Senate Minority Leader-elect Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) told “Fox News Sunday” that he would oppose efforts to build a wall and pressed for comprehensive immigration instead, saying “this idea of a wall, we already passed.”

“And this idea of a wall, we already passed — John McCain and Chuck Schumer, bipartisan, an immigration bill that was comprehensive, that did a lot and was much tougher on the border than a wall would be,” Schumer said, referring to the failed immigration bill put forth by the Gang of Eight. …

What a turnaround from this ten years ago. But as some suspected back then, bait and switch.

When we convict the DNC as a RICO organization, we can confiscate its funds and use them to help build the wall.

“Oh, shut your cake hole, Chuckles. Your side lost, and all the pissin’ and moanin’ ain’t gonna change a thing.”

That might be good strategic advice for all the DNC.

If they keep running their sumps, we might get motivated enough to demand a full and complete ballot inventory/investigation.

The fraud uncovered will be systematic enough to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that it was a full DNC supported operation. All of them are guilty.

““this idea of a wall, we already passed.”

Really? then let’s pass it again. This time, higher, nastier and more dangerous than the other fictional wall you speak of.

How about tossing this democrap deep into Mexico and THEN building a wall to prevent his return? We need the wall. We need to divest ourselves of the millions of resource-gobbling disease bearing useless illegals. Where on EARTH is it written that we have to open our doors to every piece of flotsam and jetsam around the globe who decides to bypass our immigration system and moreover, treat them to housing, food, education, and medical care they have no right to claim? We need our financial, educational, housing, and medical resources for ourselves FIRST-—hard working taxpayers, veterans, and the elderly. Not freeloading bums who multiply like rabbits spewing out “anchor babies” WE have to support. And another top priority, besides the fence, should be the concrete erasure of this “anchor baby” garbage. No more “anchor babies”.

Schmucky is showing an unusual determination to guarantee that white working class people and a lot of other former Democrats are NOT coming back. Go Schmucky!

If a President can merely by EO, “defer” deportations for huge categories of illegal immigrants, I suspect another President can upgrade border control equipment and procedures.

If we already passed it, let’s start building it.
