.... The time is waning when our elected officials will actually consider sacrificing their lives to protect our nation ...... Today ...... Our politicians only wish to support fighting battles overseas ..... and not at our own borders .... Leaving all of us on the front lines of the next Theater of War .... Why do we even have elections any more ...
Anxious GOP - redundancy alert
These bastard republicans are concerned about the American economy, HOWEVER they are NOT concerned about the American taxpayer money going out to feed, house, and cloth these immigrants, they ARE NOT concerned about the many construction jobs being taken from Americans, they are NOT concerned about the MANY American citizens lives that have been lost these murdering thugs, drunk drivers, rapists AND drugs flowing freely over the border, they are NOT one bit concerned about the make up of the country which has become unrecognizable!!!! OH NO they are VERY CONCERNED about how much we will have to pay for tomatoes and lettuce GIVE ME A DAMNED BREAK!!! They dont want Trump to win in 2020 this is OUR number ONE issue, he fails at this issue they think they will be rid of him SCREW THEM!!! They will lose the senate AND they deserve to!!! We lost the house because of house obstruction to MAGA they dont care if they lose as long as they are rid of Trump!!! Well we NEED to be rid of THEM!!!
They’re bought off.
Too many businesses intertwined with cheap Mexican products.
Screw ‘em!
Hells bells, the issue isn't tariffs it is human waves of invaders.
These politicians have no idea how to negotiate. But, they are experts at selling us out.
Because they’re selling us out , that’s why. Chris Smith a Republican from my state NJ is one of them. His office is getting a call from today.
F’ing traitors!!! A prevent meaningful legislation to stop immigrants from coming in, or even from wanting to come in, and then they turn around and oppose any means that Trump is trying to use to accomplish what the American people elected him to do. I have no more use for these people, I am sick and tired of them.
It is one thing to talk about a free market in a theoretical sense. I don’t think any sensible person could disagree with that. However, sometimes you use need to use every tool at your disposal in order to defeat an enemy. And make no mistake, in this regard, Mexico is our enemy.

“{The Hill”: straight from NanctPelosi’s lips.
LOL
Call your GOP Senator and let him know what you think.
“and allow more time for negotiators to reach a deal. “
The negotiations can re-commence after the tariffs are imposed. Then maybe it won’t require all that much time to reach a deal.
As easily as Trump puts the tariffs on, he can take them off.
So this Senator was hired to say that a lot of people don’t want tariffs to start.... Hell, I can do that! Really? This guy is a Senator? Really? That’s all it takes to be a Senator, merely mouth platitudes? I’m gob-smacked.
I hate the GOP. Backstabbing cucks.
I think we need to follow the money. One has to ask why would senate GOP start getting nervous about tariffs on Mexican goods? Not only that but the glaring elephant in the room of the southern border invasion? (let’s call it what it is) Perhaps the dims and some members of the GOP are getting paid...by cartels in Mexico? If I’m a drug cartel boss I would want unfettered access to the southern border. In a sick way it is good business sense.
133,000 apprehended in May, and they don’t catch all of them. How many more got through?
They are anxious because it might work.
Tariffs are not taxes
Why does congress claim approval authority?
Congress retails tax and regulation to the country through K St lobbying/intermediary industry,
Tariffs interfere with Congress business model-the business model that has taken Washington DC from 84th city in the nation per capita income in 2000 to number one as of 2016.
The intent of the Founding Fathers was for Fed.gov to fund itself off tariffs.
The tariff was the main form of federal taxation over the first half of the history of this country, until the income tax emerged in 1913. There is an indisputable chronological correlation between the tariff and phenomenal economic growth. From the late 18th to the early 20th twentieth centuries, the United States steadily developed into the most successful economy in the world.

For Congress to take money in return for tariff regulation would be opening Congress to charges of treason-accepting money from foreign interests and governments for legislative favor.
Taxation and regulation however... has a established and accepted business model.
MAGA!!!!
The US Chamber of Commerxw has spoken!
“Why aren’t these Republican senators calling on Mexico to stop the immigrant invasion?”
Put another way, don’t the Republican senators realize the ever worsening harm the invasion of immigrants is causing us?
