Who claims the win on the wall?

Sounds like $1.4 B with over 55 miles of barriers. Should we argue over who won or just agree that that's probably about what would have happened if neither side made a big deal over the border to begin with?

I think the big winners will be illegal immigrants that cross the border and farmers that use migrant workers.

jeez... pretty much every industry uses undocumented labor, not just farmers.

cleaning staff, cooks, dishwashers, construction and landscaping...

and a lot of large corporations get around it by hiring a subcontractor to hire facilities maintenance staff, and so that subcontractor goes and hires the undocumented workers.

I guarantee most, if not all Fortune 500 companies are doing that.
 
Damn, I thought this was a thread about Game of Thrones..!!

.....winter is coming!

not likely, considering Obama made similar comments about illegal immigration and his proposals for more wall at higher funding levels passed without question. Yes, Trump made it a big part of his platform but he basically said what people on both sides of the political aisle, particularly high profile Dems who suddenly did a 180 on it, were saying.

Because of the partisan divide that existed long before Trump, I think it's inevitable that anything he ran on was going to be made into a big deal that the "moral" warriors for social and economic justice were going to turn into a partisan fight.

You think it would be a lot more?
 
Now that Trump is in full campaign mode, it will be non stop wall talk. This changes nothing.
 
From now on, it has to be referred to as "The Wall" not just a wall or refurbished border security or ongoing surveillance.


"The Wall" ...not the revisionist/fake Obama wall was created for the mass idiots who burn torches and think that because they're stupid and lazy, that they should get a job before a more qualified, harder working person who risked life and limb to clean toilets or drive Uber.
 
LOL, at Trump's El Paso rally, one of his retarded supporters attacked the BBC's cameraman for no reason. Link.

Your Dear Leader WANTS the cameras there, retard!

Countdown to Tigercrap claiming this was a "false flag operation"...

Don't forget that it was Obama who started putting small children in cages and separated from their parents ...it was Obama who fast-tracked hiring of dozens of ICE agents w/o background checks and it was Obama who was President before this incompetent jizz-stain ...so it's his fault because he's BLACK!!!


And the wall ...and her emails .......and the caravan!!




(wait, forget about the caravan, we're not running with that anymore)

I’ll give you the same recommendation I give jones. Always wait 48 hours before drawing any conclusions

Do we know whom this person was yet? Name? The idiots motivations are unknown at this time. It’s no secret the left is trying to turn a MAGA hat into a symbol of hate and that there are idiots on the left and right. Stop being such a parrot at least wait till the facts come out before leaping to any wacky false flag conclusion ya dingbat

In "false flag" operations, the opposing side uses the event to some advantage, e.g. launching a war, or a coup. Nothing happened after this.

I am sure if this guy is actually some actor, it'll come out and be a big deal. certainly Trump and his ilk aren't above screaming about things like that.

the MAGA crowd has done plenty of other stupid things like this, so I'm not sure why there should be much doubt in this case.

Does this apply to Trump, or can I just pre-judge?



What if Trump does something boneheaded more often than every 48 hours? Does that reset the clock?

I just noticed that you dropped the Michigan football is a religion quote. I thought that was weird, coming from you.

that OSU loss - more accurately the WAY we lost - at the end of the season, and then the bowl result... man, those really took the wind out of my sails.
 
Yes, by all means ...he was just probably a Manchester U fan and attacking the BBC cameraman, a Liverpool fan.


Those John Bulls and their hooligans!! So violent!

It's never the simplest explanation, always the most complicated one.
