Dude is going to lie repeatedly and declare a fictitious national emergency. Essentially he's going to do things the GOP feared/falsely claimed Obama would do. Worst President in history.

I'm disgusted that the three major networks are giving him air time for this fake emergency. I bet cable networks will see a surge in viewers tonight as large majorities switch the channel. I hope this costs the networks mega-bucks. They deserve it for catering to the guy who regularly labels them as fake news.

The Trump administration is exaggerating the security threat at the border and amplifying data in misleading ways or with outright falsehoods. We will hear more of these lies and phony material during tonight's 8 minutes of arm waving and fear mongering and counterfeit "statistics".



It may work to shore up his supporters and his prophets who will be out there propagandizing with this phony material today and tomorrow. But the courts, I don't know. I think they like more than arm waving.


P.S. If the president, ( head of the government which separated children and locked them up with no more than a tin foil blanket) tonight expresses fraudulent concern for the "humanitarian" crisis of his making at the southern border, it will be so galling, and I suspect many true Americans will be further enraged. Lose, lose Mr. President.

Democrats have no plans to make progress on anything that promotes prosperity. There is another fact for ya.

ESPECIALLY considering they refused to air Obama's 2014 immigration address on the basis that it was political. Apparently you can bully the networks into coverage.

Lets hope his teleprompter goes dead so we can declare the 25th after his incoherent rambling.

We all know what he is going to say. He has the gall to go prime time? He calls out all of the stations as being FAKE NEWS, yet he want to go on their stations to plead his case. They should ignore this liar and do their normal thing. Let him go on Faux news since he love them so much. Who can stand to listen to his voice? I won’t be watching. I’ll get and abbreviated version on the news later...

There's nothing quite like dressing up a hyperbolic opinion as an unimpeachable truth by baldly declaring it a fact. What are you going to do for your next trick, suck a golf ball through a garden hose?

As an aside, I'm not a Democrat, so I'm not sure your sad deflection generated the intended effect.

If you were reading the responses instead of making your knees jerk all over the place, you'd know what a ridiculous statement that is.

That's what mystifies me. He had a compromise, and elected to reject it. And he doesn't even see the irony ...

Here's another fact for ya: When you can't logically refute a statement, you deflect. Try staying on topic - in your own thread, for crying out loud. LMAO ...

Democrats can't handle the truth. So many on the left in this thread calling for fact checkers but it's the last thing they really want. Their elected democrat leaders know that.

Dem socialist star blasts fact-checkers for calling out incorrect statementshttps://www.foxnews.com/politics/oca...ias-toward-her

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez lashed out at fact-checkers just days after taking office, accusing them of “false equivalency” and “bias” toward her in their columns examining her statements.

Holy smokes, I had not considered this hypocrisy until your post. There is so much baloney in the air, my duplicitous warning system must be burning out.
