    ...are you really so myopic as to think that malnourished children is something that does not happen without intentional decisions by their parents?

    False. "Shithole" is Trump's term of diplomatic statesmanship, and rendering it distinctive does not concern your censors.

    Trump's rhetoric aside, the Democratically-controlled House is persisting in treating Trump's wall that he repeatedly promised Mexico would pay for and that most Americans do not want in the same way that the Republican-controlled House had for two years.

    Sure they will, because they know that liberals in this country will afford them a standard lifestyle through benefits and welfare. Can't have them dying on the streets.

    You wish to deprive asylum seekers safety.
    If you stay home, you can't get hurt by a scary brown person.
    Stay home to hide from brown people that scare you.
    I have to pay taxes on BS I don't agree with either. But we live in America, no choice.
    Stay home when the scary brown people drive.
    You have no idea how far I have to drive on a daily basis, quit acting like you have a clue.

    "Well, that was the shortest, most easily resolved national emergency in U.S. history. Twelve hours ago, the president was preparing to set aside the regular process of law. By 9 p.m. eastern time? Not so much.

    Perhaps somebody pointed out that 15-year civil-engineering projects do not look very convincingly like emergency measures. “My house is burning! Time to begin the process of calling for design proposals for a new fire station.”

    Thats a new question

    And I suspect you have a hundred more after that

    My suggestion is to fine employers who KNOWINGLY hire illegal aliens

    And at the same time arrest and deport the illegal along with their entire family

    We could even have a bounty paid for information leading to foreigners working illegally

    And the bounty will be paid for by illegal alien and the employer

    What's an official poll in your world??

    Oh... let's go to Rasmussen...

    http://www.rasmussenreports.com/pub...all_on_the_rise_again_but_not_at_govt_expense

    Before the shutdown, it was 48% against, 46% pro.... And when you account for the general Rasmussen skew, I'd probably have to put that at 52/42 in real world numbers...

    If you cannot get 50% pro wall on Rasmussen, I feel very safe in saying it's an unpopular concept..

    Oh would you like the percentages of the toothless that vote for the Democrats? It's something like 65%.

    Interesting book you should get on tape someday.... Called "1984" by a man named George Orwell... It's a nightmare scenario to many, but it sounds like it would be right up your alley...

    You are for an open border and against deporting illegal aliens

    Which is a recipe for the downfall of America

    That was a manufactured outrage of the week. I don't know when the legal framework for that was established, but it certainly predates Trump.

    And the 2018 poll overwhelmingly demonstrated that trump's presidency and his wall are **** for the majority of Americans.

    There were a total of six non-citizens with suspected links to terrorists encountered in between ports of entry along the Southern Border in FY 2018. Granted, that is an "increase" over 2016 when zero came across, but it is no where near the 41 which came across from the Northern Border in 2018.

    Trump does not want a wall. He wants you to think that he wants a wall.

    Sort of like "the wall" is?

    What "legal framework"? You mean the decision by the Trump Administration to misinterpret existing regulations to separate families and blame Obama for that misinterpretation?

    I think he's convinced himself that he needs to have it built.

    I am not so sure. A leader who really thinks he needs to do something must demonstrate that need by being willing to sacrifice even more.

    What is Trump willing to sacrifice in order to get his wall?
