@WillyGeeTX : I am not saying the USA should send DACA's or other illegals here back to Mexico, ...but remember the "Green Card" to have the privilege to work here in the USA? I believe they have their place here, just as they have for many, many years, as migrant workers. I have no problem with "legal immigrants" that want to come here. But the "legal immigrants" have had to learn what the constitution is, what our laws are, learn English and be able to converse, etc. The difference is they wanted to be American "citizens". They paid a very high price and waited a very long time to come here legally and it is a spit in the eye of everyone of them to know this is happening. The illegals are here, millions of them, but I don't believe they should be afforded the privilege of voting, because they are here "illegally". They need to be able to take care of themselves, feed themselves, cloth themselves, and it would be very nice if they actually wanted to be Americans living in America!
Your #1 That's great. I think the people in the entire Nation of America would rather pay that price and be safe and stop the drugs to a trickle instead of a flood. Our kids are suffering greatly! Gov't has been bloated for many, many years. It's a fact! ...and they make more money, for the same jobs than, non-gov't positions make. Of course it's bloated in many ways.
#2 Forget about California, it already has a wall and it's a lost cause in sooo many ways anyway. As far as Texas, our governors for many, many years have been screaming about the border crossings. The ranchers living along the border are begging for a wall. Their cattle are killed all the time, their homes broken into, their lives threatened. As far as New Mexico, ...they have been blue for many years. They do whatever they are told... period! Arizona has also wanted the wall. Their ranchers are in harms way everyday as well. " The Mexico-US border is the most frequently crossed border in the world, with approx. 350 million "documented" crossings ANNUALLY". That figure is only "documented" crossings.
3. Both parties have dog whistles. So that is nothing new, but I'd be willing to bet Trump has a lot fewer, even in his own party.
4. The crisis is REAL and the "can" has been kicked down the road by many, many presidents. The last few presidents or more all addressed that fact in their speeches and stated the wall needed to be built, including the Bushes', Obama, Clinton, etc.. It wasn't until President Trump decided to actually "do it" that they all jumped up and said "no way". ...yes... it is political, but it needs to be done. We just might have a president that has the backbone to do it.
5. Oh well - here we go again with the Rush and Ann thing. The drive-by media says it everyday. Same ole, same ole!!!! I'm pretty sure President Trump does "his own thing". I've heard more nonsense and complete demagoguery from the main stream media. They all say the "exact" same catch phrases, never reporting anything different and are extremely irresponsible news outlets. Their fake news is repeated over and over again, hoping people that don't do their research , will believe it.
Your budget info. sounds like talking points from the previous administration. The worst president in history. Obama lied to the people over and over again, regarding their insurance plans, doctors, affordability and he knew when he said it that it was a lie. He stole from Medicare to fund his Obama-mess and left the Medicare program in the lurch (which was paid for by every American citizen who is on it). He was the most apologetic president in history as well, bending and apologizing for America being the Greatest Nation in the World. Sorry about that... I'm not apologizing for this Great Nation ever, because it is the greatest Nation in the world.
Now that we have hashed this out, others can read and maybe go do a little research of their own.
