Trump could have just stopped talking about the wall. Nobody really would have questioned it.
It's was a disaster entirely of his own making.

Hell like you said he could have ignored the issue and been like elect me in 2020 for that wall. I just didn't get to it because of all the other great shyt I was busy doing.

Never seen someone dig their own grave like this.

After this I wouldn't be surprised now if he doesn't run in 2020. They're trying to make war with Venezuela and maybe they are hoping that will save them but no one is on board with that shyt.

Help me refute this please. I’m Using you guys as a shortcut in a debate.
Many of those things are included in his proposal along with the border wall. And a wall is not “old technology.” That’s an absurd talking point as various forms of fencing and walls are still effectively used to protect many homes, buildings and borders around the world.

Everything is of his own making, every single thing. If he just sat on his hands and watched TV he could've coasted through 4 years.

But thank God for Kushner, if he never convinced Trump to fire Comey none of these bytch ass intelligence agencies would've done a thing.

The statement is correct to me. There are types walls around the world that work.

The Wall is already cut threw and dug under. Most illegal immigrants come by plane. If the US wanted to prevent illegal immigrants, we'd implement e-verify and fine businesses. For instance, USCIS would be fining Trump's golf courses for those illegal immigrants he just fired.

What every American should be asking themselves right now is this: what is the evidence that our border is so unsafe that it constitutes a crisis and the need to #BuildTheWall? Evidence that would be needed to support such a claim are that...

(A) there has been a dramatic increase in people crossing our border over time, (B) there is an increase in crime with an increase in immigration, and immigrants commit more crimes than those within our borders, and/or (C) current strategies for border security are ineffective.

In sum, there is NO EVIDENCE that there is a border crisis that requires building a wall. The number of immigrants coming into the US are decreasing, and they are not causing any upticks in crime. A wall is an unnecessary feature and would be a total waste of taxpayer money.

even cites sources. :salute:

good way to show why this is not a national emergency or any kind of emergency for that matter when put in context.

"the wall" is clearly a symbol to racists and those who feel slighted or frightened by immigrants/immigration. very similar to the symbolic intent of the rebel flag.

nikkas get robbed every day b.

The most basic argument against the BS line of thinking of everyone has walls because walls work is that every place that was ever broken into had walls. If someone is determined enough to get into a place a wall won't stop them.

Anything he says plays well to his base. If he stop talking about it they'd stop caring just like when he quit the lock her up talk they moved on to other things.

He had gone quiet. Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh called him out on it and that's why we had the shutdown. Otherwise this bill would have quietly passed a month ago.
