Nancy Pelosi jokes she will give Trump $1 for the Wall.

If it would only save one life it would be worth it!
 
Fair enough. If you wanted a truly secure border, do you have any suggestions on how you might handle the it? Personally, I think a heavy investment in drones, increased personnel and probably a geo-sync sat or two. Bundle that with much more strict enforcement of VISA's and strict adherence to deportation for felony criminal activity. I tend to agree that there are tech answers to achieve the goal.

Sounds like the scene from the last Matrix movie where Neo is trying to get to the Machine City...
 
how anyone takes Nancy Pelosi serious is beyond me

just look at her. no really
Maybe part of your problem in judging people is that you do so by appearance?
Also have you looked at trump lately or is his ball sack in your way? I mean they probably look about the same but...
<{vega}>

Dont worry Nancy mexico will pay for the wall you can keep your 1$ and buy a beer to drink with your friend Elizabeth
 
She can fuck off.

Trump knows if he gives in its over for him.

Politically it would be better for him to shut the government down for a year then give in.

A year?

A lot of veterans work for the Fed....

How long will people work for free before they just leave government jobs including Federal LEOs?

The longest shutdown was 21 days....

That would kill him in a general and most likely weaken him in a primary when it's pointed out over and over again that he had the funding last year (and it was $25B vs $5B) but mixed the deal because Steve Miller didn't like it.

It will look just as bad on the democrates as it drags out.

Once the shit gets really bad we will see if they give Trump something.

It Trump backs down he will be done with anyone that had any support for him at all.

Sure he can give a little on the amount but the cyrpt keeper says not a dollar.

So we will see.

Again Trump had 5 times the money he's asking for bow and gave it away.

The GOP already passed legislation to end the shutdown which Trumo vetoed

He bragged about shutting down the government.

This is his baby and it will be reflected that way.

This kills him in the general election and eventually it hurts him with Non Stephen Miller GOP types.
 
If it would only save one life it would be worth it!

hey and well met, Stoic1,

my favorite thing about this line of reasoning, is how selectively its applied.

i'd love to hear someone from the right - just once - say something like, "we should lower our carbon emissions, if it would save one life, it would be worth it!"

or, "we should outlaw handguns, if it would save one life, it would be worth it!"

or, how about "we should increase funding for school meals in low income neighborhoods, IF IT WOULD SAVE ONE LIFE, IT WOULD BE WORTH IT!" (for the children!)

or, "we should increase Federal support for Planned Parenthood centers, if it would save one life, it would be worth it!"

or, "we should drag CIgna and Blue Cross Blue Shield out into the desert and set them on fire, and then have universal healthcare, if it would save one life, it would be worth it!"

etc

etc

hi oldshadow, good to see you again,

i get that, but,

a) i disagree. as long as Mr. Trump puts forth an energetic effort on Twitter, i think he can shape the result in whatever manner he pleases. don't underestimate him or his core constituency. i think he's ill qualified to be POTUS and has a lack of intellectual curiosity regarding policy, but he's a cagey, media savvy fellow. he's smart, in his own, weird way.

b) regarded the bolded. let's say you are right. even if you are, isn't that a bizarre way to conduct government? to have policy based on whether it will be "over for him" or not? doesn't that sound sort of chickenshit, and lacking in conviction for you?

i mean, the Democrats (Mrs. Pelosi deserves a great deal of credit here) bullied their caucus into approving the Affordable Care Act. not all the members were enthralled with the bill, but they stuck to their guns and did what they felt was the just thing to do, consequence be damned.

the consequence, of course, is the Democrats got obliterated in the midterms, lol. it was "over for them" for sure.

but the law still stands.

Wait. I thought Mexico was paying for this boondoggle?
 
But then she rescinds even that generous $1 !!

-

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday joked that she might pay a dollar for President Trump's proposed border wall as part of ongoing negotiations over government spending.

She was asked whether there’s any scenario under which Democrats would accept “even a dollar” for new construction of Trump’s border wall.

“A dollar? A dollar? Yeah, one dollar,” Pelosi told a group of reporters just off of the House floor.

She later seemed to rescind even that offer.

“We’re not doing a wall. Does anybody have any doubt about that? We are not doing a wall. So that’s that,” she said.

Just like the NFL lawsuit. Don't think she meant to be that clever but still funny.
 
The BBC described Pelosi as , "The most powerful woman in American politics". That's like saying you're the bravest soldier in the Italian army<45><Lmaoo>
 
If you're white it should.

I get a kick out of white folks that on one hand constantly argue racism isn't a real thing, playing the race card is cop out, etc.

Then on the other hand readily admit they have real fear of becoming a minority in America. Why would that be a bad thing my friends, are minorities treated poorly around here or something?
