    Translation: You are now getting worried that Trump won't cave like the Republicans have always done in the past.

    And the stakes for the dims are high. If Trump caves he is finished. If the dims cave Trumps approval rating will soar. The dims are at this moment scared s**itless about what Trump may say in 15 minute.

    I haven't been this confident for years now. Trump is toast, and the longer he draws this out, the worse he looks. TOTALLY out of touch. And, all the Republicans share in that.

    Because a 30ft barrier will deter most from even trying. Your way they will create a diversion over here while dozens cross over there.

    Nope, Schumer owns this and so do the Democrats. Schumer is a hypocrite and we all know it.

    Why? He may be proving to the American public that closing down 25% of the Government won't affect the vast majority of people at all. The savings from doing that permanently could reduce the national debt dramatically.

    what are you talking about now, if Trump wants to do a interview, sure they will take him out for some ice cream too, he likes two scoops right?

    It was your assertion that they came in on VISA overstays. There's little chance of catching them the first time in doing that. However, if they are deported the first time, they won't be able to come back on a VISA. The only way back in is crossing the border on foot. If there is a 30ft climb, then navigating razor wire and other barriers 30ft up after setting off sensors calling the Border Patrol then climbing down another 30ft ladder and making a get away before the Border Patrol arrives. That needs no research, most won't even try.

    These are the ones they caught, not the total crossers.

    they are actually very reserved and give Trump more benefit of the doubt then he deserves out of respect for the office of president

    Your chart doesn't support your claims.

    It doesn't differentiat on the basis of whether they had been previously deported or any of the various other factors. Simply the level of effort in boarder policing is a factor.

    When there is that many illiterate poor people showing up at the border it makes no difference if they are first timers or 10 timers

    Trump knows he's on a failed strategy.

    He's been working to open government piece by piece.

    In the end, he's undoubtedly going to plead for mercy from his core white supremacists, claiming he diid all he could.

    The vast majority of Americans agree that illegal immigration is a huge problem. Only Democrats deny that and they even offer goodies paid for by Americans to anyone and everyone from anywhere for trying to sneak into our country.

    That's not what Trump says.

    He claims it's because they are criminals and terrorists!!!

    The catch is, that's not how terrorists come here AND those here without documentation have a lower crime rate than do citizens.

    They never had pride. That requires standards and credibility. This is how they can be for morals when they benefit them and reject them when they don't. Ends justify the means.

    Democrats say they are all here to work which is a total lie. Why do you believe sanctuary city, welfare for anyone and everyone Democrats want border security or care about Americans?

    Isn't that akin to saying that you should pay ransom to the kidnappers because it costs you more each day that they hold onto your loved ones?
