The Democrats denounced Trump when he said we're pulling out of Syria.
So, could he use Syria as a bargaining chip for the wall?
"We'll stay in Syria to defend whatever you Democrats (and never-Trump neocons) think needs defending, but in return you must allow America to defend its own border with a secure border wall?"
Order them to apply the Hungarian solution
No need for Nancy.
NO
Ridiculous!
You see how the Democrats give us nothing?
That’s how it’s done.
Who is “we”?
Are you volunteering to deploy to that $#!+hole and do you have a mouse in your pocket?
How about move the troops from Syria to the southern border with ole Mexico?
No negotiation with the idiots. They capitulate, or nothing.
Why do we want to illegally occupy Syria when we are being destroyed across our southern border & from within?
There is no connection between the two.
We want to get out of Syria.
Trump should tell the Donks that each day they don’t fund the wall not only is the government still shut down but his demands for funding the wall will increase by $1 Billion.
That’s the way to negotiate.
I would issue an Executive Order that deports all politicans who are against the wall to Mexico.
Then spread the rumor they are there to combat the Cartels.
Actually, we should stop worrying about illegal immigrants. The more important job is stopping the spread of ISIS in the civil war in Syria. As anyone with any knowledge of military tactics knows, all good defensive lines are multi-echelon. We need to build a rear line in our defensive plan against ISIS. Now where would be a good place? How about along our border with Mexico. That should work fine. No need to go to Congress for funding; just take it out of the spending allocated for the war against ISIS.
No negotiation with the idiots. They capitulate, or nothing.

Right on!
No need to go to Congress for funding; just take it out of the spending allocated for the war against ISIS.
Brilliant. Since the Iraq War, no president has gone back to Congress to authorize any of their new military initiatives against terrorism, wherever they happened. So why should an anti-terrorism initiative on our Southern Border be different? If we didn’t need Congressional authorization to go into Syria to defend this country, why would Trump need Congress’s approval to build a border wall against ISIS infiltration here?
Can Trump keep the government going at 75%? The debt service is priority #1 and defense #2. As we edge closer to destabilizing the debt service, Trump will have the absolute obligation to protect the nation’s creditworthiness which undergirds his responsibility as CIC. This requires him to move money around. SCOTUS can’t force him to sign a budget.
We will have a wall and a smaller government. The Dems asked for a fight, thus is what we’ll get.
Is Syria part of the United States? F*ck Syria.
