You have a point. Trump is an extremely weak leader.

As long as he keeps playing the Victim and either pretending Pelosi and Congress has the power to dictate the Executive Branch decisions. Or being informed by people out to convince him that he doesn't have the authority to have an AG that will allow his agenda to get done. I mean Obama had a gun runner and an election rigger Holder and Lynch. Nobody told him he couldn't have thugs as his AG.

I'm done playing cheerleader this year as well. But when he grows a backbone and brings the actual truth to the Public as he puts an AG that will call for real Criminal investigation into most of the people in Washington DC that colluded in the Soft Coup of the duly elected President. It's going to be a sad day for Liberals that WANTED to believe Trump had Russian Whores piss on him as he promised Putin the keys to the kingdom.

This cartoon implies that border agents themselves want the barrier, and are disappointed that Trump caved.

Trump related..

@jazz_music So do you think the 150 million people between the coasts who were screwed over by the export of their jobs and the import of illegals, all with the enthusiastic help of the Democratic Party, should simply accept their deaths and accusations of "racism" as they die due to globalisation?

They voted for Trump because Democrats abandoned them.

What should they have done, faced with such a corrupt Democratic Party?

jazz_music says

People voted for Trump because they were vulnerable to believing glorious lies

That's the easy way out, and it's not true for the most part.

They voted for Trump primarily because Trump talked about bringing back their jobs from China, and preventing our owners from forcing wages for poor US citizens even lower via the mass import of illegals.

The Democrats just accused Trump voters of RACISM! over and over as they were suffering from Democratic policies. Sure, Republican policies were about the same, but they were always that way. Republicans haven't changed much. Democrats have changed from defending labor to saying "fuck you, racist" to their base, over and over.

It's almost like the Democrats have been taking Koch brothers money or something...

This is probably what jazz meant by "glorious lies." "He talked about bringing back their jobs back from China" so what ?

He said that becasue people would like it, and many would be stupid enough to believe he could do it, or that he would at least try.

Re:"preventing our owners from forcing wages for poor US citizens even lower via the mass import of illegals"

Three point's here:

1) AS far as border security goes, strengthening the southern border has been a large and successful project long before Trump.

2) Trump isn't gong after employers of illegals - in fact he is one.

3) The idea that immigrant (including illegal) nannies, landscape workers, farm workers, or cheap construction workers (in the non union construction job states), are a significant downward force on wages is extremely questionable in my book, that is possibly with the exception of the construction jobs (in the non union states), to a small degree.

We are at essentially zero unemployment. The idea that having pay going up a several dollars per hour for those specific jobs, is especially great for American labor makes zero sense to me.

Fucking Stupid Liberal Cunts!

Just becasue?

jazz_music says

People voted for Trump because they were vulnerable to believing glorious lies, and al the other emotional buttons he pushes.

Or maybe they voted against Hillary?

Wouldn't it be nice to have a candidate to vote for instead of against?

So what?

This is what:

With the December jobs number, President Trump now has two full years of economic performance to compare with his predecessor, President Obama. The two biggest statistical standouts are:

Manufacturing jobs are growing at a 714% faster clip under Trump than over a similar time under Obama, and;
Under Obama, federal state and local government employment grew 6 times faster than did manufacturing jobs, while under Trump, that ratio has been reversed, with manufacturing jobs growing 5 times faster than government jobs.

Lol, you don't think that millions of illegals force wages down significantly? After Little Debbie got raided for employing almost entirely illegals, local blacks got those jobs at 40% higher wages.

This is a typical story of the problem with illegal immigration and jobs in Chicago. Cloverhill bakery hired over 800 illegals to work for about $10/hour for 10-12 hours a day. But after the raid on illegals at the company, they were left with 800 jobs to fill. So they hired blacks. The blacks were paid at a higher wage a minimum hourly wage of $14/hour.

Villegas says blacks have been pitted against Hispanics in the day-labor world “for quite some time. African-Americans were discriminated against because day-labor agencies knew they could take advantage of the undocumented workers. Everybody who wants to work should have a fair opportunity and not be taken advantage of.”

If you're pro-illegal, you're depriving black US citizens of jobs.

I did everything I could to fuck the other 13 Republicans in the primaries in the ass. Then made damn sure I spread every last minutia of negative Oppo Memes I could find on Hillary to make damn sure I screwed her in the poop shoot too!

I was a huge Trump for President fan since I was in my early 20's and every Talk show loved, I mean absolutely LOVED having Trump on to espouse his Ross Perotesque ideas onto the dotting public.
