You can attack him and hate him for doing his job, he doesn't care.


So, I wasn't wrong, despite your earlier assertion. Got it.


I'm not against more fencing/walls, per se. I'm not much of a fan about how he's going about it - I think it sets a very dangerous precedent going forward.


I'm also not convinced that a wall from "sea to shining sea" is the most effective expenditure of our tax dollars.

They will eventually, until then we will pay for it like we pay for all the other negative affects of illegal immigration on our nation.

Nah, you were clearly wrong but I’ve moved on.

You can choose to be a fan of whatever you want, our President will continue to do what needs to be done to increase our border security and correct the mistakes and shortcomings of past administrations.

Oh man I have so many things to sell you! Don't worry about what it costs! Someone else will pay for it... eventually.


How you guys get through the week without being scammed out of your life savings remains a mystery to me.

I am that someone else, I’ve been paying for illegal immigrants all my adult life. I know what it costs, more wall is a bargain.

Again, not the duty of the military.

It is not complicated. The military should not be enforcing ANY laws within the US.

The military is protecting our borders, that’s the primary duty of our military. Nevertheless, it’s happening whether you agree with it or not. 😂

You people did it with Obamacare long before Trump, this isn’t new.

I know enough, you aren’t exactly a deep and philosophical poster who uses logic and common sense. Sorry if the truth hurts, you’ll get over it.
