    IMHO, the real problem is that there is too much money being made by certain industries and they are paying off enough contributing enough money to both key Democrats and Republicans that the problem isn't being solved. "The Wall" is just red meat for the clueless and a means to make money off the taxpayers. Sad.
    I'm not buying that--we need legal immigrants and should follow the law (or change it) for illegals. We need to do whatever is necessary to follow the law. Cost is really irrelevant to me. A lot of people who support the wall aren't "clueless".

    We need the wall. Trump has to get more than 1.3 billion or not run again. I don't know how much more but 2 billion would be the minimum DACA had better not be in it unless there's 25 billion.
    Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation
    Pick your enemies carefully.

    Well first off, didn't you throw him under the bus when he caved on the shutdown? At least I've been consistent. I don't loathe Trump, but he scares me. He's impulsive. He thinks everyone loves and respects him, especially on the world front. He's alienated many long time friends. We'd soon find out if we got our *** in the wringer and needed old friends to give us a helping hand. His circle of buddies wouldn't be on my list. At least they all share a common trait; cutthroat.

    I give him credit, where credit is due. He's a tough negotiator, often winning, but embellishes every victory which lends to general impression that he's a liar and his word can't be trusted. My Republican friends sure can't forget the barbecue we celebrated with the infamous line, "You can keep your insurance!" "By God, the President's a liar!" "Hang him!" "No!" "Hang em' both!!!" "Better yet, get a hold of the Ruskies' and see if they can help."

    He's smart, but obviously not educated. Somewhere along the line he lost the urge to learn and that's a problem when you're the most powerful ruler on the planet. He goes through people like they're candy. So yea, despite the economy, which doesn't seem to have been a game changer for the average Joe, he scares me. I hope for the country, I'm dead wrong. So that means, I'm pulling for the President.

    Still, what?
    Is that Hobbit lingo?

    In my book, they (the demos) all look like walls. Didn't that manage to breach three or four of them? They should decide soon so that I can get to building ladders. At this point, I'm not certain if I should build 32' or twenty footers.

    Yes, because everyone will be able to carry 32' ladders across the desert.

    Well, if you mean by the AMC agreement, then Mexico pays a third, we pick up a third and so do the Canadians. Bet they're thrilled!
