The DNC and their puppets in the MSM can pretend it isn't happening and ignore it until they're blue in the face.

But, the reality is that the Wall is being built. Another promise made and promise kept by President Trump.
Fairly certain at this point we can agree that all politicians are puppets. Very few of them manage to vote their conscience and when they do it's contrived and calculated.

How many times have we seen 3-4 Dems either not vote or vote against their party only because the votes were meaningless? It's a joke.

McCain lost all respect when he sided with the Dems to bust ACA out of spite toward Trump. He was a hero, but also cared more about revenge than the country with his dying vote. Saddened me.

ACA was shoved down our throats even when more than 70% of us said we didn't want it. 9 years later the exchanges are all busted, deductibles skyrocketed, nobody kept their networks and doctors (PERIOD).

I had to pay an extra $1k in taxes last year for not being insured.

It's all a hoax.


At least Trump is following through on his promises. MSM and the Dems are selling snake oil, again!

Just another 1500 miles to go, and he's golden. Pretty much worth the price of a hot dog.

and these Canadian overstays I've encountered at Blaine were mostly retired wealthy Canadian snowbirds staying a little longer than 6 months in their resort in AZ because it's still too damn cold in Canada to return home.

At this pace it will take 100 years to finish.

Besides, they can call it "new", but the truth is that they are building in places where there already was a wall.
Yep - but they'll spin it as new.

And that Mex paid for it through changes in trade. Not really what they proposed during the campaign, but Trump the lying politician he is, has been documented to have told 10,000+ mistruths or lies to the American people.

how do you know these Asians and eastern block countries people that you've encountered in FL are illegal and came here by planes?


also, are Asian people not brown? I guess to leftist progressive Asians are white now. That explains all the affirmative action against Asians in Ivy Leagues

To say nothing of the Russian anchor babies and oligarchs populating Florida - one town is now called "little Moscow" - and Russians brag about dropping babies w/dual passports at Trump properties there.

But to the rabid right, anything they can't see with their own eyes....or, more accurately, anyone with white skin or money......doesn't register.

The Hispanic population is 57 million in the US, I believe that is only the legal population. Add another 20 million or more for illegal so your comparison isn’t even close to a comparable situation.

On top of that Mexico isn’t exactly a safe place nor is many South America countries. Common sense (that liberals lack) tells your we need to control our border and make all immigrants go through the legal process. It’s not hard people, now get congress to understand

Why would I? Our state has no immigrant problem (or very little) because we are decent people who pay high wages and generally follow the laws.

Texans and Floridians who profit to the tune of billions should petition their GOP Legislatures who - right out loud - refuse to do E-Verify because they claim they need the economic boost of immigrants.

Here in MA. we have no "problem" with immigrants that hasn't existed for 100's of years...that is, nothing much has changed ever....except they have come from different parts of the world and we have integrated them.

The result? Highest education levels, highest GDP levels, etc....in the USA.
