law enforcement in a corrupt legal environment.

So many challenges for the president — but who else is there to face them? (I’m not eligible so don’t go there).

More gas lighting clickbait.

Gateway Pundit is hardly a reputable source. Jim Hoff has about as much integrity or credibility as Twitter and Facebook.

I really do wish that Jim Robinson would ban GP from FR.

The Courts have intruded in issues they shouldn’t for decades. That’s why the progressives fight for their agenda in the Courts. They have spent time and money to ensure the Courts rule their way.

We were fortunate to get him. Imagine if it had been Her Thighness.

President Trump pushed Jerusalem up a notch. It is prophesied by God that it will be a burdensome stone. President Trump, by moving the embassy, which is correct, just really showed what is Jerusalem’s true capital.

And that issue is going to bring the world to battle. I don’t say that because I’m hoping for war - simply that God’s Word says it’s going to happen.

It’s going to be the world against Israel. In the final analysis, all the world (pretty much) under the Antichrist, gathers against Israel.

Then the King of Kings will Return.
