Just like you wouldn't call a person struggling with his weight, "a fat slob," because the insult immediately diverts the conversation from the goal. With one little word, trump managed to wipe out any semblance of goodwill he's built up over the last couple of months. Just like he can't shake the perception that he's an unmitigated moron. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdnlng Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 If Trump didn't call certain countries shitholes then he should have. Our country was built on the backs of people striving to make it better and reflect our values. We don't need to bring people here who don't respect those values. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 My Prime Minster grandstanded and welcomed everyone from Haiti who could get to the border last year, then there was no place for them and 92% were immediately deported back. But it was the thought that counts. And Haiti isn't a Commonwealth nation in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but we always made sure to make it absolutely clear how BAD and SHAMEFUL it is to get sick. We berated them about it and used vulgar language. Because we all know there are exactly two ways to deal with an issue. 1. Ignore it completely. 2. Scream belligerently at everyone until you get the attention you crave.

Albwan Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 The wall idea is stupid, it's not going to stop anything. To me it's just a smokescreen. The democrats are going to to get every single thing that they want and trump is going to screw his base into the ground, a slow four year burn.

"It won't stop thaaaammm!!!!!" You do know you can make that argument for all the measures we take to preserve our sovereignty. I mean, prisoners escape, illegal aliens sneak by agents all the time, etc. Even North Korea's border has people illegally cross it, and the deterrent there is a bullet. No deterrent is or security measure is 100% foolproof. But, your logic can apply to them all. Therefore, we should have no security measures. "Bullets won't stop thaaaaaammm!" I wonder if people really believe their argument opining a wall won't help ("work"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus when you are fighting the left who are trying to fill the country with democratic voters, it really seems like a losing cause any way you slice it.

Walls keep people out all the time!!! Why are prisons surrounded by walls if they work so poorly? Why do all these liberal billionaires erect walls around their compounds? That "walls no work" position is so !@#$ing asinine, I really don't think any person with a lick of common sense believes it. I think the planet would be a better place without people who make that argument. Man, if I was supreme leader of the planet. Wall only costs like .05% of the US yearly budget. Surely, we can build a fence to keep our neighbor's kids out for and only spend .05% of our yearly income. AI drones patrolling the border seem sensible. They need to be weaponized, though. How else will we reach Judgment Day? 0-Mexicans are rats, not people-0 I really think that analogy was poor and completely unnecessary. The people to people analogy works fine.

I guess those guards and security forces surrounding those walls have nothing to do with it then? Abandoned buildings are loaded with rats.
