    It's statements like this which destroy your credibility. What about record low unemployment among blacks? Or are you going to claim those are Trump's core base? Consumer confidence ---- all Trump's base? Small business optimism and growth ---- all Trump's base? Initiatives for women ---- all Trump's base? Prison reform ---- rofl, Trump's base? The military ---- all Trump's base? The young people who didn't like paying the penalty for not having Obamacare ---- Trump's base? The business previously being strangled by over-regulation ---- all Trump's base?

    If you want to attack Trump, you're going to have to try a LOT harder.

    Yes McConnell thought how childish and ignorant Demos are. He knew that when the Demos only offered another 75 mil for the wall. Knew they were going petty. Knew they put their party before the country. Their resistance. Aka sedition.

    Then heard how they wanted to reduce beds in detention centers making illegal children sleep on floor.

    Then heard Pelosi out before the cameras. Then all those Demos saying they support AOC.

    So McConnell knows exactly what the Demos are about.

    Very True.

    Just more PROOF (of what Everybody Has Known all along) that Trump is an UNPREPARED IMBECILE (who never should've been elected in the first place).

    Donald Trump.:roflol:

    Wow just wow. Knowing the origins and routes of drug trade is, unfortunately, not enough to stop it. Anyway, I see I'm wasting my time. After all you know the REAL truth. Who needs analysis and thought and stuff when you simply know things.

    Nah. Your narrow minded views and selective outrage are just easy to counter with facts and factual arguments. Not everyone destroying your theories and views is a devote worshiper of a politician.

    I’ve probably argued against you on here before (I’m no leftist) but I’m for less government at all times when Obama used executive orders and now with this national emergency. I am against this(not the wall per say but the handling of this)

    Again, playing Gotcha is fun, but again he probably has the authority to do what he's planning and he'll probably prevail in the courts.

    As I pointed out in another post, it appears the obstacles in front of him are primarily political. Probably the second biggest obstacle is something you mentioned earlier and that's moving suits and perhaps injunctions through the courts and presumably on to the SCOTUS. If Trump wants to "do it much faster" he has to get those cases fast-tracked through the judiciary. Everybody knows that's not going to happen in terms of days - best case scenario would be weeks and months but I wouldn't be surprised to see some cases take years.

    But it offers a lot of support for the cartels and wannabe undocumented Democrats.

    Prove it. Criticize trump for one decision or statement that he has made in the last three months.

    This was his statement during his announcement where he declared a national emergency. National Emergencies are not optional.

    But if "do not need to do this," then you are saying that your national emergency declaration is not necessary. And thus, there is no national emergency.

    And it goes directly against the legal authority that he claims to have in this circumstance.

    The President of the United States says there is one and declared it to be so. So there is one. He has the power to do so.

    Anything else?

    Please tell how the same logic can't be used to push money to programs that fight climate change? The latitude granted to presidents in times of emergency is terrifying if misused. This is a precedent that any true patriot would not like to see set.

    What....you got corn cobs between your ears? How do "experts" do these accurate analysis that you declare and know exactly how the drugs get through, while at the same time we employ thousand of enforcement "experts" that cannot confront and stop these drug imports? You talk like a typical highly indoctrinated bureaucrat. You use the term "experts" as if it is "case solved". You are a waste of anyones' time as are all bureaucrats!

    This circular gem is cute. I'm afraid if you look up the definition of emergency you won't find the opinion of the POTUS mentioned anywhere.

    President declared it an National Emergency, therefore, we have another one on record.

    Cute or not, it's a fact. :)

    Exactly, especially a person against less government. I’ve spent my time on here slamming Dems but I’m not for this seems like a 1 step forward 5 steps back kinda thing

    I wanted to make it easy for you. I could limit the timeline to the last week if you wanted to make it a little harder?

    A "fact" that is about to get removed by Congress, the Courts, and the American people. A "fact" that will be used by future Democratic presidents to finally address the real climate change, gun violence, and healthcare crisis that factually affects millions of Americans.

    Right! How could they possibly know all that stuff? Heck, the' but a bunch 'o tomfoolers. The whole lot o' em.

    I'm sure they don't have a team of highly trained scientists, researchers, special agents (including informants), and billions of our tax dollars at their disposal. Nah, just a bunch of stooopidly indoctrinated bureaucrats.
    But you - you know the truth. Good on ya man!
