As a Trump supporter, I agree. It's not my problem. They didn't care when I didn't have a job.

But since you care, oh, so much, perhaps you could contribute to a few of these laid off workers.

I support the wall, but I can see why the dems aren't budging. If they submit and give it up to Trump, they're teaching him that he can do anything he wants with the country by simply holding it hostage until they bend over for him.

I was going to suggest TSA workers get jobs at McDonald's but they aren't qualified.

It will become your problem soon enough! For the life of me, I cannot imagine being so hard- hearted and indifferent to the struggles of people who want to go back to work and get paid. What a sad existence.

Way to go, Donald Trump!

>>> Let me guess, we'll see them outside the airport holding up a sign that says: "Will strip search you for food."


Way to go, Mr. Trump!

I don't think he expects to get The Wall.
If they write a full bill of comprehensive immigration reform and fund the whole thing, I think he will go for it. But it has to be complete and it has to be funded.
They've been talking about it for 40 years. Now's the time to get it done.
But Trump is not going to announce that. He knows better.

Wouldn't it be a better idea to focus on solutions to the problem that BOTH SIDES agree on? The problem is illegal immigration, and building a wall is not going to solve it.


I am baffled as to why you'd want to solve the problem of Trump's lack of accomplishing his campaign promises, when (instead of funding the wall), we could be solving illegal immigration, or making strides in that direction.

Your comment doesn't make sense, and we should not let one man-child's tantrum hold our entire nation hostage to something that will not solve any problems other than his own.
