Look at it this way: if Trump is doing a better than you at describing what he wants 2 or 5 billion for and you can't tell me what your actually going to do with 20 billion for "foreign aid", there's a problem there. I'll give it a 50/50 chance of happening.

__________________________________________________ _________________________ Limited research again, but this was an appraisal I heard this morning on CNN about post-shutdown Trump: "His popularity fell even furthur... he comes out of this much weaker ... with much less ability to move forward" __________________________________________________ _________________________ And finally, just a couple of the most obvious shortcomings to a border wall that Trump is failing to address:- "It's a tunnel... where we have a wall already" >> Other probs relate to eminent terrain land purchase and the stats on where and how immigrants and drugs arrive in the US: for drugs, mainly the coasts, the controlled crossing points and airports, and in the case of illegal immigrants, the Canadian border is actually more porous. That's how Melania started working in the US without the requisite permissions I believe. Even if that's not true, the overall figures will mitigate strongly against Trump's notion that there is a national emergency at the southern border, especially as illegal border crossings there are close to a historical low at the moment. Trump's wall is a non-solution to a non-problem.

I don't know anything about that, so I'd have to read up on it to know if I agreed with your version of what happenend. Either way, a bad democrat plan does not make an entirely different bad Trump plan better.

Being at a "record low" doesn't mean it isn't a problem. He's going to have to bring some some compelling information outside of the mainstream narrative on that subject to justify an emergency. We have all kinds of problems: there's no precedent to calling something an emergency just to wiggle around a stalemate.
One angle he has could be in relations to taxes. Illegal immigrants pay in around 12 billion a year in various ways, but get paid out nearly double that. But the wall doesn't do anything about that (seeing as they're already here), so his only argument is one of deterrence. Going back to Lisna for a minute... Quote:
I could be like some of these people and whine about Trump all day on Twitter. But my response to Democrats is "Okay, great we can agree he's being a dick....so ****ing do something about it instead of flying off for a beach vacation while hundreds of thousands of your constituents can't pay their bills".

I almost wanted to feel good about the Democrats for once but I killed that feeling with a horny Catholic priest and a broken glass condom. Still shocked they didn't roll over.
