    Great effort this non-Mexico-payed-for wall is turning out to be. We must remember that Trump is a con man, NOT an engineer. But it's got the psychological advantage of keeping Trump's racist supporters happy. Even if it means the dreaded brown people will have to sneak through the open flood gates when the guards aren't looking.
    The media tourist strikes again.

    Are you under the impression that Trump personally designed the wall? He didn't. He hired contractors who know their business. And as the article points out, it's only isolated sections of the wall in remote areas that need to be temporarily opened, and the solution is to simply step up border patrols in those targeted sections. I also notice the article you linked to does not include any images of these offending gates. In fact, I can't find pictures of them anywhere since the two-dozen or so articles I found either include a generic picture of the wall, or no pictures at all, so it's difficult to assess exactly what is being discussed.

    Furthermore, I don't entirely understand liberal logic here which implies that no barrier is somehow preferable to an imperfect one. That's like saying it's stupid to close and lock the front door of your house because someone could just break the window enter that way.

        I didn't vote for Trump to "get stuff" - I voted for Trump to keep Hillary from TAKING stuff.

        Great moral standard his conservative Christian support base has don't you think CP?
        To keep Hillary - a liar and crook - from being POTUS and advancing the agenda of the cause of the enemies of the cross? Check.

          If only you knew what an ironic choice that was.

            Jim, you're not here for the fellowship. You have a pathetic little life that is driven by hatred, wanting desperately to be significant.

              So, you haven’t gloated about the number of conservative judges and justices appointed by Trump to implement your agenda re RvW and LGBT rights?

              To keep Hillary - a liar and crook - from being POTUS
              Think about how beyond squeaky clean Hillary must have been to have gotten out free & clear from three separate investigations by this blood thirsty administration - including the inevitable collapse of the right-wing Uranium One conspiracy theory.

              and advancing the agenda of the cause of the enemies of the cross? Check.
              Are you suggesting that Hillary is not as devout a Christian as the pious, church-going Donald Trump for whom you voted? Shame on you.

                No the idiotic notion is that Trump isn't corrupt, isn't taking stuff.


                Jim, you're not here for the fellowship. You have a pathetic little life that is driven by hatred, wanting desperately to be significant.
                This is politics, CP, it has nothing to do with fellowship. Besides, that comment goes both ways which the above ad-hominum makes clear your motive has nothing to do with fellowship.

                  just a smidge

                  appointed by Trump to implement your agenda re RvW and LGBT rights?
                  You know how there's that Godwin's Law thing, where every discussion eventually comes down to Hitler?
                  There outta be a "Tassman's Law" where every discussion comes down to LGBTQRX+ rights and a big empty head rolling back and forth on the floor.

                  And you are such a prejudiced HACK for leaving out all those other orientations besides LGBT! You CAD, you!!!!

                  Think about how beyond squeaky clean Hillary must have been to have gotten out free & clear from three separate investigations by this blood thirsty administration - including the inevitable collapse of the right-wing Uranium One conspiracy theory.
                  You are so hilarious it's precious!

                  I made no suggestion or implication whatsoever - this is just your typical moronic babbling.

                    Of course, you did. You said you voted for Trump: “To keep Hillary - a liar and crook - from being POTUS and advancing the agenda of the cause of the enemies of the cross?” With the implication that Hillary WAS a liar and crook (except that she’s gotten out free & clear from three separate Republican investigations) and that the impeached adulterous “liar and crook” Trump was not.

                    - this is just your typical moronic babbling.
                    Look to yourself when it comes to “moronic babbling”, you moronic babbler.

                      For once, you tell the truth!

                      With the implication that Hillary WAS a liar and crook
                      And still is.

                      (except that she’s gotten out free & clear from three separate Republican investigations)
                      Doesn't change the facts. Mr FBI laid an absolutely solid case against her, then choked and came up with the "no reasonable prosecutor" crap. I think you forgot that part.

                      and that the impeached adulterous “liar and crook” Trump was not.
                      You really need to study the difference between "imply" and "infer".

                      Look to yourself when it comes to “moronic babbling”, you moronic babbler.
                      So, according to your twisted moronic logic, when Trump is acquitted, he will no longer be guilty of anything. I hope that sounded better in your big empty rolling-on-the-floor head.

                        Nope. She’s as clean as a whistle. You're confusing compulsive liar and crook Trump with Hillary.

                        “After more than two years, an inquiry into the Clinton Foundation and Clinton’s tenure at State (including the baseless “Uranium One” conspiracy theory championed by conservatives) is nearly done—and there’s reportedly absolutely nothing to show for it”.

                        And the everlasting $7 million House Benghazi report House Benghazi report faults military response, not Clinton who was completely cleared. Unlike Trump she at least subjected herself to cross-examination at the endless hearings.

                          Did you actually READ the article about the Benghazi report or just the headline?

                          It blames the entire administration for it. That includes Hillary, who was the Secretary of State. She wasn't cleared at all.


                          “What we did find was a tragic failure of leadership – in the run-up to the attack and the night of – and an administration that, so blinded by politics and its desire to win an election, disregarded a basic duty of government: tell the people the truth. And for those reasons Benghazi is, and always will be, an American tragedy.”

                          “Secretary Clinton and the administration told one story privately – that Benghazi was a terrorist attack – and told another story publicly – blaming a video-inspired protest,”

                          And on Tuesday Reince Priebus, chairman of the Republican National Committee, weighed in: “The new information in the majority’s report on the Benghazi terrorist attack makes clear that Hillary Clinton and the Obama administration engaged in a politically motivated cover-up weeks before the 2012 presidential election.

                          “Hillary Clinton knew the night of the attack it had nothing to do with an internet video, and yet she shamefully peddled this false narrative to the American public and to the victims’ families. This in itself is a disqualifying act of deception.”

                            After your defense of the Senate Impeachment trial, the last thing you should be arguing is that you believe "the american people should be told the truth." Besides that, as republican Kevin McCarthy made clear when he let it slip out that the Benghazi report was nothing more than a 7 million dollar political hit job paid for by the American taxpayers.

                                I think Tass is trying to prove me wrong that Jim is the most partisan poster on Tweb, and Tassy does it from a ferren country.
