I never said it was a left or right issue.
Yeah, you did.

If you guys think a wall/fence is a waste of money, why did you overwhelmingly vote for it in 2006 with the secure fence act?



Becuase they realize that the wall is a barrier to the following:

1. Making big dollars off of child trafficking by the legal organizations such as the Catholic Church, Lutherans, Southern Baptist and many others...approximately $59,000 per child.

2. Easy flow of drugs.

3. Easy flow of cheap labor.

I don't either. Churches, government, and all other "institutions" are nothing but elite-protected operations.

Do you have a blog I can check out? I would like to learn more about how the world really works and how we got here historically.

I don’t have any particular question. I just want to know more about the way you see the world working. Do you have any sources you trust that can lay out the true leaders of the world and how they came to be in power? Perhaps a book or website?

Hopefully we can get common sense voter ID laws throughout the nation to stem the flow of illegal and criminal voting.



Voter ID is racist. Forget that every other country in the world does it.

Black people and Mexicans are so non-functioning they are unable to get an ID even if its agreed to send it to them in the mail for free.

According to the DNC of course.

Yep.
Surely Trump's career business negotiations were all conducted with sycophants as foils.

Nancy is shutting down government over a $5B expense. You honestly think that's good policy? You honestly think it's the stuff of a winning hand?

He can't just walk away from the House. If you've ever been in serious negotiations, you'd know that the one who can just walk away from the table has an advantage. Having to negotiate from the need to have a deal done is quite different from take it or leave it. Trump's style is to negotiate from the take it or leave it position of strength because his favorite tactic, apparently, is to just badger.

Contrary to his supporter's opinions, he's not the best businessman out there.

Exactly WHAT did trump mean when he said this...?

There's really no way around that statement.

But his foil here is not Jamie Dimon, or Bloomberg, or Ichan. It is Pelosi, and it is Chucky Schumer.

You think $5B is an unreasonable ask? Think about that. It is a budgetary rounding error. How the hell does one justify refusal to spend a rounding error on one of the POTUS's chief points of emphasis and most important programs. There is no way to justify that. None!

It is such a small financial ask on Trump's part that there really is no way to spin the shutdown positively for the Dems.

He never had the chance. Congress never put a bill on his desk. No bill, no opportunity to veto. No opportunity to veto, no opportunity to shutdown government. This is a Democrat/Congressional shutdown.

I still give him the credit for "starting the conversation" and understanding the "intersectionality" of the situation and making it a "teaching moment" and all. The dems should support this.

Haven't seen it yet but based on what I've read you're not being truthful. Either way, I thought it was amusing.

I disagree. Most people aren’t affected by a shhhhhhut down! Most of us could go on forever and it would make zero difference in our lives. Of course, this may change with time but this is a partial shhhhhhut down and nobody gives a frick.

I want him to stand his ground. He has already caved/compromised enough. The ball us in the Democrats’ court. They own what happens next. Remember: President Trump has nothing to lose. He can resign tomorrow and go buy an island somewhere. He isn’t obligated to any lobbyists or special interests. He is in it to win it.

The real power controls the dissemination of information. We now have 24-hour news programming to distract you from what's really going on in the world.
