the other fairly common idea was that he'd be happy to be a figurehead president who would just hang out with celebrities and do all the ceremonial stuff but would let the people he appoints do all the real work. I wish.

Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

If I had to pick a side in this issue, I’d side with Trump. The Dems arguments are pretty lame given the low cost being asked for ($5 billion?) and the perception it gives that they are for illegal immigration. The argument that a wall has an impact on legal immigration and asylum seekers seems unfounded. Those people have to enter at checkpoints anyway so why would a wall deter them?
Again, the wall is a dumb idea but I’m not sure it’s a hill the Dems want to die on."Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

Originally posted by Uncle Ted View PostThey have the Dems in the house to impeach him.... of course, then he might be acquitted by the Senate but ("shhhhh") don't tell them that.
But if Trump loves reality TV he's really going to love all the live hearings in the House that are going to start soon.Last edited by BlueK; 01-09-2019, 01:44 PM.

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

Originally posted by Commando View PostThey don't, actually. They need to apply for asylum within a year of entering the U.S., but entry with inspection at a point of entry is not a requirement.
Originally posted by BlueK View PostThey have the House, therefore they should be able to get something in return.
Bottom line is that although the wall is a dumb idea, a lot of Americans want one and a majority of Americans are for strong border patrol and against illegal immigration."Discipleship is not a spectator sport.
