    Of course Trump wins again and so do the American people. Some folks are just figuring this out. Others, like the AOC crowd, will never figure it out.

    Congress and its open borders crowd would have been better off just giving 5.7 billion. Instead Trump gets 8 plus billion for the wall and several other billion for other means of securing the border.

    LOL! Trump wins again!

    No wall, just fencing over small portion of border, which is easily navigated around, over and under. They gave him this to shut the big baby up. Upending the lives of hundreds of thousands of workers all for a vanity project. Even his own party is embarrassed but now they're stuck with him.

    The biggest lie of all was Mexico paying for it. LOL, suckers.

    Obama already did when he legalized the Dreamers. Before he said he would have to be a king to do that.

    Lol! Trump didn’t get his border money, his “emergency” declaration will be tied up in court for a year, and he continues to get owned by Nancy Pelosi (of all people), and doombug counts it as a “win.”

    Great! If Trump keeps “winning” like this I think we’re going to be okay. What a joke.

    I swear if Trump fell down a flight of stairs and declared it was a victory for him the Trumpkins would believe him

    He knew exactly who he was playing and how to do it even before he descended down the escalator

    Trump's national emergency declaration will be overturned by Congress, the courts, and the American people.

    And then a democratic president will use this precedent to declare gun violence, climate change, and access to healthcare national emergencies.

    That all it took to make you abandon you believe system.
    Sorta like when Obama said maybe we should talk to North Korea and the right collectively called him feckless but when Trump made the suggestion.....wait for it......wait for it.....keep waiting ....It's almost here......he's ****ing brilliant......yeah, your better...make him fail.

    Exactly.

    At this point, the propensity to defend anything that Trump does is so deep, if Trump burned their houses down they would come to PF and start a thread about "Winning".

    The narrative of the link in OP is completely ludicrous.

    Trump caved. Trump got owned. Trump LOST. Period.:salute:

    Oh my.....the TDS crowd in with the full effect and already playing to each other before the page can turn. Imagine that.



    The Democrats' total capitulation on the border.....

    [​IMG]

    Republican and Democratic lawmakers last night reportedly came to an agreement on border enforcement funding to avert another government shutdown before the Friday deadline. Yet after all this drama, it's unclear if Democrats accomplished much beyond virtue signaling to their base. If anything, they may have given Trump a green light to forge ahead with his draconian interior enforcement agenda without any meaningful oversight of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

    Details of the deal are still trickling in but it seems clear that after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi pledged not to give Trump even a "dollar" for his wall, Democrats agreed to hand him $1.375 billion to build a 55-mile long barrier in the Rio Grande Valley. They're trying to spin this as mere "pedestrian fencing." Trump, who is never shy of staring a gift horse in the mouth, is saying it’s not enough. But it's pretty clear that Democrats gave in.

    In addition, they agreed to hand the Department of Homeland Security an additional $1.7 billion for border security, including technology at ports of entry, more officers and, as an afterthought, some humanitarian aid......snip~

    Oh your leftist sources are propaganda. LMAO.

    Here is another of your kind.

    Democrats capitulate to Trump, agree to wall funding

    By Eric London
    12 February 2019

    Just 15 minutes before Donald Trump was scheduled to address a rally in the Texas border town of El Paso, Senate leaders announced that the Democrats and Republicans had reached a deal to avert another government shutdown, set to begin on at 12:01 a.m. Saturday.
    The agreement is a complete capitulation by the Democratic Party to Trump’s fascistic agenda. According to initial news reports, it includes $1.4 billion in funding for a steel wall and no lowering of the cap on the total number of immigrants who can be detained on any given night.....snip~

    Sometimes you have to listen to the words. It was said several times that he would not get a single dollar for his WALL and he didn't. He can not use any of the money for constructing a wall, not one dollar. 55 miles of barrier is not what trump was looking for but that's what he got. I don't know this but the U.S. probably does at least that much every year just in maintenance and upgrading.

    The agreement is a complete capitulation by the Democratic Party to Trump’s fascistic agenda.....snip~

    an

    Wake up and join reality Andy. The Week and WSWS are leftists sources. But thanks for validating you don't know anything about sources.

    Your Demos caved. Your Demos got owned. Your Demos lost. That's why they are filing lawsuits against Trump's Emergency Declaration.

    And now Trump will get 8 Billion on top of 1.375 billion your Demos gave up. While not getting nothing in return. [​IMG]


    Oh just an FYI Andy.....if your Demos had won. They wouldn't be filing any Lawsuits nor conducting an Investigation into Trump declaring an Emergency. [​IMG]
