Well, I think you take a lot less than 5 billion dollars, hire a bunch more immigration judges and lawyers, and pay for temporary housing on one side of the border or the other while waiting for their cases to be decided.


And why on earth should we pay for their housing at all exactly? Why should we have to pay for more judges and lawyers exactly?

Anybody see dopey Beto yesterday
live streaming his teeth cleaning
at the dentist? He looks even more
moronic than usual. Dozens of
reporters mocked and laughed at
him, saying things like 'Beto has
already jumped the shark' and
'What's next a live stream of his
colonoscopy?'

This airhead is at the top of some
lists for Dem president. What a joke.
At least he couldn't wave his arms
around in the dentists chair.

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

To end a humanitarian crisis. People who are entering the country legally are being held in poor conditions and are being separated by their families. People who are waiting to enter the country are living in even worse conditions. There are not enough judges and lawyers to process them all in a timely fashion.

How does building a wall end the humanitarian crisis?

It ends it by sending a clear message that we are not going to provide for people who sneak in. Mexico needs to pay for it as they are the ones letting these caravans pass thru their country and are pushing their own people to the USA.

It is not our responsibility to pay judges and lawyers to give express service. Let them apply at home instead of showing up on the doorstep.

We have Americans needing help that have to wait. Fix the VA before we spend a nickel more on helping them get in.

Like I pointed out, the bulk of the people in crisis are not sneaking in. Also, you may only apply for asylum if you are at a port of entry of the United States.

How long will it take to send that clear message? Wall construction should take years.

Again, how does it end the emergency humanitarian crisis? Following the philosophy of never asking a question that you don't already know the answer to: it doesn't.

The way I expect it will play out:
Trump will declare an emergency
Congress will pass pretty much what they had already agreed to pass last December
Trump signs it
Federal judges put a stay on Trump's emergency
Trump will wail righteous indignation,
and then he won't do anything and it will slowly fade away

oh and he'll claim victory for fulfilling a campaign promise, and blame democrats and activist judges for preventing it from being carried out.

I guess you did not see the caravan that stormed the border requiring use of tear gas?

Here is a more clear message. Record numbers are sneaking in all over Here is a more clear message--I care far more about Americans having to deal with illegal immigration than I do illegal aliens.

Why don't they just apply for asylum in Mexico? Could it be they want the welfare and other benefits in the USA? It is not about asylum, it is about wanting freebies in the USA. BUILD THE WALL!

Why do you liberals care more about them than our own people and country?

If the GOP wants to take the House back in 2020 and otherwise win they had better stand firm. They have zero to lose by not caving. The Democrats are owning this.

About the equivalent of 1 American university campus where tear gas gets used during a protest. Probably less.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Hey did anyone catch that weird moment yesterday when Trump described the type of tape to put over a female kidnapped victim's mouth? (He's mistaken, by the way. He thinks kidnappers use blue tape, but Trump had a lengthy career in construction, so he should know that the blue tape is used by painters, not electricians. Blue tape isn't very adhesive, so it's probably not the best tape to use for the purpose of kidnapping someone.)

The man is bonkers.

You must listen to Rush. You post
almost word for word the Dem's
talking points on how they hope this will
work out. Rush was laughing about
it today.
