"It's a spectacle, and candidly, it's juvenile," Corker said. "The whole thing is juvenile."

    So said Sen. Bob Corker this morning on CNN.

    Trump has already lost the political fight, and driven a further wedge between himself and Mitch McConnell.

    This can't serve any other purpose other then to feed Trump's idiotic obsession with creating chaos.

    "
    ennessee GOP Sen. Bob Corker said on Sunday that President Donald Trump pushed the government into partial shutdown as an act of political posturing.

    "This is a made-up fight, so the President can look like he's fighting, but even if he wins, our borders are going to be insecure," Corker said on CNN's "State of the Union."
    Corker's comments came as the partial government shutdown went into its second day, following Congress and Trump failing to come to a funding agreement on Friday. The Senate adjourned on Saturday without an agreement, meaning the shutdown would likely continue past Christmas.
    Corker, a retiring senator and frequent Trump critic, said the dispute over border security and Trump's proposed border wall was "a purposefully contrived fight" and argued the fight was small in scope compared to a proposed deal earlier this year ahead of a January government shutdown that would have combined greater money at the border along with protection for "Dreamers."

    Really... Trump building the wall became synonymous to Trump building a Trump tower in Moscow, and not a national border security improvement. Understandable why Libs do not want it, though - it is 100% effective in denying future Democrat voters to getting to USA illegally.

    Exactly

    No wall means more illegal aliens including criminals in our country

    Something that appeals to trump haters

    Hmm.. then why don't the majority of Americans want it??

    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/cbs-news-poll-americans-dont-support-building-the-wall/

    I can think of better things Trump can provide the American people this Christmas season.... many many things...

    Trump getting the American people a wall is akin to your grandma buying you tighty whities for Christmas... Grandma thinks you need them, but you don't want them

    Bob corker is nothing but a Democrat that runs as a Republican to trick old people. When he gets to Washington he uses his position to back stab republicans whenever possible and push the Democrat agenda.

    Democrats will come up with any excuse to prevent a physical barrier from being put on our border. They know that anyone and everyone from anywhere can come here step foot on American soil and then potentially become a Democrat.

    Democrats try to offer goodies to illegal immigrants for their journey like free health care and welfare. If they make it and get to stay it's like winning the lottery

    I have not had a chance ask every citizen who is a qualified voter

    So I cannot confirm your assumption

    But trump won the 2016 election based on the need to build a wall

    So I’ll go with that

    Well, that answers that... polls about the wall in America don't use the Electoral College....

    My money says that the majority of americans, at least 51 percent want a wall and greater immigration control. I no longer trust polls. They showed a bias in 2016 rendering them moot when it came to the presidential election. How can you trust the same people? Their way of polling is flawed.

    The Democrat Party and the Main Stream media collude together to produce polls that produce results that fit their narratives. We learn this from Wiki. The Hillary Clinton campaign literally thought Texas was in play so they had to send resources there instead of fighting it out and battleground States where there pull said they were going to win in a landslide.

    Don't expect democrats to understand. They are democratic socialist just like Hitler and a sound like Hitler when they talk about white people.

    If you really want to see this in action just take a post where they rant about white people and replace white people with Jews.

    The polling is suspect

    We dont know who they polled or what questions were asked

    But I dont think most citizens want to allow millions poor people to migrate to America

    Hatred consumes people and turns them into exactly what they hate. If and when they come to power again they will commit atrocities far worse than the world has ever seen. History repeats itself.

    I would like to see some stats beginning in the 1950s on the estimated number of illegal aliens and carried forward to 2017.

    It isn't.

    It's a monument to bigotry, fear and weakness. All the things Trumpism stands for.

    Which is why it is incumbent on Americans to see that it never gets built.

    There is a thread where they make a list of people who will not be forgiven. Classic facist.

    If any of this is really true, why post and just not sit back and enjoy the Christmas season?
    BTW, I love the chaos Trump causes the lefties.
