    It’s never been a problem of a few. It’s always been about much much more as we’ve been saying and the Dems have been ignoring.

    Nobody is ignoring anything. It is your imagination and it is being fed by Trump. Trump's approach is in question. Everybody knows about the problem.

    Of course they didn't....but they still had the filibuster in the Senate. Either way, why that was a massive probllem, so was getting Americans back to work....hene the tax cuts and healthcare.

    You mean the same Senate that could have used the nuclear option to override the 60 votes? It's time to face facts. Trump is a loser and an awful leader. He cared more about the rich getting welfare than he did about the border his first 2 years. Too bad for him the courts will not allow him to wipe his ass with the Constitution to build a wall. Maybe if he doesn't get booted out and if by some miracle the GOP gets complete control in 2020, maybe he can try to pass a bill then.

    Not everyone wants to destroy the rules of the US Senate for short term gains.

    I agree cutting taxes, and getting Americans back to work was his first priority and he did a fantastic job of that

    But you're ok with him destroying the Constitution?

    You mean the same Americans that were getting back to work the previous 4 years?

    Who’s destroying the constitution by following regular order in the senate?

    True Americans started gettin back to work when the gop took congress, despite Obama and putting an end to Reid an nancy control..but not quite at the same amazing levels once they took the oval

    Trump is trying to wipe his ass with the Constitution with his national emergency horseshit. Thankfully the courts put that to an end, for now.

    True Americans? I wasn't aware there were non true Americans. How patriotic of you.

    Liberals don't lose their jobs to illegals because we work hard and are good at what we do. Conservatives lose their jobs to illegals because they are lazy and can't outproduce those third world diseased dirtbags. Own it.

    The Dems are missing out.

    The Republicans want to:

    1) seal the border,
    2) eliminate idiotic ideas like the "immigration lottery" and "chain migration",
    3) change the asylum laws (which equate to national suicide),
    4) establish a merit-based immigration system (which every civilized country on the planet has except the U.S.).

    If the Dems can agree to those things, they'd get the dreamer thing done and probably even get citizenship for the 22 million illegals already here.

    Oh good! I cant wait for a Dem POTUS to declare national emergencies on whatever he/she wants because Congress couldn't pass legislation. I suppose you will be 100% in support of a Dem POTUS doing the same thing, right?

    Of COURSE it's about wishing Trump to fail! That is ALL it is. He is now calling out the NYT and good for him. Did the NYT say that their article was an exclusive because they were the only ones reporting that until CNN chimed in afterwards. I don't think they did. You people had better stop reading these rags. They are not good for your mental health. Tip of the day----- fake news means it's a lie. That's all they do. They had better watch out. The Covington kid may be suing them too in the near future after the Washington Post and CNN.

    Did you read that in the fake news too or did you think it up all by yourself? LOL What could we have done with those billions of dollarsthat Obama flew to Iran in the middle of the night? How could we have helped the American people instead of our ENEMY? When you deal with evil, you have to play hardball...not surrender to them like the coward Obama, the Neville Chamberlain of our time.

    And once again the trumpettes flock to defend their con man, ignoring all facts.

    Pathetic. Is it really possible that so many are so gullible ? Or is it simply their absurd lust to stay in power ?

    Trump will never lose his 44%. They have been brainwashed into loyalty.

    And if the queen had balls, she would be king. Get real. Trump's fck-ups are of his own doing, so don't blame the Dems for his failures.
    He was offered 25 billion a year ago for his wall and turned it down. "Chain migration" is a stupid expression which only means that asylum seekers want their families with them. How would you feel? Trump's non-thought out decisions made according to his "gut"
    has put our country in a bad place. The Trump party is missing out.

    That money belonged to Iran as it had been frozen and its release was part of the deal. There is no "fake news" here, pal. Only facts.
    A crisis created by Trump. Wow
    You are so wrong. They didn't understand and boarded the plane to remind Trump in person that there was already an agreement and for Trump to threaten tariffs was not right since there was an arrangement in place. Typical Trump BS. That is common sense.

    There was no surrender, but there was a deal made to control nuclear development by Iran. Trump, in all his glory, canceled it and now we have nothing. The fool could have restarted negotiations first, but he acted like a bully once again. Bullying does not work as it is divisive and not inclusive.

    And no, hotshot, I did not think it up "all by myself". I did my due diligence.
    The lesson to be learned is for you to do your due diligence before asking a silly question. Watching Fox News won't get you the info that you need.

    So stealing a SCOTUS seat is acceptable but protecting America isn’t?
    That’s interesting
