What thread was pulled?   Obviously, they're really into that censorship BS....

still.

 **nononono*

Yup JimRob pulled it himself.  His reason is kinda funny and childish at the same time.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

I knew Trump was going to be a 'Hail Mary Pass',  but I figured it was our only shot,  either he was going to succeed, or turn out to be like you said he'd be, or he'd be well-intentioned, but the Establishment in both parties would sabotage him. 

I still think it was worth the risk in the end, and it could still work out.  These next few weeks will be critical.   But I will say, even if Trump is considered a failure, he still planted some seeds that may ultimately bear fruit, even if it's after he's out of office.

Seeds like what?   Care to elaborate?

I'm still trying to find out why he pulled it.  What reason did he call it garbage?    :shrug:

@XenaLee he's calling it garbage because like here...there were people saying Trump caved.  The thread wasn't a continuation of Hannity's spin job on his radio show this afternoon...not enough fawning posts like our own LegalAmerican happening after 165+ posts so he shut it down.

Holy crap.   Soooo glad that BS was left behind there, and isn't here.   Thank God.   :0001:

No such thing as freedom of speech, tolerance of differing opinions and presenting opposing views there.... very totalitarian in nature...and thus, very damned leftist, IMO.

@Sanguine   Trump making a decision to end the shutdown, which, rightly or wrongly, was hurting his cause is not going along to get along.

It's living to fight another day.  I think Trump rightly decided he could get nothing done during a shut down.

It is totally in our interest to support Trump, even if we don't like him and even if we disagree with some things he does.

He is our border, our boundary against the truly evil people on the other side.

Sorry, @Emjay, he's going to have to prove it now.  He screwed up bigly, perhaps fatally.

@XenaLee

That's my first time dipping my toe back into any political discussion there since I got my soft ban for sticking up for Mark Levin in the Levin Lounge back in 2016.  I'm surprised it wasn't reinstated after that one single post.

Joe Pags said Trump's already done a lot of good, some of us have his back. Others are gloating as if a great failure occurred, we will see.

Yeah.... for some reason, I haven't even been tempted to post again there.... despite peeking in to see what's up.  That's not normally "like me"...lolol.

His promise about the wall was the cornerstone of what got him elected.  He's caved. It IS a great failure.

   The prevalence of I told you so's today (mine included) being confused with 'Glee' in this Great loss for our Country we all just experienced reflects truly on you Trumpers always just blaming someone else for your problems.
   It's SAD really.

Not gonna fly, @TomSea.  For many of us, the border is and was the existential issue.  Sure looks like he blew it.

I hope he gets this done, but I fear that window may be closing.
As a resident of a border state, border security is a paramount concern of mine.
Not gloating, but I am disappointed.
Seems to have started a bit of an AT/NT flame war again.

What I've wondered is why they didn't get this done when they had a house majority, someone dropped the ball and they should have gotten even some of the middle of road Senate Republicans to vote for it (Murkowski, Collins, etc.)

 @GrouchoTex

Me too, I admit.
I just couldn't stomach being called a Hillary- loving NT today, when I actually wanted better security along the border.
I'm not the one who didn't get that done.

We will see, and I will be ecstatic to eat my words if I'm proven wrong.  Unfortunately, I don't think I will be, and I'm really disappointed.

Reagan is proof that statement is true...it isn't "pablum"...we haven't had a truly conservative President since Regan left office.

His track record on the economy and what he did to bring this country from the brink after 4 years of Carter is undeniable.  The effects of his economic polices alone carried into the Clinton and Bush 43 presidencies.

@txradioguy  Liberals say the only problem with communism is it has never truly been tried.  I wouldn't care to dissuade them of that notion either, and so I'll just agree that Reagan was arguably the greatest President of our lifetimes and move on.

Maybe if some Congresscritter's wives start getting gang-raped by MS-13 types, things will change.   But fat chance of that since they all live comfortably in their gated communities.

I don't live in a gated community, but none of my family has been gang raped by MS-13 types either.

I'll give you a Once-Ler as a possible but not the others. Do you have any quotes from the others to say that?

All I see is a confirmation of what they expected Trump to do and hoping he wouldn't. That's not popping the cork celebrating.

You can't see what you refuse to look for!  You asked me who and I told you.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
