    Where've you been, that's the standard since 2012 and it predates Donald Trump. One of the things I've consistently complained about, besides the congress's obsession with the international community is their reluctance to actually do something meaningful for us(on both left/right)

    I cannot take credit for the 'eating of the chess pieces' thing...

    It could have been the same person quoted in my signature..... who knows? So many former Trump aides know he's essentially a toddler...

    Corruption is what the tyrant King Biden is doing at the border. Read Trump's Lips, no more money for processing illegal immigrants. Build the wall! Texas is showing just how feckless Biden's government is. As Texans say, Biden is all hat and no cattle. Yankees go home! Liberals have screwed up the North East but they will not take down Texas.

    You HAVE to know that this little bit of razor wire hasn't stopped a single person from entering Texas illegally, right??

    And yet, it's the hill Texas wants to die on??

    It would be so much more helpful if they became part of the solution intead of creating more problems for everybody. But that's not the way the MAGA brain functions

    You still get the blame when IT gets pissed about the keyboard! Lol!
    With Trump it's hard to distiguish between calculated and moronic moves.

    Also, I have to question the theory that various non-Texans are 'all hat and no cattle'.... Do you know what HAPPENS to most cattle?

    You have no evidence at all of the deterence capabilities and who may or may not have been deterred. And there is no one thing that solved this issue. But razor wire, amd a wall, are solid and effective parts of a much larger plan.

    I don't find it too difficult at all.... I assume the latter always... most of the people who have worked for him have never seen the former...

    You have a point. Despite big dutiful wall , and all the money Mexico paid for it, America without single undocumented immigrant in USA, Biden took office and destroyed everything. Biden is worse POTUS.

    Oh Wait

    Trump didn’t build the wall.

    Mexico didn’t pay for the wall.

    Trump didn’t send back all the undocumented immigrant back to their country.


    Come again, why we can’t blame trump ?



    I do give one credit to Trump – finally Trump made republican “Open Border Republican” .

    You may not appreciate this, but as a liberal it likes our dream comes true. Republicans are for open border, republicans are debating if they are pro-choice or pro-life. Trump truly friend of Democrat!

    The real tragedy, Darth, is that nobody has done anything really intelligently useful about this horrific invasion of migrants ever since Barack Obama threw the border open completely, starting in 2014.

    Trump had a golden opportunity in 2017, but he pissed it away, choosing to spend billions on a laughably-ineffective 'wall' instead of declaring an emergency moratorium on ALL usual migration for an initial period of five years. He could easily have done this -- and justifiably, too -- especially in 2017 because he had a Republican-controlled House and Senate to back him up for TWO YEARS.

    Now what have we got? We've got wide-open borders, with 'migrants', welfare-seeking peasants, asylum-scammers, and criminals of every variety streaming in here by the hundreds of thousands. This is how Democrats increase their 'constituencies' -- and it's how Republicans look the other way and LET THEM! :lonely:

    Well.. I think we can end the entire border discussion.

    Democrats are for open border.

    Trump is for open border.

    Republicans are for open border.


    I can see Trump going campaign to campaign and say “Keep the border open and let America Pay for it

    Could you explain what policy Obama had that he opened the border ( was it closed before) in 2014?

    You’re right it should be an American issue. Bipartisan. That’s what the Senate was trying to negotiate.

    And Trump is using his influence to kill it - precisely because he doesn’t want “the other guy” to get the credit.

    As of now, all Trump supporters are in the “open borders” camp.

    You don’t consider Democrats and MAGA American? They all want Open border. Just 2 days ago trump said not to pass any bill which secure southern border. And you know Biden, he is always for open border.

    Clearly we can't control Washington in any way other than a nonbiased approach and vote them out.

    Can you do that?

    First of all, there is no guarantee Biden's handlers will keep their word.
    When Prez Reagan made a deal with the dem's, Ted (Hic) Kennedy scuttled all of the border protections before the ink was dry.
    All Biden has to do is enforce existing law. In the Trump years, the labor shortage got many poor off the couches and into the workforce, especially young blacks fresh out of high school.
    Todays open border is a compromise to protect the poor from work in exchange for a docile low end workforce subsidized by welfare.
    The democrats are kidding no one.

    May be you are right. Americans are for closed border, and secure the border.

    But

    Trump and MAGA – Keep the Border Open 2024!
