$5 billion for a wall

Fox News had daily coverage of the "invasion" while Ann Coulter called on Trump to "invade Mexico" and Vice President Pence consulted with Rush on his show for the wall of the resistance. Now THAT'S hype...

Rush, Coulter and Fox News in particular have a large audience and cater to Trump's base. More importantly, Trump listens to them and not the so-called liberal media. Trump didn't insist on his border wall and all that goes with it until he listened to Coulter, Rush and Fox and that's an obvious fact along with his failure to pass his own agenda on it with his own party in control of congress. As far as Greg's nonsense post goes, I don't take his stuff  seriously any more than I do with Davis. I do believe the 25 billion dollar figure he stated in his post in this thread is something he actually believed along with millions of illegals voting to give Clinton a popular majority over Trump as the latter falsely stated or that Mexico is going to pay for the wall...

Rod why in the hell would Trump want to listen to the "so-called liberal media"  after the daily shit they say about him?  I think this is one of the more stupid posts I have seen on here in a long time!
Steve,
My point is that he's been actively listening to the hype from the sources I've noted and not the hype of a "crisis" from the "liberal media" which is Mel's contention:
"The media and Dems did their best to hype the caravan as a crisis giving it wall to wall coverage." And: "This was a big push from liberals." 
So, my point is Mel's assertion is wrong because the actions from Trump were reactions to the hype from the conservative media and not a "crisis" from the "liberal  media." And, again, if this was something Trump felt was truly a crisis before he heard from Coulter, Rush and Fox, he had two years of a Republican led congress to pass his own agenda on it which he didn't do. I was responding to Mel's posts and not yours or anyone else in my response to the statements from him as noted above. That you and a couple of others can't see that demonstrates your own stupidity..

The Dimcrats have even approved funding to some of those countries to help them build their walls.....The absolute pinnacle of hypocrisy.....This is nothing but pure partisan politics. The real fact is the census, its not really about votes. Its about retaining the population count to insure they keep enough seats to retain power in the blue states.....
Without viable and unbiased links aside, your post rings true in my opinion to a certain degree in that we need comprehensive immigration reform. I liked McCain's pathway to citizenship proposal and I favor active versus passive barriers at the border but I recognize the need for the latter in specific areas. I favor greater amounts of funding for the border patrol with more helicopters, drones and an array of ground sensors. I think the cost of implementing the latter could be negotiated with Mexico.

Trump Teens Harass Native American/Vietnam Vet

Typical leftist misinformation and fake news made up by the left in charge of all these News outlets.  

OR you can hide under your desk.  Your choice.  
I think you got it right the first time:
"Those kids?  You never saw dumbass kids doing dumbass things at 16 and 17 years old?"
Take a good look at those kids in the image in the initial post of this thread. The smirks and the feigned smiles speak for themselves along with the looks on their faces. They're not the scared victims here and neither is the teen face to face with the native American in question. And they just happened to have their Trump attire on at the time, too. The so-called Hebrew Israelites are whacked, too. But who do the teens go face to face with their crap? A native American...

Trump Teens Harass Native American/Vietnam Vet

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Rich's crock isn't worth a response, let alone a read, and the only thing I'll all add at this point until the third party reviewer looks at the case for the high school in question is the fact that the parents and chaperones for those kids should have never let them get themselves mixed up in the thing in the first place. An adult with the group should have stepped in immediately and let the kids away from the altercation, no matter who started it. I think that third party reviewer for the high school ought to look at the actions and inactions of the chaperones who were present with the kids but not apparently around them when they should have been.

First, before you read the link, unless you're a Greg and won't, note that our founding fathers of our country hated each other over their political views but even so, they didn't favor a foreign power over their country. And now whAt do you see at a Trump rally? People in a tee shirts proudly proclaiming, "Better Putin than Pelosi"! 
Now, take a look at their offspring:

Davis needs to read and comprehend the charges against Stone. But that's a leap of faith.
Anyone looking at Stone's behavior and mannerisms ought to raise a red flag and clearly the FBI took it seriously...
