“what is Israels’s true capital.”
oops
[We live in interesting times.]
And it’s been getting more interesting since 2008.
That was the first time I saw mass hysteria on a national and a world-wide basis.
That was really, really weird to see. And it continues to this day.
You don’t care what I think yet here you are, taking the time and effort to reply to me.
Trump never fought very hard when the GOP was in control. If Paul Ryan was not going to fund the wall, what made him think Nancy Pelosi would? The wall should have been a day one priority. But he kept signing one GOP spending bill after another even when they specifically forbid any wall spending. Why the hell would he sign that? If you just got elected and the Congress is forbidding you from doing your central promise of the campaign...THAT is when you go to war. That is where you have the political capital. You don’t wait for the opposition to take control.
This is not good for 2020. Anyone who doesn’t realize that is blind. Not only is this a broken promise, but it’s the type of political loss that will carry on. Remember when Bush lost on Social Security reform? He pretty much threw in the towel at that point. He was never the same. The rest of his presidency was on cruise control. That’s what may happen here.
The only thing left for us to hope for is that Ruth Bader Ginsberg croaks before 2020.
“They the votes to override in both Houses...and that means they likely have the votes to impeach and convict in the Senate if he tries anything along the emergency declaration lines. It’s checkmate. He is going to have to give up the issue and let the caravans in, all of them in future as well. Open borders will remain the policy as long as Congress has its current makeup. Game over. We lost.”
Oh really?
And you know this to be so how?
I am so fed up with the incessant negativity and ill-informed commentary put up as factual by you whining bed wetters. You invade FR, like squatters, spewing mindless nonsense, acting as if you were some band of miraculously endowed clairvoyants.
The truth is that you don’t know jack.
I am so bloody tired of this abominable gas lighting, done by our own side!
You are a cabal of cowardly defeatists, and little more.
I’ve been busy...partly to keep from watching TV. So I’m checking in the news to see how everyone that counts, feel about our President.
I heard one “he was the only man in the room”. I like that.
Let’s be honest, Trump has been paddling up the river for over 2 years and it’s not easy!!!! No other man could stand what he has.. and come out every day, still fighting.
Looks to me he took Graham’s advice. The problem with 3 weeks with those lying dims, it puts the situation right back to square one.
As for pelosi, she will eventually bite that snake too many times and it will bite her once and for all! She is one of those women and there is no dealing with them... even in a divorce, they see to it they ruin you right at the same time they are taking all you have. There is no making deals with such a woman. You DEFEAT her! and it will come.
The other dims and gopers who still hate Trump voted against him for revenge.... don’t give him anything until I feel vindicated ... if then. Just like mccain... full of it. They will wear out one day...
I stand with Trump all the way. I’m disappointed today.. I wanted him to hold out... and I did not know pelosi had that much power to hold over the President of the United States... but the whole of the GOP is not standing behind Trump, so this is where we are..
The President is not finished with this. I don’t like the caravans coming....don’t like it one bit. There is nothing right or lawful to let them storm our borders! Where are the level heads that dare to stand up and say NO.. this is not right!! The laws were not written for what is going on today.... the dims are using them to get their way!!
They have no more room to put them after they climb over the border... they have to let them go. Doesn’t seem to be able to get that law changed either... to NOT hold them, but return them... and you know the dims want them here...and the judges are still stacked in their favor.
I, for one, do not like to be forced to do what is wrong and what I don’t want to do. I go with the quote “it’s better to ask for forgiveness than permission”. I’d get the most daring persons I know... with credentials... and barnstorm a way to do what has to be done.. It’s the right thing and the progressives.. the libs... the dims.. are on the wrong side of this equation... it will lead to disaster.
DO what has to be done....and for God’s sake...FIRE MUELLER and get rid of that varmit... that snake.. he is not for investigating... he’s after Trump... for God’s sake, how long are we going to let them pervert our laws to suit their dirty crimes!!!!!
There are many reports of what those with decades of experience want. The left wants to focus on some who say fence. There are others who say wall. A fence is not a wall. A NYT article (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/03/22/us/politics/border-patrol-wall-immigration-trump-senate-democrats.html )argued that agents don’t want a wall, yet from the article:
“Customs and Border Protection officials said Border Patrol agents were asked to identify “gaps” in border security, not to propose solutions. They said that Border Patrol sector chiefs, from San Diego to the Rio Grande Valley in Texas, have voiced support for a border wall.”
Interesting their support was for a wall. It would be interesting to have an objective survey of agents for their actual preference, but it will never happen as too much politics involved and the objective of the left is to lessen whatever protection is developed, and more importantly to make it not permanent.
Well, then - I guess we might as well just slit our wrists and take a nice warm bath. I mean, really - at this point, what difference does it make? The world is going to come to an end in 12 years! Just ask AOC.
Another cuckold pearl clutcher - with a carnal knowledge of large objects inserted into one’s rectum, and bragging of his inordinate supply of Vaseline.
Are their any men on this site?
“Trump never fought very hard when the GOP was in control.”
You lost me with your opening line.
Trump had neither grace period nor “political capital.” He was under constant brutal attack from the democrats, his own party, the media, much of his staff, the Justice Department, FBI, you name it.
A lesser warrior would have crumbled and resigned within six months. That’s what DC expected. Trump fought against all odds and is still fighting for us.
If it weren’t for your gratuitous RBG hope, I would take you for a troll.
And all I can think of is the line: “Cut the cake!” - and there rolls out the Death Mobile. One way or the other the left will be defeated. If not through political action - then by violence ... Because that is the lesson of history.
DU misses you. All is forgiven - you may return and take your rightful seat among the dimwits.
"Our side"? I'm on the same side I've been on from day one, the restore America, deport illegals, build the wall side.
Giving Trump as pass on his growing list of failures only helps the other side
Which side are you on?
Three weeks. Then the wall and NO DACAs
I'm sure there's plenty, but the wusses stick out like a sore thumb. I'm a 71 year old woman, who spent 25 years in uniform dispensing justice to prison convicts which included rapists, murderers, pedophiles, etc. Grew a pair of balls, and a spinal column a long time ago, and haven't lost them yet, despite being retired for 15 years.
It is crap just pushing the fight back a month. Since he blinked it will be even a bigger push back by the dems later. F!!!!!!!
Constructive INFORMED criticism is one thing - but running around like headless chickens, and wildly screaming “Trump has betrayed us! All is lost!” smacks of the kind of tactics used by gas lighting leftists. Don’t want to sugar coat? OK - but that’s no excuse for these individuals to act like a$$holes, hardwired to “full retard.”
You can always grab your rifle and head to the southern border ... or to D.C.
They don't deserve vaseline.
