Poor little Ronnie, he’s just too dumb to be President. Good thing we found out before 2028.

LMAO

The border was under control when Trump was in office, and
if the rules on the books today were enforced, there would
be no problem. I do get a kick out of your slant on it
though.

I’m confused.

If that post you replied to up there was true, why am I surrounded by them right now?

DeSantis will formally unveil his border security policy on Monday in Eagle Pass, Texas. “We will secure the border...We will stop the invasion. NO EXCUSES. @RonDeSantis will get it done,”

Landmines?

You have to move where there's lots of snow.

That keeps 'em out.

The border has never been under control under any president, that is the problem. Covid helped stop illegals and terrorism. Going back to the new nafta argument, what were the top 5 points that trump got done with new nafta to stop illegals? Great talking point if there is one.

Too many here mock Trump’s accomplishments and intrepid persistence to deliver on his promises while forgetting/ignoring the Establishment’s continuous assault on his Presidency.

I appreciate DeSantis’ determination on building a wall on the southern border. Trump had the same determination. Trump tried and actually managed to build several hundred miles of wall. However, Trump had the Democrats, Republicans, Courts, media, and especially the unseen and unacknowledged “deep-state” all working against him on the issue. Should DeSantis be elected President, I wish him the best in getting it done. Of course, at the same time he will be facing the accusations of being a “Nazi” and “worse than Trump”. I’m sure they also have a unique opposition plan in the works that has been created just for DeSantis. He think he is facing criticism now, just wait until the left really goes after him!

The media framed it as a “racist” wall that Trump was building against the will of the voters and only because he hated minorities. The Court’s basically ruled he didn’t have the authority to spend the money to do such a thing, which was quite the opposite of their rulings on Biden and his authority to control both the border and the money allocated to do so.

In effect, the Courts have ruled there is a “Trump exception” to all laws and regulations. The media has backed up that narrative by helpfully explaining that only governmental alphabet agencies had the authority to impose any border allowances or restrictions when Trump was President. However now, that that Biden is in the White House it is totally the decision of the President (or something along those lines). I’m sure you understand their reasoning.

The “Trump exception” is now precedent and can be used against any GOP President.

Yup. People like Reno89519 fail to research the facts or are Adam Schiff surrogates spewing lib misinformation. Responding to him is like talking to your typical leftist.

Trump did get the problem under control. Illegals were being
held in place in Mexico.

The ‘missing person’ we have in there now is letting them
all in. I don’t care what you say, Trump had that border
under the best control in decades.

The problem is, very few people in Congress really give a
hoot over the issue. I don’t care how good a president is,
he/she can’t tighten down the ship if no one backs him at
the upper levels of our government.

He did an amazing job considering.

As I recall, and corrections cheerfully entertained, Mister Trump's wall was falling way, way behind; and it was none other than Ann Coulter who drew attention to the lapses, and made a public issue.

An embarrassed Trump (still, IIRC) then put more energy into the process, getting much of it accomplished by 2020.

I don't see the incomplete wall as anything other than a participation ribbon for Mister Trump.

You can no longer search for any of the independent groups that try to keep track of illegal aliens that are crossing into our nation. All “google” or other search engines simply send you to hit pieces by the SPLC or articles by the NYTs and WaPo denigrating conservatives for their hatred of immigrants. They will not even name the sites so you can go and review the information yourself, but simply call them conservative “hate sites”.

I was looking for a graph that I had looked at recently showing the increase in illegal border crossings since Biden took office, and although I believe I remember the name of the site from which I saw the graph, even a search of that site’s name and the words “illegal immigration” returns no results other than leftist sites. That is true for Google, Brave, and Duck-duck-go.

Young people are now dependent on search engines for their information regarding basic facts. All facts are now slanted to the leftist view and have been now for several years. Therefore, the youth are never introduced to an opposing view in basic research.

For instance, the description of “NumbersUSA” on Google is
“NumbersUSA is an anti-immigration advocacy organization”. No slant there, of course.

Those search engines insist they use unbiased algorithms Yeah, right.

Please, not a single politician would be talking about the border if it wasn’t for Trump, PERIOD.

This guy is running the worst campaign I’ve seen, I’m this other guy you all like but better, is NOT a winning strategy.
