Title: Trump: I'm still waiting for Democrats to make a deal to end shutdown
Post by: mystery-ak on December 29, 2018, 07:41:34 pm
 By Dave Boyer - The Washington Times - Saturday, December 29, 2018

President Trump said Saturday he is “waiting for the Democrats” to make a deal with him that would end the eight-day-old government shutdown and fund his border wall.

“I am in the White House waiting for the Democrats to come on over and make a deal on Border Security,” Mr. Trump tweeted. “From what I hear, they are spending so much time on Presidential Harassment that they have little time left for things like stopping crime and our military!”

The president met with his chief shutdown negotiators Friday night. He had dinner with Vice President Mike Pence, acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney and presidential adviser Jared Kushner at the vice president’s residence at the Naval Observatory in Washington.

Democrats have not made a counteroffer to the administration’s proposal for border-wall funding on Dec. 22. Most lawmakers are out of town for the holidays.

Democrats will take over the House majority on Thursday, when they’re expected to propose legislation that would end the partial government shutdown without funding the border wall.

His past decisions/foibles/whatever notwithstanding...I give him credit for standing tough on this.  And I hope he has the stomach to see it through.

If he is negotiating down then he doesn't.  Its just like the image.   Enough money for a go around fence here and there.

I wonder if you could explain Trumps tweets about Mexico is paying for wall.  How does the trade deal have anything to do with border wall if the money saved by better trade isn't designated for wall?

I honestly believe those tweets were before Trump actually became aware of the functionality of the three branches of government.

I don't think the trade deal had anything to do with the wall, though I haven't read what the agreement actually states.  All that we've been told is that the deal was to arrange for fair trade between the countries rather than free trade benefiting one country over the other.

What nonsense.

The Republican CONGRESS had two years to get something done.
What did they accomplish?

(Hmmmm.... I think they may have indeed "accomplished" their intended goal:
To get themselves back into the minority again!)

As I stated in another post, this is nothing but a Trump/GOP horse and pony show!  Trump will be a one term president. We will see a DEM seated in the oval office in 2020...bye-bye GOP.

Was this the game from the very beginning?  Trump and all the liberals and RINO's ensuring that a conservative didn't win the oval office?  Quite possibly indeed.  That was my first thought when Trump was running.  Though I can't discount some of the good he has done.

No, he is making those statements this month.  I don't see how he can say that.  The money isn't going toward the wall.  Furthermore, and you know this, he promised something like 10 billion to Mexico and Central America to "create jobs" or some baloney that would keep people in their own countries.  Pure baloney.  Two times what he is asking for border wall.  Now he wants to negotiate down.  What he wants isn't even enough.

    Last week his Administration announced they were sending $B's to Mexico and Central America.  Yesterday he says he's "thinking" of withholding already approved funds to said Countries.  It's becoming hard to keep up with the day to day rhetoric.
   Kinda like the Chinese telecom companies spying on everything, one week he advocates for them, the next he's cursing them. 
   I am becoming more disillusioned by the day with this Administration (if that is even possible), realizing he is my ONLY Hope right now is becoming increasingly depressing with each passing week.

@Chosen Daughter since the gov't is shutdown and the House bill is basically dead once the new Congress is sworn in, in just a couple of days, then all of this is nothing but pure b.s.  The DEMS aren't going to budge.  Why would they?  The new House will have a DEM majority and they aren't going to give Trump the $$ that he needs in the budget. 

Oh ... the games that our politicians play!

Yeah, I don't think you could call it art of deal, but art of deception works.  Nobody knows day to day what is, or what isn't.

Why would anyone want a DEMON-RAT  for president?  Low I.Q. thinking.  More accomplished by president in 18 months, than any prior president. in 8 years!  It will take a bit of time for business's to come BACK to America. Demon-rats have made sure, they ALL LEFT.  How can any SANE PERSON, want anyone else in 2020?  It boggles the mind. Yes, US-MCA. New trade deal. It was always the intent of tariffs paying for the wall, that some think a HAND WRITTEN CHECK would be presented by mexico for the wall is LUNACY at its height!  A check, that says FOR THE WALL.  lol

And I hope you are considering Trump a politician also.  Funny I saw a clip not too long ago of a rally where Trump said they were calling him a politician.  When wasn't he one?  The only art of the deal he knew how to make was ones that would benefit him.  Why did he wait till the last hour?  Seems simple, it was too late.

This really has nothing to do with the accomplishments of this president and everything to do with DEM control and seeking power. At the rate the illegals are pouring over our borders, soon, by sheer numbers it will be impossible for the GOP to obtain enough votes to win a seat in Congress or the WH.  That's been the game plan for quite awhile.  Those that vote DEM are dependent on the 'system', they are used to 'free' and not having to work.  Those coming across the border receive 'perks' and will vote accordingly.  Yes, illegals vote.  Yes, when the DEMS get the majority in both Houses and take the WH, you will see amnesty and it will become mathematically impossible for the GOP to win future seats. LBJ's Great Society was to ensure the DEM vote.

And the whole time trump tweeted nasty things about them. I’m sure name calling those whom you need to make a deal is an entire chapter in The Art of the Deal.

Nobody here wants a Dem pres, which is why most of us voted for conservative options. Trump and his Pecker loving cult got us this. Also, I love how your now deflecting Trump’s claim about Mexico paying for the wall.  :silly:

Yes his accomplishments ARE relevant. Are you kidding?   We know, everything you posted, for years now.  My president is trying to stop that. You seem, set, to GIVE IN.  No fight, just be negative, give America away.  It is NOT about GOP.

IT IS ABOUT SAVING OUR COUNTRY!  OUR WAY OF LIFE. OUR CONSTITUTION.  MY president is a CENTRIST anyway. 

Always has been.  I would think the LEFT/DEMOCRATS would like that.  We are near civil war.

Hello... It's been about saving this country for quite some time...that's nothing new...some of us have been working towards that goal for quite some time.  Some of us tried  to enlighten others about the overwhelming cost of illegal immigration on our society, by actually going out and speaking among people at different groups and attending various rallies and clubs, prayer vigils, etc., and trying to get others on board. We were met with ridicule, violence, disbelief, apathy and considered racists among other things. The reality is this problem should have been nipped in the bud then instead of over a decade later when the problem is out of control and yes, nearing some type of civil uprising.

I'm not being negative, rather I'm giving a dose of reality.  The liberal leftist believe the way of the DEM party and the illegals pouring over our borders have been told that all they have to do is come here and they will be given a free ride and all will vote accordingly.  As we have witnessed in the recent midterms, the integrity of our electoral process is questionable.  The DEMS will stop at nothing to ensure control even if it means promoting violence among their voting base and paying mobs in caravans to make their way into our country.  It's all about ensuring that they have the majority votes eventually giving them a one party system and eventual global dominance.

The second dose of reality is that WE the people have allowed our politicians to play the blame game and have not held them responsible nor accountable and the result is what we are experiencing today.

Thank you! Trump isn't perfect. Trump has made mistakes. But let's not get distracted by the shiny, spinning disco ball and ignore the fact that Congress has been worthless these last two years.

If we're actually constitutionalists and conservatives, then if blame is to be spread, we need to recognize that the leaders of the separate-but-equal legislative branch of govt are just as culpable.

Almost all the blame lies on Congress, IMO.  It's hard to assign much to trump since we don't know if he would have signed all the conservative legislation they didn't bother to pass.

Exactly.  FAILED leadership is responsible in BOTH the House and the Senate for the past 4 years. My complaint with Trump is his inability to reign in members of his own party.  After all he proclaimed that he was such a magnificent deal maker.  My other complaint is he waited till the very last few days.  Holding his breath and shutting down the government will prove futile in the next couple of days and then, in reality, what options does he have other than to go along with what he can eek out of Chuckie and Nancy.

It make him look incompetent and inept.  His meeting with Chuckie and Nancy was all nothing more than a stage show.

Keep in mind he didn't shut down (a very small part of) the gov't.  They haven't put a bill on his desk.

The House approved a bill and of course the Senate refused to approve.  That House bill goes away in a couple of days, making Trump look incompetent and inept.  He fully knew that Chuck and Nancy would never approve ... so calling the media in was fruitless and foolish.  What did it accomplish?  Putting the blame on the shoulders of the DEMS?  That only matters to Trump's base.  The DEM base could care less.  They're applauding their leadership for not caving and the reality of the matter is, a new bill will NOT be passed granting Trump $$ in the budget for a wall with the new DEM majority in the House. The DEMS won again, even with a GOP majority!  So again, what did Trump accomplish on this issue?  Not a darn thing.  In fact, by all indications he's going to surrender to DACA, asylum and still we have no WALL.

When Congress puts a bill (or a budget!) on his desk and he vetoes it, then he can have the blame/credit for a shutdown.  Until then, it's a failure of Congress to do their job.

I wonder how many suckers are going to believe the GOP in 2020 when they say elect us to the majority again.....we promise we will do what we were elected to do this time... :shrug:

Therein lies yet another problem.  We sure as heck don't want to keep electing the same people who continue to break their promises election after election.  Unfortunately, they often run unopposed or the opposition is under funded and/or unheard of and so they continue to get elected. The only other alternatives are to elect a liberal or refrain from voting.

Exactly.  FAILED leadership is responsible in BOTH the House and the Senate for the past 4 years. My complaint with Trump is his inability to reign in members of his own party. 

Don't put this bullshit on the President @libertybele   The problem in the House was NT Ryan and his refusal to bring legislation to the floor for a vote.  It was Ryan for his making unnecessary compromises.  It was Ryan for telling the President and us that he's going full out obstructionist because he's keeping the Speakership even though he's retiring and doesn't have to answer to the voters--or anyone-- again.

Nearly forty members of the Republican caucus in the House chose retirement en masse ... greasing the wheels for a flip in the House.  We can log this as Ryan's most significant victory.

On the Senate side our majority was cut in half by McCain, the high priest of NTs, refusing to retire and allow an actively voting Senator to replace him.  We lost the seat in Alabama because conservatives insisted on nominating a candidate--against the wishes and endorsement of the President-- who had two statewide defeats already under his belt.  When the pedophile charges hit, he didn't have the depth of support needed to withstand them.  But we got to argue morality for a few months, so I guess losing the seat was worth it.

Murkowski and Collins were reliable "no" votes who delighted in being the outliers and morally superior; and Flake--another one who removed himself from voter outrage---stayed up nights too excited to sleep knowing he was going to stop the President.  It didn't matter that he was also stopping his pro-America agenda, he was stopping the man.

By and large Republicans don't suck.  Republican NTs do.  What we're now witnessing is the Republican NT chickens coming home to roost.   Aim your anger at them.  They've earned it.

Yes.  In the first quarter of 2016 Ryan began telling the media and the caucus that the Republicans were not going to keep the House.  If you're going to retire now is the time was his drumbeat.  A rather self-fulfilling prophecy and Ryan's finest work.

...hmmm.... I wonder what part of 'failed leadership' in both Houses you're not comprehending??  Sorry @Right_in_Virginia but I find it laughable that you got your panties in a bunch because I dared to lay some blame on the President.

Last time I checked, Trump called in the media circus knowing full well that Chuckie and Nancy weren't going to budge.  Why would they?  ALL knew that the new Congress would be sworn in, in just a few short days.  So .... why would they budge knowing that the House bill was DOA in the current Senate and new DEM House? 

If you want to continue to allow the politicians and our president to play the blame game go for it.  He can blame the DEMS all he wants, but at the end of the day, what difference does it make? Why didn't Trump play this hand last year and stay strong? The only people it matters to is the GOP voting base.  The DEMS are happy that their leadership has stood strong ...NO wall. Their voting base is happy.  They won this one.  The American people and especially Trump supporters lost BIGLY on this one. Most realized that the Senate was never going to budge.  The narcissistic side of Trump took over and he failed. 

Meanwhile we have Kelly even disputing that Trump's intent is not to build a concrete "WALL" but rather steel slats that can be seen through!  Last time I heard, Trump proclaimed he was going to build a wall similar to the one in Israel ... so the contradictions and back pedaling from Trump continues ... one thing I don't like about the man.  What he says and what he does are often two different things.

Yes, I give him credit when credit is due, but I'll be darned if I give him a free pass, especially on the very issue he campaigned on; the WALL!!!

No one is patting the RINO's on the back here; especially, McCain, Jeb or Kasich.  They are RINO's.  Trump has done some good for this country and he has tried to turn America around and put her on a positive path.  I am not denying that.

His willingness several months ago to hand the DEMS amnesty for DACA IS unacceptable and he has FAILED to deliver on the WALL, the very issue that handed him the presidency.  IF he was so intent on the wall, that should have been priority since day one and not waiting till the eleventh hour when he knew a bill would never pass the Senate and would be DOA in the next Congress and call in the media to make it a circus for all to view.

IF the wall gets built and we have no asylum, no DACA and no amnesty (all part of his campaign promise) then I will be the very first one to praise this President as the best ever.  Until then, I refuse to give him a free pass. The sovereignty of our country IS at stake.

Cute, @Right_in_Virginia  but, I definitely don't need your help.  You are willing to give Trump a free pass on amnesty and DACA and NO wall.  I am not.  It's as simple as that.  Error in my ways? Too funny!  I refuse to compromise when it comes to the WALL and the sovereignty of this country.  There is NO compromise on those issues.  None.  No free pass for Trump on these issues.  None.

@Right_in_Virginia Trump's willingness to offer DEMS amnesty for the recent DACA dispute is something that you refuse to accept.  I have posted several links, and it was reported by many news sources.  If you refuse to open your eyes, that's on you.

2. Trump cannot build a wall. It requires Congressional approval for the money.
3. The Democrats voted against keeping the government open.

The other fact is the new Congress will be sworn in on January 3rd, which will make the House bill null and void.  Perhaps there will be a vote either on the 1st (if they reconvene) or the 2nd, but I'm not holding my breath nor am I holding my breath that there will be enough votes in the Senate.

No, Trump himself is the plague.  You know what is funny?  That Lindsey Graham obviously and openly opposes Trump but people like you hang on Grahams every word.  Lindsey Graham goes around with his little press conferences telling everyone how he is correcting Trumps ill informed ways.  Its OK with you right?  Its Lindsey Graham at the head of the opposition to immigration and always has been.  But Trump keeps him at his side like a loyal dog.  Graham is in there every day pushing the president to except his amnesty and nothing from you about it.

Graham just majorly opposed Trump in the Syria pull out.  I actually think he is probably right, but he made the President sound like a nut.  And he made himself sound like the savior that went in with his General to talk some sense into the nut President.

That really is funny because if any other Senator was to question Trump policy they would be targets for Trump.  He would be working diligently to make sure their names were shouted at rallies as evil NTers.  He would be working to destroy their career and assure that they never get elected again.  But free pass for Lindsey Graham.

Trump isn't running this country.  He makes messes and others clean up.  Kushner, Ivanka, Mulvaney and Graham are running the country.  Trump makes statements and takes them back after others correct him.

Sessions was the best thing going in the Trump administration.  He was working on crime and illegal immigration.  What has happened at the DOJ since he left?

Talk is cheap.  Talk is how Trump got elected.  It worked for him and I will give him praise when it starts working for us.  For America and her security.  For the American people that did vote for him according to all that talking he did.

And again...Sessions was working on the campaign promises that Trump had given America.  But it had to be about recusing himself.  All about Trump.  Mind you that Lindsey Graham advised Jeff Sessions to recuse himself.

I am not hateful.  Just mad that this country is being taken over by Mexico, their cartels and Central American gangs.  I am sorry but patching fences isn't going to keep them out.  A new bigger caravan upwards of 15,000 on their way and Trump is reducing border wall funding to 2.1 billion.  Not going to finish anything.  At best a few miles here and there.  Or fence patching which is literally what we have been doing.  December shows that they are still getting in at record numbers.

Its very simple.  5.6 to 2.1 says not serious.  Border security not important to the President.

Thank you @Chosen Daughter for pointing out the reality of our situation.  Some of the people in the last caravan mob who came to our borders are still waiting for asylum.  No fence would change that situation.  In all fairness Trump did try to strengthen our asylum laws but that change was short lived because of a liberal judge.

You are correct though, Trump accepting a reduction in money for the wall is indicative of what's to come with a new DEM majority in the House. 

Border security/wall is what got him elected and for him to soften or backpedal in any way is not acceptable and I fully question the integrity of that promise and I also question the judgment of those people who are willing to give him a free pass on this issue. His willingness to bend on the wall is alarming.  He willingness to once again consider granting amnesty is equally alarming.

Those issues in my books are NOT negotiable.  Stats have shown that we have more illegals crossing over into this country than under Bammy.  Why is that? Here is the president that has promised NO amnesty and a WALL and to stop illegal immigration and here we sit.  When the sheer number of illegals and those granted asylum and refugee status outnumber the voting GOP populace, then those who gave him a free pass will be shaking their heads wondering what happened?  When gang violence gets so out of control that attacks on citizens become more commonplace, they will be the first ones to demand something be done. Also, the drug cartel has increased their presence in this country and the opioid crisis is now an epidemic  to such a point that the average life expectancy in this country is now lower.  Yet, his followers are still willing to give him a free pass.

Those who continue to glorify this man ARE responsible for what happens to this country as a result of his actions in the past, present and future.

Drug Cartel and their criminal business had been increasing since the early 2000's.  I posted an article in the immigration section where a child in LA was describing how most of his friends are dead or in gangs.  Our prison data from our very own DOJ tells the story about Federal crime and illegal immigration.  It is only one part of a whole of ills caused by illegal immigration.  The cost to taxpayers who have to flip the bill for incarceration, food, housing, medical, dental and education for children of illegal immigrants.  We are suffocating from the affects of open borders.  We can look forward in the very near future to the same way of life that these immigrants claim they are leaving.

I sincerely do feel for the workers and their families of this Federal shutdown.  But the scope is much bigger, much wider.  It is about the country and its future.  I have said that Trump should take this shutdown and ask for all of it.  Every bit needed to complete the wall.  Whether it is 26 billion or 40.  It will all come back because we have rock solid data showing the cost of illegal immigration.  If Trump cares about our children and their future he will up the request, not lower it.  He will see to it that our border is secured. 

Democrats have already announced the first order of business for the new Congress.  Bill including border security.  1.3 billion I think was the figure I read for fixing fencing.

A ship tossed to and fro is not a steady ship.

I found the article.  Sad that this is California, but selfish liberal politicians could care less what is happening in their state.  In fact the entire Pacific Northwest.  I wonder too, how can we take people into LA on an asylum request when we throw them right into the MS-13 trap?  Escape from what?

Let's look at facts:

1. The Continuation Bill is awaiting the Senate to return to Washington. Trump cannot open the government.
2. Trump cannot build a wall. It requires Congressional approval for the money.
3. The Democrats voted against keeping the government open.

Trump is not a dictator, and cannot even do things he campaigned for and wants to do.

    Last week his Administration announced they were sending $B's to Mexico and Central America.  Yesterday he says he's "thinking" of withholding already approved funds to said Countries.  It's becoming hard to keep up with the day to day rhetoric.
   Kinda like the Chinese telecom companies spying on everything, one week he advocates for them, the next he's cursing them. 
   I am becoming more disillusioned by the day with this Administration (if that is even possible), realizing he is my ONLY Hope right now is becoming increasingly depressing with each passing week.

Cheer up, @corbe   Do what I do.  I concentrate on what Trump actually does.  He doesn't think before he speaks sometimes but he does think before he acts.

I like that he brings a new perspective ... like thinking out of the popcorn box.  How long have we tried to police the Middle East? And to what end?  But he's the first to actually pull out.

His policies have been good for the economy.

And we do need to get control of illegal immigration.  Not just people but drugs flowing through.

I'm glad he's standing firm on this. 

And, you might just as well learn to love him because the democrats have no one who can beat him.

The newscast with Pelosi and Schumer was entertaining and good for popcorn sales.  Nice way to put them on the record.  But it also insured no deal would be made. 

I'll be surprised if Trump doesn't back down in some way.

Politics in a country as divided as we are now on basic issues will always consist of give and take.

Trump will only back down if he sees an advantage in doing so.

I am constantly disheartened by otherwise normal people who do not see that Trump is trying as hard as it is possible for a guy to do to keep his promises.  He is not a dictator and he's done so much.

Passionate anti-illegal immigration people like @libertybele and @Chosen Daughter are continually sniping at him because he can't seem to wave a magic wand, without the slightest appreciation for how hard he is working on this issue.

@berdie not continually sniping at him, but rather pointing out the fact that his attempt to get a border wall was made at the very last hours before a new Congress would be sworn in. Certainly he must have known that Schumer wouldn't budge, why would he?  Schumer knew that Trump didn't have the votes in the Senate.  Trump also must have known that within days the new Congress would be sworn in; voiding the House bill.  So ... my question is ... why create the media circus? 

Trump promised a wall, yet he waits until the odds are unfavorable in getting funding to make a hard push.  WHY?  Why toy with the American people?  Schumer laughed in his face and Nancy flat out told him, he wasn't going to win this.

Does anyone think that the Senate will reconvene tomorrow or Wednesday and the vote will pass in the Senate before Thursday when the new Congress is sworn in? 

Even the Turtle didn't want to shut down the government ... what does that tell you?  So what the DEMS get the blame for the shutdown.? Who cares? ... all that matters is there still is no $$ for the wall!

Meanwhile...there are reports of a new caravan of appx. 15,000 heading our way.  Perhaps the new DEM majority in the House led by Pelosi will give Trump $$.  Anyone really think that's going to happen?

Good grief!  I'm not fighting Trump in any way nor I am not misrepresenting the situation.  Trump had a majority for 2 years and in the time he should have worked within that majority to get a wall.  Now, when the GOP has lost the House majority, he decides to play hardball.  Come on. 

The Secure Fence Act was passed by BOTH houses in 2006 during 'W's term ... not fully funded ... Bammy became president ... we all know the history so I really don't think the relevancy of past presidents bares any credence to the situation at hand. That's in the past and what's done is done.  We can't go backwards. What matters is NOW under Trump.  He's the president  and could of, would have, should have under another president to me is meaningless.

Trump grandstanded, created a media circus in the 11th hour and if you want to give him a free pass on this go for it.  I don't.

President "Art of the Deal" has been working on a deal for the fence for two years? He had a majority in the House and Senate during his first two years, and couldn't get them to pony up a measly $5 billion for his wall.

The wall was his signature issue when he ran for President, and now he's painted himself into a corner. He has also been poorly served by his staff, who should have put together a game plan to achieve his signature issue. Instead of cultivating allies, and expanding his base of support, he's turned off many potential supporters by his irascible and mercurial style. The chaos by which he governs has stolen a significant amount of energy by creating constant turnover among his key advisors.

And while his core supporters egg him on, chortling and cheering over the financial distress of countless lower to middle grade federal employees, there are millions that will say "a pox on both houses", and tune out the soap opera in the nation's capital.

There's a lesson I learned while in the Army: you can mess with me all you want, but don't mess with my pay. There's roughly 800,000 out there whose pay is being messed with, and the collateral damage will soon be apparent. Restaurants and other providers of goods and services to these 800,000 are starting to feel the pinch.

O/T, but I recommend that you read the novel Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. The author does an exceptional job of laying out the consequences of inaction and poor decisions. It can be a difficult novel to read, as most people are scared away from its 1100 plus pages.

I hope now you better understand why I think Republican/Conservative NTs are a plague on our national security.  They brought America to this point.

We always know what to expect from democrats – after all, they are democrats...and too many of them are NWO proto-communists.

But, to see Republican and conservative NeverTrumpers falling in line with fake news and democrat attacks on our republican president, is sickening.

The congress had two-years of total control and if the president doesn’t get the wall, it’s on them, the turncoat Republican and conservative NeverTrumpers.

Frederick Forsythe is like that, too. He takes the first couple hundred pages to set the stage. After reading a couple of his novels I knew exactly where to stop, because if I didn't, I was going to be up all night until I finished the novel.

Set aside Rand's philosophy of objectivism, she does a remarkable job of developing characters. Francisco d'Anconia's money speech in the chapter "The Aristocracy of Pull" is must reading. If that's not the DC/Beltway way of life today, I don't know what is.

I told him he was lucky not to get an Article 32. He kept claiming that Trump was a racist and had insulted his wife.

Thank you! Trump isn't perfect. Trump has made mistakes. But let's not get distracted by the shiny, spinning disco ball and ignore the fact that Congress has been worthless these last two years.

If we're actually constitutionalists and conservatives, then if blame is to be spread, we need to recognize that the leaders of the separate-but-equal legislative branch of govt are just as culpable.
I actually blame the congress critters more. When Obozo was President they kept having those sham votes to repeal Obozo care. They should have had a bill written and waiting on Trump's desk January 20th. Instead they forced him to use Executive orders.

Yes, he has and he is our only President to make an issue of this vital problem for our country.

But all the NTers do is focus on the fact that he hasn't been able to accomplish it yet and ignore all the roadblocks he has faced.

He's faced two years in which his Republican majority in the House and Senate could not get their act together and work with him on the issue.  Just when the Senate is slowly beginning to come around, he lost the House though by a far smaller percentage than most presidents mid-term.

The American people overwhelmingly want border safety.

I am not cheering over the loss of pay for government workers but those people are assured of receiving their back pay eventually and can probably get loans to tide them based on that.  On the other hand, unemployment is at a record low level and many people ARE getting paychecks who were not before Trump's economy.

I read Atlas Shrugged and I am not slogging through that opus again.  I know she is worshipped by some but not by me.

Not true! The males and alleged males are getting wood at the thought of Trump failing. They would rather see Jesse Jackson as President than a "outsider" that doesn't owe loyalty to the RINO Party and who can't be blackmailed into following orders. These Party Pod People are professional victims,and the whole idea of a President that won office as a Republican can get things done is the most terrifying thing they have ever heard of because it means they might lose their professional victim status.

   Sure, @Axeslinger we'll accept that your not a Boy Jorge Lover but it's obvious to all of us that you support the Rainbow Push and Jesse Jackson, come clean and admit it.

Since I didn’t vote for Trump either, it can obviously be inferred that I would prefer Jesse or Hillary in the White House...that’s Trumper logic, of course.   :thud:

No, you’re perfectly safe. If not voting for trump is voting for Hilary, then not voting for Hillary is a vote for trump. Just use their “logic” against them, but make sure you have proper protection. It’s super messy when their heads explode.

WHAT conservative? The alleged Republican Party hates conservatives and has no room for one.

The GOP House got what they deserved in the mid terms. That POS Ryan did everything he could to depress GOP turnout.
At least the Senate got two SC seats filled and moved a lot of judges on to the bench.

Agree, and thank you.

Drug Cartel and their criminal business had been increasing since the early 2000's.  I posted an article in the immigration section where a child in LA was describing how most of his friends are dead or in gangs.  Our prison data from our very own DOJ tells the story about Federal crime and illegal immigration.  It is only one part of a whole of ills caused by illegal immigration.  The cost to taxpayers who have to flip the bill for incarceration, food, housing, medical, dental and education for children of illegal immigrants.  We are suffocating from the affects of open borders.  We can look forward in the very near future to the same way of life that these immigrants claim they are leaving.

I sincerely do feel for the workers and their families of this Federal shutdown.  But the scope is much bigger, much wider.  It is about the country and its future.  I have said that Trump should take this shutdown and ask for all of it.  Every bit needed to complete the wall.  Whether it is 26 billion or 40.  It will all come back because we have rock solid data showing the cost of illegal immigration.  If Trump cares about our children and their future he will up the request, not lower it.  He will see to it that our border is secured. 

Democrats have already announced the first order of business for the new Congress.  Bill including border security.  1.3 billion I think was the figure I read for fixing fencing.

A ship tossed to and fro is not a steady ship.

I found the article.  Sad that this is California, but selfish liberal politicians could care less what is happening in their state.  In fact the entire Pacific Northwest.  I wonder too, how can we take people into LA on an asylum request when we throw them right into the MS-13 trap?  Escape from what?

https://www.city-journal.org/html/immigrant-gang-plague-12801.html (https://www.city-journal.org/html/immigrant-gang-plague-12801.html)

Well there is some good news... The new governor of California is asking for additional healthcare benefits for illegals. That should go a long way towards sucking the illegals out of other states into California... San Francisco was just the beginning of what California is sowing.

@corbe you may find this hard to believe but in addition to the NT's and AT's there is such an animal as an ST. That would be a sometimes Trumper. When he does something I like I say so, when he does something I don't like I say so. I did not vote for him, I was not convinced that he would hold Conservative convictions. For the most part he has proven me wrong on that. Of course living in VA it doesn't matter, NoVA and Richmond have been consistently forcing our state blue.
All that being said if he is able to deliver on the wall I will vote for him, if not I will be voting libertarian again.

Likewise, just because a person is not AT does not make that person NT.

Being nicer, more PURE, holy, saint like?  WHO?  LDS, Mitt Romney, who is for NWO, and a RINO?  WHO IS FOR ILLEGALS, as his dad was born in mexico in LDS compound, and which a lot of LDS still go to for summer.  He does not want any borders.  Mitt, who VIOLATES his own ARTICLE OF FAITH, NUMBER 12?  THAT SAINT?  He needs to be excommunicated from the church, by violating TWO of their doctrines, and as bishop, he knows better.   PLEASE, PLEASE tell me who is MORE CONSERVATIVE,  who fights for the American people, better than PRESIDENT TRUMP?

(Not really that pissed at you, but having LIVED, STARVED, in socialism country, I get upset what some people write on here. OUR country is DYING, DYING, and people want some "perfection" of another human being, that will never be good enough anyway.  DOES NOT EXIST!  The virtue signaling people, make me sick.

We always know what to expect from democrats – after all, they are democrats...and too many of them are NWO proto-communists.

But, to see Republican and conservative NeverTrumpers falling in line with fake news and democrat attacks on our republican president, is sickening.

The congress had two-years of total control and if the president doesn’t get the wall, it’s on them, the turncoat Republican and conservative NeverTrumpers.


Agree.  If people don't support the best president, we've had in a long time, they have some mental disorder. Not able to be logical, and not for their own preservation.  How is THAT not having a mental disorder?  Fighting for your own demise.
These virtue signaling people on here, have no clue, what it means to live in socialism. Try reading about Venezuela.  They don't care. People there are eating dogs, flamingo's, zoo animals to survive. They don't believe it can happen here. Ocacio, is pushing for that. Many in office now, want Communism. NT's just don't get it. THEY ARE democrats. Not conservatives.
Fooling themselves. Fortunately, I will be dead, before we go full Venezuela.  I've already, lived, starved in socialism once, don't care to do it again.  People need a good thump on the head!    22222frying pan   9999hair out0000

I just don't get it.  So, everyone else, is so much BETTER, than a successful builder, businessman and now president as TRUMP!  He is the most perfect president ever.  Since, it is a "job" one cannot get training on BEFORE, it is a, by the seat of your pants operation.  I think he has done better, than WELL.  EXTRAORDINARY. I've been around since Eisenhower. I speak with knowledge. I don't think TRUMP has made any mistake!  How does anyone Know the FUTURE?  AFTER THE FACT, we have all these people talking about, 20/20 hindsight, coulda, woulda, shoulda. (Tell us before what to do, not AFTER)  He is ONE human being fighting for our country, if people don't see that, they are all democrats and anti-American.  Don't care what label they try to put on themselves.  Not for duly elected, best president ever?  DEMOCRAT=PROGRESSIVE=COMMUNIST.

They want a SAINT to run this country?  Sure, guess how 'TOUGH" a SAINT WOULD BE. BEND OVER.

To give any President a free pass for every reason and to paint their picture rosier than warranted and to put them on a pedestal is absurd, ridiculous, and dangerous.

....^ 5 !    I get so sick of all the virtue signaling people on here!  That is all so PHONY to me.  What is being done to president TRUMP is just s savage as what they have done to Jesus!  All that is left is to nail him to a cross...they are wanting that.  His name, reputation, family history, wife,  kids have been called horrible names, by the left!  LIED ABOUT SINCE 2015,,,AND EVERY DAY SINCE THEN.  I could not hold up under all of that while helping this country! 
FOR NO PAY!....It is like SPORT for all those against TRUMP. " What can we say to undermine, bash the president, so I look 'smart", "virtuous" on here."    Jesus would be the FIRST..to say, not to do that!   Oh, and ARTICLE 12 in the articles of faith in Quad says;  We believe in being subject to kings, presidents, rulers, and magistrates, in OBEYING, HONORING,
and SUSTAINING THE LAW.    Now, where does Holier then thou, Mitt come in?  ARTICLE  13. "doing good to all men"
I don't see any real Christians.  We are to forgive 7 X 70...yet people hold on to their grudges about My president.

He is better than most of you on here.  HE IS A CENTRIST.  I would think all the lefty's would like that. 

My president is going through trial by FIRE...daily. 

 So, let the mocking ...begin, by all those Christians who are So GOOD.

And the whole time trump tweeted nasty things about them. I’m sure name calling those whom you need to make a deal is an entire chapter in The Art of the Deal.

@goodwithagun

Sooooo,now it's TRUMPS fault the RINO's are working with their Dim brothers to destroy America?

Want to see someone working to destroy America? Look in a mirror.

-------------------------------

Agree.

 So, Trump called some names?  FIRST..they did it to HIM. TRUMP REPLIED.  Some still call him ORANGE, talk about his penis, his HAIR, hands, etc.  BUT...that is "not' name calling my president.  That is ALL IT HAS BEEN!  DAY ONE.  They called him clown, buffoon, and many more names. There is a collage of what all these so called "good people', called him NAMES FIRST!

What I just wrote, should not have been necessary, if anyone has paid any attention to FAKE, LEFT NEWS.

Actually, he brought up a few of those topics first, specifically the topic that probably gave you an orgasm just typing. Hint: It’s not his unnatural complexion.

If you step back...try to be totally objective.

1) The mainstream media, social media, entertainment, academia and the Washington establishment, his OWN party included...hate his guts and the idea he's breathing.

2) Oh..and the Democrat Party, taken over by the radical Left, thinks he's Hitler and Judge Roy Bean.  On a good day.

So yeah...I'd compared President Trump's persecution to that of Jesus.    wink777

yet people hold on to their grudges about My president.

He is better than most of you on here.  HE IS A CENTRIST.

There it is right there (except that it is wrong... he is a liberal)...

But you suggest that Conservatives hold a grudge.
Not true.

Conservatives hold to principles... Which your entire movement disregards.
Hence it is no grudge, but rather, opposition directly.

I am not interested in the exploits of centrists or liberals.
I am interested in the principles of Conservatism, of which your movement defends not a single one.
Indeed, most of y'all could not even name them.

In that, the best I could do is feign indifference to your 'cause' (as if that is defined), which I mostly do, in the interest of politeness.

Until you come up against those principles, and calling yourself conservative without them.
Then I will rise, as surely as the sun, and there I will defend, and be against you.

Otherwise, this is definitely not my circus, and most certainly not my clown.

@corbe you may find this hard to believe but in addition to the NT's and AT's there is such an animal as an ST. That would be a sometimes Trumper. When he does something I like I say so, when he does something I don't like I say so. I did not vote for him, I was not convinced that he would hold Conservative convictions. For the most part he has proven me wrong on that. Of course living in VA it doesn't matter, NoVA and Richmond have been consistently forcing our state blue.
All that being said if he is able to deliver on the wall I will vote for him, if not I will be voting libertarian again.



As much as I like  your posts, if you are NOT going to vote for president TRUMP in 2020...don't vote at all.  Same diff, voting for Libertarian or third party. A WASTED VOTE.  I am in my very small, tiny, tiny way trying to save America.   Wake people up. They refuse TRUTH. FACTS.   President TRUMP is delivering on the wall.  He is using constitution and CONGRESS 
TO GET THAT DONE. EVEN SHUT DOWN. If it is not done...NOT ON HIM.  Why would you penalize him for what, democrats, RINO'S, MEDIA have done to him?   ALL ARE ANTI-AMERICANS.  HE IS OUR LAST HOPE TO SAVE OUR COUNTRY.

IF PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT, WE ARE LOST..GONE.  NO MORE AMERICA. NO MORE AMERICA.  Cannot make it more clearer than that.  NO IST, 2ND, 5TH, 4TH.....and more, lost. NO CONSTITUTION.   WE ARE OVER.

Now every one is going to say, I said Trump is like Jesus. NO.

Then you are all missing the point.  EVEN JESUS WOULD NOT BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR SOME OF YOU. I gave examples.

Okay, you pegged me. I’m guilty. I’m jealous of an anonymous internet sugar daddy and his main squeeze.

He may be a dumb ass to you, some faceless critic from the back of the room. But, President Trump came into office with a conservative agenda and has steadfastly worked to achieve his campaign promises. And no amount of phony breaking news stories or whining from outraged democrats can erase his accomplishments thus far.

Six more years, baby. The fun’s just started. Brace yourself. I hope you can recover from all the winning.

Nope, “of personal insults” is a prepositional phrase.

I don't think so.  Seems to be a sensitive subject for some people.  Maybe they're friends of Bill.

"Friends of Bill" is a euphemism for a member of Alcoholics Anonymous.  The first name of the guy that founded AA was William.
