This one is for Simple Little Joey Shitstain:

Donald Trump’s ‘great wall’ is a fantasy that even he knows will never be real
  • Donald Trump sought the presidency on a fantasy: with Mexico’s money, he would build a “great wall” of concrete-and-steel across America’s southern border.
  • Ever since he won, Trump has obscured his inability to make the fantasy real.
  • He has fogged the air on whether he seeks a wall or something else, whether he needs money from Congress or not, whether the wall is “desperately needed” or already largely built.

Trump knew it, too. Days after his inauguration, he told Mexico’s president of his “political bind, because I have to have Mexico pay for the wall – I have to. I’ve been talking about it for a two-year period.”

When his counterpart reiterated firm opposition, a leaked transcript of their phone call showed, Trump replied: “But you cannot say that to the press. The press is going to go with that, and I cannot live with that.”

Resistance extended beyond financing. Influential Republicans, such as Texas Sen. John Cornyn, cast doubt early on about the feasibility and effectiveness of a border-long barrier.


By spring 2017, Republicans abandoned a White House demand for $1 billion to begin wall construction. Covering that retreat, Trump called money for replacement of existing barriers a “down payment.”

Later, as they pursued shared tax cut goals, Republicans trumpeted Trump’s theme anew. “It is time for The Wall,” Ryan tweeted in August 2017.

But it wasn’t time. Though Republicans never explicitly rebuffed the president, the time never came while they controlled both chambers of Congress the last two years.

When Obama left office, Jan 20, 2017, the Dow closed at 19,827. When he entered office, Jan 20, 2009, the Dow closed at 7,949. In other words, in his 8 years in office the Dow went up roughly 150%. If Trump stays in office 8 years, the Dow would have to be 49,369 for his term in office to equal Obama’s as it relates to the stock market and the Dow Jones Industrial average.

Furthermore, private sector job growth was up 2.2 million in 2016, Obama’s last year in office while job growth in 2017, Trump’s first year, was up 2.1 million. First quarter 2018, job growth was 605,000. Job growth in the first quarter of 2016 was 606,000. Again, job growth under Obama was marginally better than under Trump.

In Obama’s last year, Bill OReilly, then the most popular Fox news host, complained that jobs created under Obama were misleading because the labor participation rate was only 63% which is virtually exactly where it is after the first quarter of 2018.

Average hourly wages grew approximately 3 percent in 2016 and were up approximately 2.3 percent in 2017. Once again, the self proclaimed jobs President, Donald Trump, has underperformed Obama despite doing away with what the Republicans call “job killing regulations”, a very large corporate tax cut and increases in deficit spending.

For modern presidents that served eight years, job growth in Bill Clinton’s two terms was 21.5 million. During the Obama administration, 17.3 million jobs were created. Ronald Reagan’s two terms added 15.9 million jobs, LBJ’s administration created 11.9 million private sector jobs and last (and least) George W Bush manage only 2.1 million in his 8 years.

How do you feel about sanctuary cities/states and illegal aliens?
I love this country. Sorry you feel badly about the constitution and the justice system.
I know your friend Iz wants to change the tax code so that a house is not treated as a capital asset and he wants an investigation to determine the specific amount of votes which were switched to Trump as a result of the Russian interference in our election. Maybe you should travel with him to D.C. to start working on the changes you seek. I know you’d like to do something about transgender rights and immigration...those are actually issues in actual debate, unlike Iz’s issues, where he’s the only one concerned about them. Nevertheless, you’re a team. Hop to it!

So, how do you feel about sanctuary.cities/states and illegal immigration?
 
So, how do you feel about sanctuary.cities/states and illegal immigration?
Is that two questions?
1. I feel fine about them. No strong feelings one way or the other.
2. I feel it’s illegal and we clearly don’t prioritize it. Must be powers greater than you or I (those are always corporate powers which is why you idiots don’t understand anything about the climate debate) who have decided it’s ok. The “wall” is irrelevant and should not happen. It’s Un-American.
