It’s now or never.
This lame duck session is it.
He must veto any bill that does not provide border money.

Trump's got the wall.

Chuck Schumer is already being roasted by the Left because he's offering $1.6 billion.

The fact that Chuck even brought that up to the table shows how weak his hand is.

That's why the leftist media has largely ignored the rush at the border because it completely proves Trump point. Already, some of these so-called migrants realized they've been used and are now going back home.

Trump is simply a mind-blowing, brilliant negotiator and political tactician that I have ever seen in my political lifetime.

If there is a partial shutdown, he ought to use the opportunity to hollow out the Department of Energy, the Department of Education, the State Department, a good part of the Pentagon, and the EPA. No money, no jobs. They won’t be missed.

A mushroom goes into a bar and the bartender yells “we don’t serve your kind here!!!”

And the mushroom says “Why not? I’m a fun guy!”

Sorry.

Lest we forget what Cryin’ Chuckie agreed to early this year in January:

Schumer made Trump an offer to authorize upward of $20 billion for his border wall in exchange for protecting recipients of DACA. Then Schumer rescinded the offer. Trump jabbed back:

“Cryin’ Chuck Schumer fully understands, especially after his humiliating defeat, that if there is no Wall, there is no DACA. We must have safety and security, together with a strong Military, for our great people!” Trump tweeted.

All I can say is build the wall as down the road we will need it more than ever as more and more people will try to escape from some of those socialistic inspired paradises (hell holes) further down south. And forget about those ignorant socialist-liberals as well as rinos in Congress.

The wall is good, but legislative restrictions on immigration can’t be torn down.

What I don’t get is threatening that while only asking for a measly $5B. I’m surprised he isn’t asking for $20B while being ready to settle for $10B, at least.

I always liked “stupid” jokes like those. :)

Let others think they’re stupid.

Simple minded folks like me like them!
