Trump transcends the GOP AND the DemocRATS. He is the force majeure of politics, defeating all in his path and winning at every turn, and all on the behalf of the American people, the TRUE American people, NOT the posers.

-Eminent domain is theft
-Taxation is theft

Some landowners desperately want it because of the cattle rustling so are working with the WeBuildTheWall fund people. If you want details watch the town hall video I posted upthread. Very informative.

It's a puzzlement to them.

55 miles is a long way. The next budget is due Oct 1. Do You think they will still be working on Oct 1? .... I bet they are. And on Oct 2nd, too.
Another blatant lie.

I've only ever seen the president and his supporters claim that El Paso and other border cities are riddled with crime due to their proximity to the border.

Now y'all want to pretend that you knew all along that El Paso was safe.
What BS.


What is a puzzlement, I'm sure to many, is how a city that is 80% minority is so safe.
Also, how it remains so when thousands of people cross back and forth from Mexico on a daily basis.
I know that it is because the people who live there are good, hardworking people so there is absolutely no "puzzlement" for me.


And yeah, 55 miles is a loooong way.
It's about the distance between Denver and Colorado Springs, which takes all of a hour to drive.

But any little thing, right?

600 miles of wall were built under Bush and Obama. Trump just wants to fill in the gaps and put in better quality barriers as requested by border patrol agents and landowners.

Some landowners don't speak for all landowners.

All eminent domain is theft.

A friend of mine pointed out something I really hadn't considered.

Trump is task oriented. He doesn't care about optics and being politically correct. He just wants the job to get done, progress to be made. The polar opposite of the political class.

He will get it built one way or the other or both and that's driving the left crazy!

"I won't give him one dollar" Pelosi
Now 55 miles. I'll take 55 miles at a time. When that's finished another 55, rinse repeat and so on. Before you know it, it'll be done!
So much for that, Y'all.




You people are projecting how angry you are at this change of events - GOOD!

The deal allows for steel slats. Bit by bit Trump will keep chipping away at it, ultimately it will depend on the 2020 election results if America will get the secure border it deserves.

Because he's a stubborn fool.

Going after sanctuary employers like tRump would eliminate the illegal labor issue.

Why won't Pubs support that?

Think about it.
