Any sane person knows we give Mexico Aid and that money will be redirected to the wall if Mexico doesn't build that wall. We have the leverage. Though the left doesn't understand leverage and capitulates to every soft country in the world.

People are so wrapped up in a bubble, they don't understand the ways we could CRIPPLE mexicos economy if we wanted to.
They're going to pay for the damn wall, whether it's up front or on the back end. Every fricking penny.

I'm discouraged to see you guys not realize anyone of any political affiliation or walk of life recognizes bullshite when they see it. I'm of the side where logic and reason prevails for me, personally. If you eat up what ever is served to you, that's actually pretty Lib of you. Keep hoping for promises with nothing in return... The Lib way.

Like when Trump said he would release his tax returns when Obama released his birth certificate.

Good times.

That aid would take decades to pay for it. Most of it is reimbursement for Mexico helping us in our War on Drugs. You end the aid, they will not help.

There will be some Bs accounting thing that Trump does or he will simply admit that he wasn't serious about it. Either way most of his fans won't care.

It will look a lot like a fence since he isn't planning to replace what is already there.

OK then, what happens when President Trump issues a travel ban to Mexico? Tourism is a yuuuge part of their economy.

First I've heard of a reimbursement, what a crock of shite. Just level with the people and say we are going to build and pay for the damned thing. Any sane individual knows Mexico isn't, if he could just be honest about it he wouldn't look so bad backtracking.



What fricking difference does it make to you? Why don't you go on tangents about your tax money being spent on stupid shite that the media doesn't tell you about.

Or how about taking money from countries that misuse money they receive from the US?

I guarantee you can find money somewhere in the federal government to pay for said wall. Get the frick over yourself. You're acting no different than people asking for Trumps tax returns. For the life of me, I have no idea why anyone cares about those either, other than having an agenda and something to point your finger.

Pretty sure everyone would laugh at him. Luckily he's not that stupid... I hope.

Because he said he would release them, and then he didn't.

It raises the question, when can we believe what Trump says?

He said he'd win.

He said we'd get tired of all the winning.

He said we'd make American great again.



So far ... he's 1 for 3 ... with the other two in progress.

The trouble here being that the universe that you live in is not real - a universe that only black lives matter that are taken by white (or white variant) police matter, and not all lives matter. A universe where one of the most corrupt human beings not incarcerated is who you see as most fit to lead the worlds most powerful Country. A universe where right is wrong, wrong is right, and up is down.

That's irrelevant, he said he'd do something, but he didn't do it. That tends to show a lack of credibility.

What else has he said he'd do, that he's not going to do? Does credibility not matter anymore?

So we can believe two-thirds of what he says. Got it.

He says a lot of stuff. Which two thirds can we believe?
