I have no idea what that has to do with my post, which pointed out Pelosi had broken trump, to the point he is too scared to go up against her to build his wall.

Not more than one single dollar for the wall should be her position. Now we have come from the premise it is immoral to simply how to fund it. That is a big change, the money can be found now that the "immoral" hurdle has been tossed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The democrat position has been to fund border security, and prevent trump building an ineffective wall that he has no mandate for. Nonetheless, that has nothing to do with my post. I didn’t say she won, I said she broke trump. Because she has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand the democrat position that there has to be border security, don’t particularly care about any one individuals personal perspective or statements. As a party they have a policy, rather than rational more trump’s imbecilic belief in a wall/fence/slats (whatever he is calling it today). trump promised a wall the tax payer would not have to fund. That was a lie. That is why I have a problem with his behaviour, which caused the shutdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More so I respect the fact they campaigned on a policy they are now promoting. Unlike trump who promised a wall the tax payer would not have to fund. That was a lie. You care when Trump lies but are unable to concede to the simple fact that Pelosi lied. I really don't care but it is interesting to see that you can't just acknowledge that and move on. Anyway the wall has a green light to go forward is the larger point. That Pelosi isn't an honest person isn't the real news. Now however funding is achieved the wall can be built and that wasn't the case before. So it could be said Pelosi won a battle here but her concession will ultimately lead to the wall being built and she will lose the war. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She also vows not to give more than a dollar and no wall will ever be built. She will have to take the word moral out of her political vocabulary in the future.

RickTik Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Don't fall for media propaganda. You see, they all got what they wanted. While the public's attention was diverted to some "wall", a coup de'tat was successfully initiated in Venezuela. Trump, Pelosi, and Netanyahu are celebrating. They have their eyes on the oil, gold, and other natural resources of Venezuela. Also, the pharmaceutical lobby, the police state network, and the corrupt politicians got to keep their dirty money stream from cannabis persecution going. So who lost on all this? The dumbed-down public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinBoy2 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 This is all just bizzaro land. I lived in San Diego for 20 years and there is a wall. Most of the Southern border is pretty impassable just by geography. Build a 15ft wall, well you get a 16ft ladder. The drug cartels are pretty good at making tunnels to traffic their goods Not to mention that 60% of all illegal immigrants arrive by air, then just overstay their visa ....oh yeah and wasn't Mexico gonna cough up the $5B???

Trump is going to declare a "National Emergency" in an attempt to grab funding for the "Wall". Believe estimated overall cost is around $20billion. trump is a disgrace as clearly incapable to govern in a democratic environment, trump is unfit for the Office of the President of the USA.

There is no money in the bill for a wall. You see a wall being built where no wall is being built and funds for a wall where there are no funds for a wall.

mtls2005 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Ted Cruz suggests that El Chappo will pay for the wall, somehow.

Credo Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Sadly, this IS about a WALL. It IS NOT about border security. There are much more effective and less expensive means of protecting the border: Fiber-optic cables could secure the border instead Amid the cacophony, one lawmaker has tried fruitlessly to divert attention away from the wall, and toward fiber-optic technology that could pinpoint with precision where border intrusions occur, determine what exactly is coming across, and relay the information to Border Patrol agents in realtime. "I would love to lay a fiber-optic cable from sea to shining sea," Rep. Will Hurd, a Texas Republican who represents more of the US-Mexico border than anyone in Congress, told The New York Times' "The Daily" podcast in January. https://www.businessinsider.com/fiber-optic-sensing-technology-vs-border-wall-2019-2?utm_content=buffer6703d&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer&fbclid=IwAR1hHb5NJT9-2AU4_U7MJDcMrJzb7TDk3UFPWZzrP_pGQOhBTrGsT2lXxBE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
