Economy The [Wall / Government Shutdown] Megathread

[Squarechoke]

I agree with everything he's doing involving the border wall. WE NEED TO SECURE OUR BORDERS!!!

End of discussion!

Typing like that isn't going to make you sound more rational, and I wasn't making any arguments about the wall to begin with.

 

[Throttlehead]

Uuuuh . . .

I see your video and raise you 2 more.

Do you agree with him and his administration doing nothing regarding:

• Securing commercial seaports
• Securing all points of entry
• VISA overstays
• Prosecution of businesses who employ illegal workers

????????????????????????????????????????????

Democrats make it hard for Trump to get stuff done but this thread is about the border WALL that MUST GET BUILT!

USA State run Fox trying to mimic State run Russian channel.

He had all 3 branches of Government since elected, the wall wasn't important till Limbaugh told him it was. Democrats could block nothing in the first 2 years, his own people did.

@Hit-N-Run started another thread about Trump sticking it to farmers with the shut down.
My question is how so and how much is it costing farmers? And I suppose the size of affected farms, are they 300 acres or 3000 or bigger and who is seeing the most damage from it?
Without knowing these factors it's difficult to determine if it's really an issue or not.

I don't have that level of detail. I look at it like this. They needed a $12 billion bail out. The auto industry bailout was around $80 billion. So they are either getting fucker or getting rich.

The Trump shutdown is dicking them good. There's no one there to process farmer claims.

 

[Hit-N-Run]

The republicans who controlled every branch of government for 2 years (yeah you remember those days when every trumpanzee and Russian bot would say how much “they’re winning”) didn’t pass a wall budget, and the minute the dems win the house the garbage president blamed them for not having a wall.

Only the most low level deplorables still fall for this horse shit.

You're speaking logic and reason. Those two things don't go over well with trumpets.

That gong-show was Political Eye-Candy for Trump.

Acosta just gave him more ammo to use in favor of the Barrier. Thanks, Jim. <Lmaoo>

 

[shockaholic12]

Trump fumbled that address. Might have been his last chance. If he had laid out details and a budget he might have picked up some momentum, but instead he used the airtime to respond to specific politicians who had called him out. Seemed too political and didn't help the issue seem practical.

How bout that agent saying they detained two Pakistanis crossing the border yesterday

That's kinda spooky

SHHH! Don't go putting out FACTS here.

The Liberals hate that.

I swear I wouldn't have believed it if a politician said it

The scariest part about it is the agent said it happened all the time.

What media is reporting that dudes from the ME are crossing our border frequently? The Media really is shameful when it comes to this.

 

[Diamond Jim]

The fuck is he talking about? Drugs I’m assuming.

 

[grizzard2bid]

They should build the wall and leave California and Florida on the other side

Florida gets bad press due to the headlines, but it's a purple state that actually has a fairly balanced electorate and doesn't nearly suffer from as much illegal immigration.

You dumb shit, 2 Pakistanis crossed the border....ooohhh noooo
Yes its a fact, and?

You had a hard time figuring that out? He's been saying it non stop the last 2 days

You know what's shameful, gaslighting on a border in the south when 6 (SIX) people on watch lists tried to cross the southern border while 41 came across the Canadian border and....crickets. Which do you think is more serious risk, 6 or 41?

The agent said just yesterday. He said they also apprehended people from India, Indonesia and a whole bunch of other weird places for southern border hoppers

He also said it happens all the time but that was just yesterday(one day)
