Nancy Pelosi is winning in her battle with Trump. Here's why

A campaign promise to deal with illegal immigration... duh... :lol:

a wall wont stop illegal immigrantion, nor deal with illegal within the U.S.
its simply a distraction from the real debate.
 
Dude... that is not valid evidence... that is just you making some statements...

ev·i·dence
/ˈevədəns/Submit
noun
1.

The lack of you being able to show it as being inaccurate ISthe evidence you are requesting. They didnt do anything for two years.

If you can show otherwise, please feel free to do so. Otherwise, you are just talking to boost your post count.

Where did I say that a wall would stop illegal immigration?

Welcome to the debate! :)

:lol: You make a claim... I challenge you to defend it... you say that since I odon't show it as inaccurate that means that you are correct...

That is some seriously stupid **** that you are posting... :lol:
 
You're foolish.

Absolutely... All I can do is reiterate that I OWN you and all I can do is hope that you get better at debating... to be OWNED by a fool must be embarrassing...

Welcome to the debate! :)

If your goal was to deal with illegal immigration building a 60 + billion, 5 + billion a year wall is a waste.
It takes the average person 15 min to by pass the wall take that money and spend it on border agents, surveillance system, Immigration Judges and your detection and removal numbers will skyrocket.
but this was never about illegal immigration it was about building a wall nothing more.

This is what happen when you elect by talking point and not by substance.
anything other then a wall would be seen as a defeat for Trump and the GOP.

Great... you are still not addressing what I said...

Because what you said is meaningless.

Republican have to build a wall even if its a stupid idea, Republican know its a stupid idea hence why they didn't build it during the two years they had control.
and now they are stuck which is why "Tough on illegal" didn't win them back the house in the midterms.

Worse than that, Sen. Lankford who is often trotted out by McConnell when he wants a GOP Senator to message has said that Trump's Saturday offer is nothing more than a strawman designed to push around the Senate so that there is something else to push around there besides the Bills that the House has already signed.

That is pretty disgusting. Trump did not even mention the 800,000 federal employees in his Saturday announcement, did not even mention the damage to the country or the economy and all Trump and the GOP has at this point is a strawman designed to push around the Senate floor! It will attract no Dem votes even if sweeteners from left field are added to it. I guess you could say that it might have some value as a means to take the temperature of GOP Senators with regard to breaking ranks. But you would not think McConnell would need to take their temperature via some halfassed vote. He should know it at any given moment.

Clearly then McConnell is worried that the pressure is starting to mount in his direction as all he has to show for 31 days of shutdown is hiding and scurrying around DC trying to avoid the cameras and microphones while refusing to bring the Bills passed in the House to the floor of the Senate. But trying to push a strawman around the Senate floor indicates he is quite willing to see the gov remain shutdown longer.

Trump not mentioning the federal workers even once in his Saturday announcement was a huge tactical blunder and trying to slide a post announce tweet in later in the weekend hardly got it done. In fact it just points out the depth of the original blunder.

In addition, trying to make the conversion to a discussion of slats v solid construction wall as a concession is laughable. Its no concession at all. That is just somebody cluing Dizzy Donald in that his own CBP has always wanted something they could see through. So after two years of yammering about solid construction wall, dawn breaks over that cracked dome of his and somebody finally clues him in to something anybody who would have asked would have known two years ago!

So?

You guys seem to forget how uncompromising the GOP was with Obama..

Boehner in 2010:



This is what McConnell said in 2010:



And remember this was in 2010.. When the country was still reeling from the 2008 crash. The GOP didn't give a rats ass about helping the millions losing their jobs and homes. They just cared about party. I remember this vividly. This was when I, a Republican for 35+ years, became a Democrat.



Whataboutism
 
Whataboutism

Nah, more like thanks to the GOP Congress during the Obama terms this is the way politics is played now. No compromise, no bipartisanship at all, it's all party before country now. And that's straight from the mouths of McConnell and Boehner.

Obama build hundreds of miles of the Border Wall...
 
:lol: You make a claim... I challenge you to defend it... you say that since I odon't show it as inaccurate that means that you are correct...

That is some seriously stupid **** that you are posting... :lol:

I didn't make a claim....I stated what actually happened. Let me do so again, and watch you act as if something I said isn't dead on ****ing correct.

For two years, the Republican Party had complete and total control of the wheels of government. They could have passed any legislation they wanted, unimpeded by those pesky Democrats. That is not a claim, not an opinion, it is a straight up fact. Here is your proof:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/114th_United_States_Congress

At that link, you can see ALL (sarcasm should be noted) of the legislation that got passed by that group. You will also notice that nowhere in that list is anything to do with the funding of border wall. Why is that? They had the control and the ability, but chose not to get it done.

They got tax breaks taken care of. They got Kavanaugh confirmed. They rested.

Ball is in your court now, homie. Refute anything I have said or have been saying since this all got started. You got your proof.....show it to be inaccurate. Heres your chance, Mr. Big Shot....don't let me down.

I see that you learned a lesson... what you showed before was not evidence... it was just you saying some stuff...

So I won that one...


Regarding this NEW argument that you are presenting with evidence... I don't care about it. It was never my argument that the Republicans or the Democrats did anything this or that... I don't care. What I made an argument about was that this topic is about Pelosi and not Trump. Those trying to turn it around on Trump are failing, as is the case when people try to turn the issue from whomever their beloved politiican is to the other side...

So let me get this straight.....you make a claim that you can't prove, proceed to actually accomplish NOT proving a damned thing, then proclaim yourself the victor? You should probably go see a chiropractor sometime soon and make sure you didn't throw something out stretching like that.

The only thing you won was the award for looking foolish.

I didn't make a NEW argument. What I provided you was common knowledge, and as such in any normal circle of discussion (not to be confused with your circular logic, by the way) would have been considered long proven. You argued for the sake of arguing, and when you were put to task to defend yourself, you then come with some bull**** about not actually caring about something you have been harping on for 24 pages. Give it a rest. The gig is up.
 
Obama build hundreds of miles of the Border Wall...

God damn it....

Repairing whats there is not building new wall.

Thats the same bull**** tactic that Trump is trying to use now, claiming that he built new wall when in fact all he did was repair the existing stuff.

I would say for shame, but when you are this shameless, whats the point.

You said the Left lies about Trump... I asked you for evidence... you provided none and mocked my avatar... I taught you about evidence after you provided a link and asked me to look up the evidence for you... I said that you are failing, essentially, ... you spend ten posts or so talking about Donnie and Marie... I ask you to make an actual case... you FINALLY do make a case, but about something I was not even interested in in the first place... that is fine... now here we are... I won the part about you not knowing how to make a case... nothing else... you now make a case... sort of... so... what is next... are you going to talk about Pelosi now?

An even greater worry may be the virtual fence the Obama administration is planning for the remaining 1,300 miles of border, at an estimated cost of nearly $7 billion.

I didn't mock you avatar. I asked you if the name came from a game I used to play. I was actually gonna compliment you on it. But I digress...

I made my case the second I stated a plainly known fact. The Republicans did have control of the entire government.

I didn't ask you too look up anything for me...I already knew that what I said was factually accurate. What I asked you to do was prove ANYTHING you said. I'm still waiting for you to do so.

You didn't win on me knowing how to make a case, because once again, the case was already proven because, well, reality exists.

Sure, I can talk about Pelosi if you'd like....how about the fact that she is mopping the floor with the political dimwit in the White House. The very thing that people who voted for him love about him is the very same thing that explains why he is going to lose this battle. She is far more experienced at this kind of ****.
 
What exactly was the point of that?


God, you are bad at this fact thing...

Not really... You got angry that I said that Obama built some Border Wall... I provided evidence that he did... you create a Red Herring about the term, I guess to show that Obama did not contribute to Border Wall/Security in an effort to help control Illegal Immigration?


You do realize what they word, VIRTUAL, means, right?

He wasn't planning on building anything.

You do realize that the term "Border Wall" refers to anything that is "Border Security"... right? Wall. Fence. Cameras. Anti-Driving Posts... etc. ???

Sure, I can talk about Pelosi if you'd like....

No thanks...

I didn't get angry....trust me, you don't have the skills needed to fluster me that bad. I DID, however, call you on your bull**** claim, which you STILL haven't actually proven. What created wasn't a red herring. It was dead on point. What you claimed wasn't correct. You seem okay with that, and thats fine....you do you. The rest of us don't have to live with alternative facts though.

You do realize that the term "Border Wall" refers to anything that is "Border Security"... right? Wall. Fence. Cameras. Anti-Driving Posts... etc. ???

The fact that you have to conflate those two things to mean the same thing in order for your bogus stance to have any legs is laughable. I mean really...you put both phrases in the same sentence and tried to claim they mean the same thing....and they clearly don't. A wall is one thing.....security is another. They are not synonymous.

No thanks...

Then why did you try to make that stupid assed point earlier? Are you having a stroke? Do you smell toast? You're making me worry about you.
 
Absolutely... All I can do is reiterate that I OWN you and all I can do is hope that you get better at debating... to be OWNED by a fool must be embarrassing...

"I know you are, but what am I?" great debate tool. You're doing a stellar job. Carry on.
 
At this point, you are stand more IN what you said than by it. Usually, when digging holes, once its over your head, you should stop digging.

All you are doing now is admitting that Trump is getting bested by what you have basically called a blithering idiot. Not exactly a ringing endorsement there.

Nice attempt at spin, but wrong.
