Trump’s a brat. “The budget I was supposed to sign? I forgot it.”
“Ministers have to be confirmed? Oh, I didn’t have time to do that.”
“Vegetables? Let’s just go to McDonald’s.”

If you are educated and rational, the wall doesn't make you feel safer.
We need policies that actually work instead of policies that make Tiny's base "feel" better.
And no, Tiny will not get the wall built. It will never happen. He has had two years with Republican house and senate. Nothing has been built. Now he lost the house. It still won't be built. Forget your pie in the sky schemes. It won't happen.
Yeah, it’s more likely we’ll free the border prisoners and “secure” Trump.
That sounds pretty plausible...and very legal. Or not.

This shutdown is Republicans refusing to sign off on funding unless the the agreed upon budget is altered.
Both instances are Republicans holding up government funding as blackmail because they didn’t get their way during the normal legislative process.
CORRECT! There is no defense for the incompetent Trump at this point. He does not listen to any of his advisers or fellow elected Republicans. He ONLY listens to conservative media outlets who push the most radical conservative views or his own crazy mind.
His criminality is first and foremost, but at this point, if he were NOT a criminal, I would now start to get concerned about him just due to his incredible incompetence, his inability to lead, his refusal to read or study any issue, and his refusal to take advice from advisers.
He has greatly damaged the legitimacy of any Republican who continues to stand with him as his criminality, serial lying, and incompetence is not equaled by any former US President ever. At least Nixon was competent...he was just a criminal, a liar, and a drunk. Even Nixon though didn't rise to the level of lying that Trump engages in.

Suck on that libtards
He is a failed businessman. Regarding "the wall"...
1) He promised concrete and rebar (doesn't matter that steel slats might actually be more effective...goes to the point that he knows nothing about absolutely everything).
2) He wanted 2000 miles across the entire southern border, now he's down to 1000 miles...just 300 miles more than what is already there (all prior to his presidency of course).
3) A WALL on the southern border will NOT make anyone with a brain feel safer. People will still overstay visas, come in illegally through legal ports of entry, come in illegally into any of our non-walled borders. You can still climb over and tunnel under walls. Drugs can be delivered and will be delivered through a variety of means, AND illegals actually commit fewer crimes than citizens do.
If you want to get rid of illegal immigration...
A) Raise fines for knowingly or recklessly hiring an illegal worker to $500,000 OR MORE for the first instance.
B) Actually put people in PRISON for hiring an illegal worker for the first instance.
They don't come here for the tractor pulls. Cut off the reason they come here illegally and then only the legal means of entry will remain.
"The Wall" is stupid and ineffective. Maybe we should have people with pots of boiling oil atop the wall too?
A Fox opinion piece on the cost of The Wall--several times the $5bn that so many seem to think would be the total cost, when it actually would only be a down payment:
NOTE that her estimate of ~$25bn for materials is based on a 97% concrete wall; now that DJT is talking about a steel wall, the cost of material would approximately quadruple.
I WAS WRONG. The piece estimated $25bn for materials AND LABOR. Apologies.
However, with a (mostly) steel rather than concrete wall, the total cost of materials alone would approach $100bn. Labor would be additional.
And regarding Flagpole's remark about drugs ("Drugs can be delivered and will be delivered through a variety of means..."), the Fox piece notes this: "According to a 2015 report by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, 95 percent of drugs enter the United States via container ships or other vessels. So in reality, a wall is going to do absolutely nothing to stop drug trafficking."

Yep. Do these window licker Trump supporters actually believe that a drug kingpin will just look at a wall and say, "Well, guess my business is shattered Perhaps I'll open up a store and sell Hummel figurines. "?
The WALL would only be a symbol of keeping brown people out. It won't actually DO that. It won't actually keep drugs out.

The Fox News estimate is bogus. It completely ignore the terrain they need to build, the lack of roads, and housing needs for builders working in remote areas.

Clintonettes are poor baby losers who can't stand defeat and the FACT that there candidate was a corrupt witch along with her husband.
Yeah, her husband gets impeached by the House of Representatives then acquitted when the Senate fell short of the votes (dirty democrats). Years later his wife runs, with a terrible record as a Senator, and YOU WANT TO VOTE HER IN??? Dipsh*ts! Glad you lost bigly 2 years ago;)
