and here you, and others sit, sniping at the one guy who feels as strongly about this issue as you claim to feel.

Trump needs your support here, and not your whining because he can't wave a wand or do the impossible.
@Emjay

I disagree...slightly.  I do fully support his efforts on this and want him to hold strong on the shutdown.  Likewise I can recognize that the perfect is the enemy of the good. 

However, some whining is ALSO productive when it is directed at members of congress to push for the best compromise attainable. And it is productive here on the forum to push for more and sway others to push for more so that they too can push their members of Congress.

 Your implied take of “shut up and take it” means that we should take whatever morsels our “betters” think they can can cram down our throats.  My .02 worth

Total amen @jpsb   It amazes and horrifies me that so many here are willing to throw Trump to the wolves ... the one man who actually feels strongly about border security.

They seem unable to see the true stakes in this fight and how desperately we need to support Trump.

NOT at the expense of amnesty, which will wind up continuing and ongoing.
There is ONLY one proper answer that will awaken Conservatives...

Build the fence and enforce the law. PERIOD.

That does not include changing the law to include amnesty of any kind.
It is all y'all that are not far-seeing.
I have seen this all before.

Sniping?  I am NOT objecting to him building a wall.  What I am objecting to is his mention of amnesty and his offer of protection to DACA.

I think everyone realizes @Emjay he doesn't have a magic want and can't do the impossible; otherwise he would have turned Pelosi into a frog and Chuckie into a toad.

   Turtles love frogs and flies but in the spirit of bipartisanship McConnell would suddenly become a vegetarian.

Nope, and I am beginning to think I need a self-imposed time out from this board because apparently only a few people here want to face reality.



@Emjay

Good luck on that one! I have been damn few places other than the army where reality was even allowed to visit.
