While I get that people in Montana are probably more likely to be among that 35% than people in other states, it seems pretty unlikely that the people who do support it, are voting R anyway.

The fact that her objection to it seems to be, "Trump promised he'd pay for it, but he's not doing that," is a little gross, especially from a blue state Democrat.

Apparently Majorian confused this thread with the intellectual cesspool that is the dems are a waste. Though seeing how only about 3 people post there I dont get how that confusion came about.

Trump takes any kind of attack personally and does not like to seem weak similar to how N. Koreas Military is so basically N. Korea's posturing of firing a missile at Guam will in fact cause a retaliatory response from Trump.

Kale posted:That guy doesn't know the first thing about deescalating anything. There's zero sign he's even remotely capable of such a concept. He only knows the big loud rear end in a top hat schtick and how to spew rhetoric and bile. Again for some reason America decided to make the equivalent of your average poo poo spewing forum troll it's leader and representation to the world. That's the part that'll stick with me after thus experiment is over and that it'd probably vote any given celebrity into any sort of public office regardless of qualification again Imagine if Canada's electoral system was skewed so Alberta had an outsized influence on the PM election and they elected Ralph Klein's corpse.

ITT Majorian supports radically open borders with no walls anywhere. Once again showing that the left's only consistent position is that they don't like the democrats.

As far as I can tell your chief objection is his rhetoric not his votes. From Democrats in marginal states I don't care about rhetoric, I only care about voting record.

There a few in Montana. Also the question is kinda vague "Question: Would you support or oppose building a wall along the border with Mexico?" Could easily be interpreted as a wall along the entire border which basically nobody expects. Also seems to ignore the fact there is already a wall.

That article title is a straight up lie, to my knowledge. All the article says is that Trump wanted McCabe gone last month. There's nothing regarding Trump's reaction to the raid this morning.

It actually is a terrible idea because on top of being aggressively racist its also useless when we could be spending money on actually good infrastructure that is very needed, so no, this is an asinine argument.
