Sorry but... Why would our party be against protecting our borders? Our congressional leaders are working their butts off trying to establish funding for proper border security so I don’t think this is a very constructive opinion to give.

You shouldn't have started by assuming Donald Trump ever actually describes reality, except by accident. For decades he's just said out loud what he wished was true, and then paid people to lie to him that it already was. By this point he can't interact with the world any other way.

Trump good, not-Trump bad, therefore Democrats must want migrants to kill half the United States through violence and the other half through disease.

Remaining sections ie the entire loving border

About 30% of the border is fenced, but a lot of it has gaps and a lot of it is just vehicle barriers that you could step over easily.

If he is going off his speeches, 100% of the existing wall would have to be replaced unless he thinks you can renovate a chain-link fence into a wall.

How many times can the markets rise on hope of a deal with China and collapse later when they release it was all a lie? Its literally happened a dozen or two times this year.

Speaking of cement, remember when it came out that when the mob made all the cement workers strike and the only building that was the exception was Trump Tower(still being constructed)? Also, the significant number of high profile mobsters who bought apartments in Trump Tower in straight cash once it was completed.

Is this rhetorical? Or are you honestly asking how often wall st is willing and able to act irrationally.

Because boy do I have news for you on the latter.

Yes, but it’s literally the White House sending out messages like today that a deal is coming or progress is being made and it’s almost definitely not true. This collapse last week occurred because two trump advisers got caught in their lie and gave two wildly different stories of the status of China negotiations. Combine this with the fed being either bullied by the White House or worse and the markets are clearly being manipulated.

There are a lot of things the military could do in that regard, but the government would be sued by private companies for competing with them.

And yet the president can apparently erect tariffs that will kill those construction companies dead, so I guess we found ourselves a loophole/bargaining chip.

I know it was naive of me to think it wasn’t being manipulated for so long but it’s just so painfully obvious Trump and his cohorts are robbing the market right now.

Yes. The dad has a shotgun attached on the rail of his rifle too. I guess he is looking to breach some rooms soon. All of that tacticool poo poo is expensive as hell. The money wasted on that poo poo could have gone to something more productive.

lol my first girlfriend's dad had one of these. He made me fill out a survey that had questions like "Do you own a van?" and I was like "Hi, I'm fourteen years old?" Fatherhood is so hosed up in toxic masculinity.

Dirty Harry actually had logical consequences for Harry's breaking the rules and loving up. It's oddly nuanced in places compared to 1980s vigilante cop movies.
