Wikipedia has an article called The Great Hedge of India. It was a barrier for collecting taxes. The Chinese also had a man-made natural barrier called The Willow Palisade.
Republicans in Congress never tried to fund the wall, not even when they had complete control.
Yeah! Yeah, that’s an excellent observation.
When Trump entered office, pubs in the Senate and Congress were solidly in the camp of the dems, and to an extent still are. Back then, they half expected (hoped) Trump would not be in office long.
Trump needs to actively involve himself and his famous tweets to primary out these RINOs and gain the house back. If he can, his 2nd term will be when he moves mountains.
Trumps achilles heel is his family. Threats against his family have stopped him dead in his tracks. The wall needs to be built by other means. His entire organization, his family, are held hostage by the deep state. What good he can do is in public relations.
That is a absolute lie.
Lies like this should be banned from FR.
Exactly right. It is logical to presume that the previous poor quality fence was built in high high traffic areas, deteriorated and needed replacement. A sensible planner would rebuild dilapidated sections in high traffic areas first, then move to areas where the traffic diverted after securing those bad sections.
While all of us would have liked 2,900 miles of new fence in four years, many posters have already pointed out all the multitude of enemies on this side of the fence thwarting that.
“How is this anything other than the fault of the GOPe?”
While the GOPe was complicit, Obama appointed judges were a pain here, too.
Bush League Republicans MUST become extinct before the Republic does.
Flimsey Grahamnesty is STILL working to give the Democrats a permanent majority with amnesty for illegal aliens.
He has been working on it since 2006 and made it the centerpiece of his Senate career and will consider it his greatest achievement.
We get the same Crap over Pain Meds. CDC Director Robert Redfield whose on 37 yr old son is a Heroin addict who survived a OD of Heroin/Fenatayl and Suboxone Clinic owner addiction Shrink Andrew Kolodny spewed Lies lumped all Opioid Deaths in together. The Started a campaign of Propaganda and DEA set up arrest of doctors, pharma, ins, and pharmacies. Soft Targets.
While they showed the addicted babies and dead college kids parents crying. NOTHING about Pain Patients. We are being TORTURED at the level of Hanoi Hilton, Japan, and Germany POW camps. 92% of Cancer patients are sent home on freaking Tylenol. Not even in the last 6 months can they get more than 60 Mg now called MME of Morphine. When they require 150 MG. They might get addicted. They have 6 months to life IDIOTS. They are Debriding burn victims with NO PAIN Meds.
You can’t believe a word you read from so called conservative publications any more, all they do is LIE.
Gee I wonder why?
“Disallow any funding, then blame the President. Typical leftist garbage.”
Well stated. But this is a good example of how the media is trying to drive a wedge between Trump and his supporters. They know that’s the ONLY CHANCE they have to be rid of Trump by 2020.
Since the old fence wasn’t really a fence but just a bunch of junk you can walk right past, the difference is unimportant.
You can’t build a Fence when you have an Army of Dems and Judges lying in the way
The administration makes excuses but end of day zero new miles. There is funding but 30 months in they are still getting ready to start. Sounds like Obama’s shovel ready projects. Why is Trump repeating the same?
What lie? The report is by administration officials. I thought I had read elsewhere months back that there was some new fence but even then it was minimal. The latest reports by the administration seem to clarify that no, only replacement work has been accomplished so far. If you think this is a lie, where is new fence where there wasn’t any? Specifics please as I’d love to agree with you that the latest administration report is wrong.
Some basic facts:
She is well fed..that is for sure...
Liberals just can’t handle that DJT is well liked, and will have five plus years remaining in his terms...
Hope he begins a NEW NETWORK when he is out of office...It for sure will jump instantly to #1..
