What I find amusing though is that Trump still likes Fox News. but you’re right when your favorite news source bites you in your arse, it’s getting real.

Let’s not make it about Wallace and keep the focus on the conflict between what Trump’s own Admin reports and what Trump/ Huckabee says/ tweets.

The spokesperson of a POTUS lying about the motivation for shutting down the government is only a big deal depending on the political leanings of the messenger?

I just watched the segment that is the topic of this thread, and Sarah did not say that 4000 terrorists have crossed via the southern border. She said they have been apprehended at multiple ports of entry, including airports. And she is correct that the southern border is the most vulnerable at this point in time.
Of the 4000 suspected terrorists apprehended, none used the Southern border.

Where did the suspected terrorists come from?

What is the disposistiin of the 4000 suspected terrorists?

The border between US and Canada is the longest in the world. Far easier for a suspected terrorist to enter from Canada than Mexico.

NeoLiberals tend to be ignorant, in the literal sense. They consume only 100% biased/partisan propaganda from CNN/MSNBC et al. so they assume Fox News is identical to their preferred media outlets.

Fox News has been 50/50 pro and anti Trump the whole time. Chris Wallace is one of the most Anti-Trump talking heads in the MSM.

This is only news to the ignorant.

Please provide your source for 40,000-50,000 illegals crossing per month.

Best way to put a meaningful dent in illegal immigration is to eliminate incentives- employment, then housing.

It is obvious to the most casual observer, neither party is too keen about addressing massive employment of undocumented labor. Only a handful of states have mandated E-Verify of all employees. All made certain there were intended loopholes.

Nonetheless, there is no question that when a state requires employers to eVerify, the in state illegal population declines and moves to the majority of states that don’t require eVerffy.

Why has Texas and Florida not enacted E-Verify?

Over 36,000,000 Americans have watched the clip of Sarah getting checked on State TV's Fox News.
Over 36 million have watched Huckabee attempt to deny and choke on the facts provided by Trump’s own Admin which contradict Trump and her words.

To be fair, Chris Wallace is a pretty good interviewer.

I'll never forget his interview with Trump's attorney Jay Sekulow.

Sekulow got into an argument with himself over whether Trump was being investigated. First Sekulow said Trump was being investigated. Then he said he wasn't. Then he said he had no way of knowing as no one tells him these things.

The original clip has been removed from Youtube, but this is still up and well worth watching.

Appears the majority of people of all stripes do not want a wall or do not want to pay for it.

$5 billion will not cover the incremental cost of acquiring private property along the borders via Eminent Domain, appeals and condemnation.

The Admin has thus far been unable to consistently articulate if it’s a wall or a fense or the composistiin, thereof.
