    That's not exaggeration either. To support such a wall you have to be a fact devoid idiot of staggering proportions willing to waste billions of tax payers dollars on a boon doggle that history has proven time and time again, cannot work. Supporting "The Wall" is unquestionably the equivalent of tattooing "MORON" on your forehead.

    So with that being the case, and I'm sorry if I've hurt the feeling of those who support this utterly idiotic idea, there is no chance in hell that congress will permit these kind of cuts to fund something that is a complete and utter waste of the tax payers money.

    So we're talking a third Major Failure for Trump in three months.

    I tend to agree that funding is going to be an issue. trump might try to back pedal from his promise to make Mexico pay, but Democrats won't allow that to die a quiet death.

    Not getting the ACA repeal pretty much put a wrench in all future works. trump's entire failed policy relied heavily on the savings realized when you throw tens of millions of elderly/low income people out of their doctors' offices.

    From here, true Conservatives are going to micro manage his spending. When they weigh the reality of a wall not working, against the gross waste of $30 billion, they'll opt for more important issues.
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    What Obama did is utterly irrelevant and regardless of how the decide to waste money it's money that will still be wasted. Not only that this is not a war zone. These are our friendly neighbors and trade partners and the last thing we need in this nation are any European style borders.

    That money can be tracked down and recovered, even though Obama tried his damnedest​ to hide it.

    No mention of the bi partisan immigration bill that was passed in the Senate, and died on Boner's desk years ago. Odd how they talk about Obama, but never Boner?

    The answer is a comprehensive way to make immigrants contribute (more) to society, and get the most out of the fact that we aren't stopping the flow into the country.

    Well if you actually listened to what the tyrant has said, you wouldn't be here trying to bull shit yourself about it..
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Funny how so called conservatives are ok with wasting tax payer money on a boon doggle that couldn't possibly work because they're bigots and afraid of bogeymen.
