And Trump is losing his base

Foolish idiot comment. This is only triggering never-Trump stooges, providing them a chance to spew and spread doubt and concern. Not slick, not clever. I've been seeing people like you pop out of the wood work for years. I don't trust you and I'm not buying what you never-Trump hacks are selling.

Fact is if not for Trump you'd be listening to Hillary Clinton giving progressive speeches from the Oval Office about dissolving our sovereignty and borders. And posers like you would be blaming Trump for her election win. You're pathetic.

Notice that Trump never mentioned that crappy border funding bill? Not once....has he signed it yet or not?

There is more than one way to skin a polecat.

I heard Jonathan this morning that the construction will not be impeded by lawsuits brought by the traitorous Democrats while it is in litigation. The work to protect this country can proceed...and that’s still a win.

Looks like it passed with veto proof majorities.

I don’t see how defending our national border is a constitutional crisis. Think how sad that is.

Your constant reference to female lapdogs is starting to worry me.

Interesting insofar as he was trying to tranquilize his listeners two days ago:

Not really. Rush has been pounding on the GOP on a daily basis for months for the garbage bills coming out of Congress and their hysterical hatred of POTUS.

I don’t know if he signed the bill.

He has 10 days to sign it.

https://lowenthal.house.gov/legislation/bill-to-law.htm

The bill is sent to the President for review.
A bill becomes law if signed by the President or if not signed within 10 days and Congress is in session.
If Congress adjourns before the 10 days and the President has not signed the bill then it does not become law (”Pocket Veto.”)
If the President vetoes the bill it is sent back to Congress with a note listing his/her reasons. The chamber that originated the legislation can attempt to override the veto by a vote of two-thirds of those present. If the veto of the bill is overridden in both chambers then it becomes law.

Boom!!

ACOSTA: "What do you say to your critics who say you are creating

a national emergency?"

TRUMP: "Ask the Angel Moms. Do you think I'm creating something?

Ask these incredible women who lost their daughters and their sons

....You are fake news"

I don’t get people who turn on a dime whenever things don’t look like they want them to be. Saying you think for yourself does not necessarily mean that you do that with the full knowledge of what’s actually happening or how things work.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////

au contraire. I realize there is no neat fix and Trump has no magic wand. I have faith that if a solid stand was taken, although it may be get ugly, eventually it’s what we need. Instead we will become the frogs in the boiling water. Because we elected a man who doesn’t seem to know how to take a stand.

As I’m typing I heard a news blurb from Trump talking about drugs and criminals coming across the border. HE IS LOST ON THE FACT THAT MILLIONS of ordinary civilians coming across is the biggest problem. People that are breaking our culture and stealing our money EVERY DAY. Day by day, month by month, year by year. We are frogs in the water. And the bill he signed is going to make this problem just worse. And apologists for Trump like yourself aren’t helping either.

Yes, I did. Have you been paying attention at all to Rush? He’s bewn quite clear POTUS is not the problem here and has viciously attacked the GOP on a near daily basis. He’s been very consistent on that.

“There are Trump supporters and Agenda supporters. Trump supporters trust Trump’s judgment and elected him to use it. Agenda supporters trust Trump as long as he follows their agenda and question his judgment every time he doesn’t.” - Bill Mitchell

First lets get straight I nor others who support our President are not making apologies for Trump...he’s doing very well without the need for that.... What we do understand is how the man operates and with that the battles he’s up against’ and those opposing his agenda’ and the man himself....

I disagree that you have recognition that there is ‘no neat fix’ etc. or you would not be posting as you are doing. Further you stating...”we elected a man who doesn’t seem to know how to take a stand.”...is just the highest form of insult. ......additionally insulting his voters in proclaiming “we will become the frogs in the boiling water”.

This isn’t about illegal immigration...it’s about a planned and orchestrated invasion of our country on several fronts and with that Congressional leaders who fail to see or are advancing this agenda of repopulating our country.

This was NOT brought on by Trump as you well know...it’s bee allowed and encouraged for decades. So I will give this President everything he needs in support as he’s the first to truly attempt to stop it.....regardless of the opposition and congressional leaders failure to support him as they should be .

If any one van should be blamed this did not go through before..lay it at Ryans feet.

****************************************************

Sorry but I disagree. He certainly talks a great game. Special prosecutor for Hillary, defund planned parenthood, “the wall just got 10 feet taller’. Great rhetoric. But empty. And of course it’s everyone’s fault but Trumps. I note that he is pre-emptively blaming the courts for when they shut down his emergency. I’m sick of it. But I would be standing and applauding if he shut down the government and called out every feeble politician that backs this sad bill and start finding candidates to take their place come 2020. It’s Trump that didn’t have faith in us, not vice versa.
