One way to do it, as Ron Paul has stated many times, is to stop the economic incentives for illegal immigration. Why hasn't any dem suggested that instead of a wall?

interesting article. We're in this situation because there aren't enough votes in the legislative branch for Trump to get what he wants. And he wants it because it's what his core 35% base and their favorite radio show hosts want. Is it really worth creating a public safety issue over?

Surely they can figure out how to route planes around and stuff.
As for the TSA, that is all just a big security theater to make us feel safer.Last edited by Uncle Ted; 01-07-2019, 10:52 PM."If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

Originally posted by wapiti View PostWhy is it Trump that has to budge? It's clear that he wants $5B for the wall and is willing to agree to some pretty big dem priorities to get it. 6 months ago if you had asked the dems for $5B for irrelevant military spending in exchange for DACA, they'd have signed on in a heartbeat. But because its an irrelevant wall, they won't. Both sides are being stubborn. If the dems really cared about some of their pent-up priorities, they've got great opportunity with a small price to pay ($5B wasted on a wall).
Right now there are a dozen bills passed this week by the House to reopen some or at least parts of the government on McConnell's desk which could pass the Senate, but he won't allow them to come to a vote. He says it's because Trump would veto. The thing is, there are some of these which would even have the votes to override. And a Senate actually doing its job and acting like a co-equal branch of the government instead of being subservient to the President would still pass the law and let the President do that if he wants. McConnell won't do it probably because he's worried that in a state like Kentucky he would be primaried. The Senate math doesn't work well for Republicans in 2020 anyway, so McConnell's in a tough spot either way. I think it's highly unlikely he's still majority leader after the next election either. But right now that is what he is trying to protect.Last edited by BlueK; 01-08-2019, 09:41 AM.

Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View PostIt is a dumb pissing contest with idiots on both sides. Pelosi claimed that building a wall is morally wrong. Really? We already have 700 miles of border wall. Is she going to suggest we tear it down?

So it is morally wrong to try to stop these people?
In other news it seems that Mexico is actually going to build the wall (on their southern border)....
https://www.cnsnews.com/news/article...ntrys-southern
A day before President Trump gives a prime time Oval Office address on “the humanitarian and national security crisis” on the Southwest border, Mexico’s interior minister outlined plans to strengthen her own country’s porous southern border, where hundreds of illegal crossing points have been identified."If there is one thing I am, it's always right." -Ted Nugent.

Originally posted by PaloAltoCougar View PostI may tune into tonight's speech and the Dems' rebuttal to see if Trump persists in his declaration of "facts" about this nonexistent crisis--a problem is rarely a crisis. I'm certain Pelosi/Schumer (and I'm no fan of theirs) are prepared to refute pretty much all of the bogus stats Trump has been reciting (to his credit, he has made the term "trumped up" more meaningful). I'm interested to see if his staff prepares him with, and forces him to use, a more accurate portrayal of the situation.
This article shows the bold faced lies put out by the Dump team concerning those numbers if anyone feels a need to reconfirm that they should not believe anything put out by the White House.
