When Trump and family assets are confiscated and they are taken to jail it should be said to them: "Don't worry, it's just a little pain for the greater good of the country. Thanks for your sacrifice."concordtom said:She's bold.bearister said:
With regard to the tRump Shutdown, Lara Trump characterized workers as going through "a little bit of pain." But she said the pain is "for the future of our country and their children and their grandchildren." She insisted that "generations after them will thank them for their sacrifice right now." She went on to recount the pain she herself had to endure after a monthly distribution check from tRump University was late arriving and she had to cancel her pedicure, massage, body parts bleaching and empathy class appointments.
Were I questioning her, I would have followed up with a question along the lines of:
"So, since you are so committed to this plan of sacrifice for the greater good, would you be willing to also put your money where your mouth is? That is, how much are YOU going to contribute to the fund to support this collective effort?"
She could donate money either directly to the wall construction fund or to the unpaid workers fund.
I didn't end the baseball game, you did. I will happily give you back your ball if you let me pitch. It's you that's stopping the game. All you have to do is say yes I can pitch. This is your fault. Why is it so hard for you to say yes? Look how reasonable I am being.oski003 said:
Other immigration loopholes can be filled in place of a wall. Babies born on U.S. soil should not automatically be citizens. Those seeking asylum should do so at embassies, not inside of the U.S.
The question is, "what do you do with someone who is illegally in your country?"
Before Trump, I don't believe most of America know that those entering the U.S. illegally were set free inside of our borders. Current immigration law is broken. Building a wall simplifies the issue. It also is a stance saying, "we are going to enforce our border."
Democrats can end the shutdown by funding and authorizing the wall. If not the wall, perhaps they can ask what a reasonable alternative would be that prevents illegal immigrants from being inside the United States.

Quick! There's a national emergency that can't go another day without thousands being murdered and drugs being forced down the throats of school children and brown gang members raping your wives...we need to sit on our ass for 35 days, hold the country hostage though we didn't do anything for two years before this, and then try and get a multi-year building project started RIGHT AWAY! Emergency!!!!B.A. Bearacus said:
Republicans have wanted for a long time to give No Quarter to anyone who has anything to do with south of the border origins. It's a racists thing, in my opinion, but never mind that.oski003 said:

If GOP pulls the national emergency, Dems will win both houses and the presidency, and then change laws drastically in their favor and then write new laws making it impossible,for the presidency to declare such a thing again.B.A. Bearacus said:B.A. Bearacus said:

OMG today has been fun. Nancy "The Wall" Pelosi wins again.
Tonight is my annual dinner with a bunch of wealthy, mostly Trump-loving, folks and my wife has made me promise not to talk politics. She's right, of course. Last year they were giddy. This year I expect the political silence to be deafening.
