Did you really think he meant that Mexico would just cut a check?
Seems you are taking a page from Trump's chapter on wild exaggeration, but to your question...

No. I didn't think Mexico would just cut a check or do other than they did. I still don't know what Trump meant other than to put some imaginary icing on the imaginary cake he was serving up to his supporters like kids at an imaginary birthday party!

B-b-but Obama!

Whataboutism = weak sauce.

No need to mention your anger and disappointment, chuck

Your posts bleed with it.

Enjoy this sprightly retort.

Forrest has advice for you.

And instead of constantly whining about my posts, why don't you just go ahead and one-up me? Post your own witty little comeback.

Unless you don't know how to.

Carry on.

"Whataboutism." Good one.

"Your finger prints are all over the gun that killed him!"

"But what about all the other finger prints on all the other guns in the world?!?"

He's a master at whataboutism! Thinks it works! Please don't encourage him!

Even "mad...blah blah blah" is better than that old routine, but I see we're still wallowing at the depths of immaturity here. Don't let me get in the way of you having more fun with all that!





LOL, I though you liked history....unless it goes against you....


The depth of immaturity, is not looking back and seeing where the screws ups were.



And don't worry, you won't. Why would you think that?

He now speaks of a barrier or slats or a fence.

No mention of his "big beautiful 30 ft wall of reinforced concrete!"

He's a rudderless boat on stormy waters.

Interesting. Some wall commend that as being flexible and willing to compromise.



Bottom line - you hate Trump and there is nothing he could do that you would not hate. If he sticks to the original version of the wall he is being stubborn and uncompromising. If he backs off a bit he is rudderless and suffering dementia.

Does anybody here truly believe that the Wall is "racist"? How can it be racist to secure the border of your country?

Isn't a national border supposed to prevent people from the other side from entering your country without permission?

You ask this question after quoting what I wrote about the absurdity of believing Mexico would pay for the wall, so I hope you don't mind if don't bother further, other than to simply refer you to the many other comments I have posted about what works and what doesn't. I think you need to read those comments a little more carefully too, if you want to better understand anyway...

I'll answer when you tell me how many caravans of migrants have arrived at our northern border.

A moot point because it's just plain stupid to fall for Trump's panic driven deflections in the first place. The grifter plays on the fears and ignorance of birther types. Border security does not get solved with a Ming Dnasty era wall.
