NOW are folks willing to believe what I’ve been telling them about McConnell?
He is the wrong man at the wrong place at the wrong time.
He and Ryan had literally the opportunity of a lifetime, and muffed it for two years.
Those two years should go down in history as the official beginning of the end of our nation.
I do not think one man, even as president, can pull this nation back from the brink.

Mitch has been in DC to long. His spine is gone. He just wants to be everyone’s friend (puppet). Branson personal values. His political positioning is the same as a fallen leaf in a tornado.
We need to adopt the DemoKKKrat approach. Take what you can get, every time you can get it.
Then come back and ask for more.
Trump, Jesus-like, can take a few bread and fishes of Wall funding and turn it into much, much more.
Build 55 miles, then build 55 more. Then 200 more.
He had 25 billion over 10 years last spring, in December 1.3-1.6. He has now?
So it’s a crap sandwich. Trump can show that by a veto. Will he? And can he get something better through congress?
That 25B was tied to Trump’s DACA/Immigration reform deal. Remember Trump’s DACA EO tasking congress with fixing DACA in six months? What killed the 25B deal was the court ruling reinstating DACA after Trump’s OE. Trump appealed that court decision to SCOTUS.
Trump has explained this many times.
Behind the smokescreen Trump keeps chipping away at the wall. 200-300 miles of new wall has been built. A new stretch in TX is starting right now. Trump has said, because of natural barriers, we could need as little as 700 miles of wall. In other words the wall is about half done.
Blaming Trump for not taking the 25B from last January is a FAKE NEWS lie of omission aimed at getting Trump supporters to question him. Don’t fall for it!
I would like to know where the “unprotected” areas will be and of it’s because of terrain or whatever. What is the final goal? Where will be be next November?
I don’t know the answers. What I do know is that behind the media churn wall is getting built. People on Twitter have put up video of new wall.
In order to avoid being a Twit, I don’t Tweet.
You are missing out, there is an amazing amount of great information on Twitter.
you’re missing out on life
It is a horrible deal but I really didn’t expect much from the R’s in congress to begin with, they are horrible negotiators. Other than the tax cut and judges they are been utterly useless in the majority for the last two years. They are never on offense and play horrible defense. McConnell is trying to dress this turd up as much as possible and Trump will sign it. And Trump will use this to beat the Democrats about the head in 2020 as the open borders and anti-law and order party which will help in his re-election and if re-elected even more conservative judges on the bench, McConnell’s only redeeming value thus far.
The real fun will begin if Trump signs this CR and then continues to prep the battlefield for the National Emergency declaration. The leftist GOP congress critters as well as the Dims will go banana’s and that will hurt the GOP’s congressional efforts in 2020 with the base and for sure from any Trump Democrat and independent voters and they will be bringing that upon themselves by opposing the NE declaration.
How would you know?
Well...
Our judges would have been negatively impacted, but there is so much more to Mitch’s job.
He’s allowed Trump’s appointments to simply go unaddressed in many instances. Trump has many appointments languishing over half-way through his first term.
Now Mitch thinks it might be a good idea for the nuclear option.
What’s the hurry Mitch?
