Democrats to offer 5.7 Million for "Border Security" not Wall

[Lesh]

Trump has had a Republican Congress for two years.

He has had Dems offer 25 billion...and turned it down because he wanted MORE in that he wanted to curb LEGAL immigration.

He has been offered billions for border security...and turned that down.

This is on Trump and the Republicans

Twenty five billion, Lesh?

Hey, barkeep! I'll have what Lesh is havin'! He just turned $2.5 million into $25 billion!!! hehehe!!! Gimme his stockbroker's phone # too while yer at it!

It's not my fault that Trumpers are ignorant.

The immigration deal Trump should've taken, but didn't

 

[Claudette]

TRUMP turned it into this shit show. Dems have been offering border security money right along

Nah. Pelousy and UpChuck turned it into a shit show.

The shut down is costing more than the wall would.

You'll notice Pelousy took off on her vacation to the Ukraine, Italy and Afghanistan while the Government is shut down.

Doesn't appear to phase her at all and you can bet she doesn't give a shit about the out of work Fed employees either.

Oh and they need 5 Billion for the wall. Not 5.7 million. Give Trump the 5 billion and the Govt. reopens.

This shit show is on her.

Yes....trump DID say he would build a concrete wall....and MEXICO WILL PAY FOR IT!

Analysis | For years, Trump promised to build a wall from concrete. Now he says it will be built from steel.

Yes he did until he heard from the border agents that they needed steel barricades they could see through. And there are many ways Mexico can and will pay for upgrades to the barrier/wall. One obvious way is to add per a per vehicle duty for Mexican vehicles coming into the US.

Let's hope the Senate passes their versions of the funding deal to end the shutdown. There is a GOP version and a dem version. If neither passes McConnell should go nuclear for all Budget votes. These shutdowns need to end, and the Senate needs to stop allowing the minority to block budget Bills. If and when the minority gets to be the majority, they can push their budgets thru the same way.

Thread title: Democrats to offer 5.7 Million for "Border Security" not Wall

Panel: Democrats offering $5.7 billion for border security 'clearly a shift' in shutdown negotiations

Okay, Donnie....open the Government or look stupider than you are!

$5.7 million becomes $5.7 billion in the first thread. Then, $25 million becomes $25 billion. This thread is a weird place!!! Someone said marijuana messes with yer brain functions. And I thought it was the whiskey they're servin' around here!

You demmies and yer math.

​

Yeah...what is trump's excuse?

 

[Lesh]

The shit show began when Trump said he'd be proud to shut the government down.

Actually it began two years ago but that's another story

No....two far right nut cases pushed his orange button...

Yup....he said he would take the heat....but of course he is a serial liar. Now he walks away from his statements.....He is a DICK.

The simple fact that dems paid for walls in the recent past, but now refuse to fund them at all shows how phony they are. Talk about walking away from policies. The dems don't own the Budget or the Federal government and need to compromise. The fact that they refuse to meet Trump halfway, to fund more of a wall they recently funded, shows everyone how radical they are.
BTW, who are the dem's "experts" that say walls don't work? I haven't seen any border guards saying that?!
Walls Work

 

[Moonglow]

It goes up for a vote today or tomorrow..

Has to pass House and Senate before Trump gets it.

Doubt it will

 

[Moonglow]

Nobody cares if we don't have a cement Berlin wall. We need the existing barriers extended and improved along with all other aspects of border security. This is common sense and budgetary chump change. Pelosi turned it into a shit show with her ridiculous and indefensible "Walls Are Immoral".

At this point I surmise that both sides leadership sucks...

Blah...Blah....Blah

The irony of the situation is trump is shutting down the government in order to grant a campaign promise...while essentially the longest shutdown in US history may foretell the doom of trump's political future...along with the future of many Republican law makers.

In an effort to please his far right cult members...he may have cooked his goose.

IF the DEMs take congress/senate and presidency in 2020 I wonder if we'll see the NG tearing down the existing walls/barriers etc?

But not a ******* dime for any form of wall/barrier you moron!
Nancy wants the money to be spent of "electronic dogs".
Go ask CNN's Jim Acosta how well 'walls' work. HAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

 

[deanrd]

Just saw Nancy Pelosi on TV say she was optimistic about the goodness of the Republicans in the Senate.

Isn’t that hilarious?

Good Republicans?

What does that even mean?

The shutdown is a political stunt....a stunt that is torturing thousands of people.

Voters will remember who said they would be "proud" to shut down the government. Voters will remember who told Chuck...."this will be on me."

Border security is essential, even though it is also a campaign promise.
The dems funded the wall in the recent past, so their change of position has no basis but rigid partisan politics.
Trumps political future will unfold in due time. No need to predict, we know how the 2016 predictions turned out don't we?
Lets hope 2020 will turn out like 2016...

5.7 BILLION FOR BORDER SECURITY!
