Wall Status, build a wall

[dawp]

That's why cheeto and company are stopping it in other ways:

Unless you're of a certain persuasion, then more are welcome:

ya gotta love breitbard:

Meanwhile, predictably, conservative website Breitbart has reacted negatively to Ryan’s efforts, calling it “amnesty to Irish illegals” and claiming it will “outsource many thousands of U.S. college graduate jobs to Irish graduates.”

that is not what visas are

Don’t immigrate here illegally?

Care to try and sell that shit to your great great grandpa?

If I shake your family tree hard enough, an anchor baby WILL fall out.

$5 billion just to rile up his base and keep them in his corner. Yeh, that's sounds about right. So then the next $5 billion shutdown threat from Trump comes around the time that the current stop gap measure is about to expire and this goes on and on and on until Trump has his spiked slat "barrier" up coast to coast?

Is that the plan? Really? And all of it as a way for Trump to keep his base fed with very expensive red meat that the rest of us must pay for but actually it's somehow Mexico in some sneaky way AFTER Trump leaves office?

Goddam Trump is a genius I tell ya's.

Don’t immigrate here illegally?

Or maybe stop finding new ways to make legal immigration illegal?
Or better yet, why don't we stop spending money to destabilize foreign governments which in turn causes these refugee crises?

what kind of crazy logic is that?

I’m fine with that.

How about a big moat?

With sharks in it?

With frickin laser beams on their heads?

Technically, Mexico could indirectly pay for the wall if we used seized cartel money.

We don't have jurisdiction to seize cartel money. Your boy made the promise, let him cough it up and then he can have his fucking wall. What are you saying, stupid enough to believe that sleezebag?? What, he lied to you? Boo fucking hoo.

When the Mexican check clears start your damned construction

$5 billion would only get us ill-tempered sea bass.

It's even worse.

Trump wants the shutdown so he can steal the pay from 400+K workers and use it for his monument.

I can't legally say what needs to happen.

I assume that's what he means by "shutdown money"?..wtf!

Ineffective and a waste of money so tear it down? I’m not really following. How is it a PR nightmare? Unless you are advocating for open borders why would a wall being there (that you say is not even effective) matter or be a PR nightmare?

So dishonest. I thought you were a Bernie fan, right?

Haha no never been a Bernie fan, far from it.

You never seem to tire of telling us how he was cheated by Crooked Hillary.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

Why would they do that? Unless open borders is their goal.

Because it won’t get funded to be maintained

Sharks with freaking lasers on their heads

We could blast it out with thermonuclear explosives, right down to sea level all the way across. It'll only be a few thousand feet deep at the Arizona/ New Mexico/ Mexico border. Piece o' cake. We can breed the giant sharks while the area cools off enough to support life. Fuck them Panamanians and the canal they stole from us.

I had always assumed that Trump meant that Mexico will pay the wall through the trade deals he negotiated. I hate being the smartest person on AT P&N sometimes. Do you really think he meant that Mexico was going to simply write us a check?

No need to assume, that's what Trump explicitly stated.

But how smart can you be, to have thought it was actually happening, or could happen?
Fact is it did not, and now without Congress you'll never see Mexico "pay" for it.

the memes for the wall drawing are amazing

Let me get this right... you think those memes are "amazing"?

This this you?

He has said Mexico would transfer the money directly to the US and be happy doing so.

@Jaskalas post #46 explains it well.

I see that the Dunning Kruger effect is alive and well. Slow touts himself as the most intelligent poster and then proceeds to be preposterously stupid.
