So Mexico's not paying?
Tell congress (Ryan) to approve Wilber Ross' letter of intent to renegotiate NAFTA and you better fricking believe Mexico will pay for it.
PAUL RYAN IS PROTECTING MEXICO!

Let's ask them Texans if they want that wall.

The god damn wall will be built and through tariffs
A tariff will only hurt us as consumers. Mexico is our 3 largest trading partner. It would be stupid to basically eliminate them as an option. Why you gotta be so Bernie Sanders and hate the free market???

I never thought they would. But Trump promised it...And a promise is a promise. We gotta hold your Yankee overlord accountable don't you think??? We can't have him get cocky just like Obama did (since it seems that this is the bar Trump fans on this board have decided to compare him to).

Right. Then why do you support Ryan's BAT?

If Trump failing is what makes you happy, then good for you.
And things I disagree with, like his trade policies, specifically tarrifs, I hope fail. It's not amusing though.

I wish they would all focus on somehow lowering taxes, not finding new taxes to pay for things.

Well you would hope the leading Republican congressmen would get out of their own way and actually accomplish something. They are completely falling on their face. They have no argument now. They have a President ready to get stuff done for their constituents and they aren't getting anything done. Ryan is a failure.
Many of these leaders are refusing to work with a Republican leader who actually defeated the democratic machine to give them the abiliy to do something. It seems as we all were perfectly aware of the Republican party is full of a bunch of corrupt politicians with only their personal greedy interest in mind.

No, actually it's nothing like that.

That would require Democrats coming to the table. Without Democrats the senate can only pass tax measures that are budget neutral over ten years as scored by the CBO (who has never been right) or tax measures with an expiration date requiring congressional renewal through the reconciliation process (with a simple senate majority).

Good for you...breaking it all down. Even got a gay arse rotflmao in there. The conspiracy theories are from all the fricks that showed back up after the inauguration, when their 8 year embarrassment left town...spewing all kinds of stupid shite with links to stupid shite articles. Not going to argue about it because I really don't give that much of a frick as you seem to...it's a waste of time and nothing would change.

Regardless, the wall increases spending, and therefore increases that little thing people used to care about at least: the debt.
So arguing that just getting something "done" is of utmost importance, while ignoring the logistical and financial consequences of that, is eerily similar to the Democrats reasoning.
Frankly, unless getting something done results in less government, I personally think not getting it done is preferable and actually good governance by comparison.

Maybe he's for the Wall of Mexico pays for it, which was the promise, by the way.
Why aren't you mad at Trump for promising a hundred times that Mexico would pay for the Wall and then completely failing at fulfilling that promise? Then, he wants the American tax payer to pay for it. Why doesn't that upset you?
"We're going to build a wall ... and Mexico's gonna pay for it!"
Remember that? Every. Single. Trump. Rally.
Now, you blame Ryan?

It's the Uniparty. There are not many differences between Republican and Democrats especially when it comes to Obamacare, amnesty and spending...mostly spending. They all love spending. Big spending. Spend. Spend. Spend and spend some more.

WE HAVEN'T STARTED CONSTRUCTION ON THE WALL AND TRUMP HAS ALREADY BEEN IN FOR THREE MONTHS!!!
This MUST mean that Trump is a TOTAL FAILURE!!!
Goddamn, if I had it to do over again I would have voted for Hillary!
And I for sure wish we had Merrick Garland on SCOTUS, because life is so much less scary with the federal government telling me what to do!!
Thanks for setting me straight baw!
