Could some democrat please take Pelosi aside

What on Earth are you blabbering about? You're proving my point. You're saying that Democrats are for border security while at the same time being for sanctuary cities, a sanctuary state, giving illegals driver's licenses, education, allowing them to vote in local elections, and giving them free healthcare. Might as well just sing or put monster truck tires on the immigration problem. In fact, singing to the border and putting monster truck tires on the border probably wouldn't do anything to stop illegal immigration, while doing all of those other things actually encourages it and makes the problem worse. Quit doing all of that other stuff to prove you are serious about border security.

Dems are the singing, Trump is the monster truck tires. Neither is going to work, you should have said "I wouldn't hire either mechanic". Perhaps the American people should demand better, rather than defaulting to partisanship and getting mediocrity (or worse) in return.

Will note for the future that you're not all that quick at picking up an analogy, though.... ;) :lol:
 
They want to take away your guns too, and your money. And they want to teach your kids to be gay and your grandkids to change genders.

At first I thought your post was nonsense but then after thinking about it, you are right. The left does want to take citizen's guns away, they do want to rob the rich to give to the poor, and they do want gayness to be very acceptable everywhere, including young children to change genders and dress in opposite sex clothing. While these later things shouldn't be discriminated against, they should also not be accepted as normal behavior and encouraged.
 
There have been several well known Democrats encouraging the Caravans, Democratic party heroes.

And you will name them all right now and post links the words "Caravans, please keep coming! We need more caravans!", too, right?
 
Could some half way intelligent democrat please take Pelois aside and explain one fact to her. They need to explain to her how a compromise works. They also need to tell her no matter how pig headed she is she is not going to get everything her way.

Could some half way intelligent republican please take Trump aside and explain to him that he needs to open the government so he understands how a compromise works and bragging about doing it is not going to help him get his way.

I think some half way intelligent republican, any republican and explain one simple fact to djt. He needs to understand that giving back things he took away is not compromise and he should know that he has to have an actual plan before it can be funded. It can be: "maybe a wall" or a "fence" or "steel slats" … "whatever". I know he, and his followers, think nearly 6 billion dollars is tRump change (tRump/chump … samo, samo) but to some Americans that sounds like real money to us. Maybe if he could define what he want's it for … that would be a start.
 
Trump declared "One way or another, we're going to get a wall."

How does he compromise?

He compromises on what he what would be willing to give up to get it

But since we have no idea on what that would take....the dems aren’t asking for anything

There is no talking, no negotiation

And the government stays shut
 
Obviously the definition of 'negotiate' eludes you.

Negotiate - to deal or bargain with another or others, as in the preparation of a treaty or contract or in preliminaries to a business deal.

to have formal discussions with someone in order to reach an agreement with them.

Pelosi doesn't come close.

actually, you're thinking that if a person is bullied and doesn't budge they're not negotiating. that's where you're not understanding how real negotiations work. not budging is critical for the best negotiators when it's called for.

Trump sucks at negotiating.
 
LOL. Yes, you would love to explain things YOUR way.:roll:

Not at all.

I said you would have to stop believing in myths before I could even begin to explain it to you.

You're what's wrong with politics today. Everyone who disagrees with you is not only wrong, but evil and anti-American.

That is nowhere close to the truth, and unhelpful for dialogue.

It shows a complete unwillingness to even consider another point of view.

Well according to republicans, you shouldn't compromise on your principles..........but now republicans are telling us that is the wrong way! LMAO! Thank you republicans. We had no reason to laugh at you until you open your mouth. LMAO!

Trump puts DACA recipients in danger, offers temporary hold on that danger in exchange for what he wants. Also, he's being blocked on DACA right now by courts, so this is not something he actually has leverage on at the moment.

That's not how ****ing compromise works.
 
You post a link to one brand new Congressional rep comparing the caravan to Jews fleeing the Holocaust. I asked you for names and links to all of the Democrats who encourage caravans. Try again, and this time please post what I ask for.

I think the bigger question is why a wall stops caravans that present themselves at a border checkpoint.

Wrong. We had plenty of reason to laugh at him, and we have been, even before this thread.
 
Trump has not budged at all. First of all, the legal status of the Dreamers is now going through the courts and they are winning, meaning that Trump is not offering anything that they won't get through the courts themselves. In addition, Trump was the one that took the Dreamers status away. It is like saying, I stole your ball but I will let you play with it for a short period of time if you pay me. This is not compromise, it is extortion. Last but not least, Trump has changed his mind on things he has said in the past that to depend on him doing what he says is pure stupidity.

Pelosi has negotiated in the past but at some point negotiating with someone that is trying to scam at every turn becomes a self-defeating event. Trump needs to show some true good will and release the innocents he is holding hostage before any new negotiating takes place.

*Trump has not budged at all.*

Sure he has, he gave a speech and listed numerous compromises.
 
Democrats were perfectly fine with putting up hundreds of miles of a barrier under Obama but under Trump, not one inch.

Just a year ago Shumer offered Trump $20 B for the wall in exchange for full DACA and Trump turned him down.

Oh FFS, stop with the bullying victimology. Pelosi is speaker of the house and as of yet made no counter offer. She has failed to negotiate.

She has zero incentive to make a counter offer. Trump is a horrible negotiator and she'll sit tight until he breaks.

You guys should have never elected a man who can't get a loan at a US bank. That was a glaring red flag that he's a horrible negotiator and a crook.

You also should be mad at Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter. They're the ones pulling his strings on this deal.

1) She has 800,000 incentives to negotiate plus dreamers plus TPS'ers.

2) Partisan rant dismissed
