30 Democrats In Puerto Rico With 109 Lobbyists For Weekend Despite Shutdown

[Oldstyle]

Its not Trump's tantrum....its the American peoples tantrum...we want the border secure like they promised after 9-11....build the wall....

A Quinnipiac poll of 1,147 voters reached on landlines or cell phones from Dec. 12-17 found that 54 percent of respondents opposed the wall and 43 percent supported it. A Harvard CAPS/Harris online survey of 1,407 registered voters conducted Dec. 24-26 found that 56 percent of those surveyed did not support a wall, while 44 percent did.

Just 35 percent of those surveyed supported including money for the wall in a federal spending bill, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll of 2,440 adults conducted online Dec. 21-25.

More than two-thirds of Americans don’t think the wall should be a priority, according to a poll of 1,075 adults by NPR, PBS News Hour and Marist. That poll was conducted Nov. 28-Dec. 4 using live telephone interviews to reach both landlines and cell phones.

Regardless of Americans’ opinions about the wall, they’re not happy with how the government shutdown is being handled by either Congress or Trump. Just 18 percent of Americans polled say they approve of how Congress has handled the shutdown, with 60 percent disapproving, a new HuffPost/YouGov survey finds. As for Trump, 38 percent approve of how he’s handling it, and 49 percent disapprove, according to the poll.

Well...since all of you liberals in America would disapprove of Trump even if he ended world hunger...got rid of every nuclear weapon on the planet...and ended global warming forever...I'm not shocked that you disapprove of his wanting to secure the border!

Securing the border is the right thing to do. It should have been done decades ago but you liberals reneged on the deal that Tip O'Neil made with Ronald Reagan to do just that.

Why don't you get back with me after he ends world hunger and gets rif of all the nuclear weapons on the planet, or stops global climate change, and I'll reevaluate that pig. So far, he's just been a spoiled despot who cares more about himself than the country. Building a useless wall and securing the border aren't the same thing.

Why would a wall be "useless"? The reason Democrats don't want a wall is that it WILL keep people from crossing the border that they want as future Democratic voters. If the wall really were useless then they'd be voting for it.

Are you against citizens voting any way they choose?

Not at all...what I AM against is flooding the entire country with illegals simply because you think they'll vote for you.

Are you against entitlements? Because if you aren't then you have to face the cold hard truth that you can't have open borders and an entitlement society because you can't pay for it. So which do you want most, Bulldog? The cradle to the grave land of entitlements that you on the left continually seek or the votes to keep liberal Democrats in power? You can't have both and trying to do so will destroy this nation.

So? Until Trump’s tantrum is over there’s no point to staying in D.C

Its not Trump's tantrum....its the American peoples tantrum...we want the border secure like they promised after 9-11....build the wall....

As for Trump, 38 percent approve of how he’s handling it, and 49 percent disapprove, according to the poll.

From the Quinnipiac poll:

An overwhelming majority of U.S. voters believe that security along the southern border is a problem, with 48 percent saying that it’s a “serious problem” and 38 percent saying it’s a “minor problem.” Only 14 percent said that border security is “not even a small priority,” the Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll survey found.

Of course security at the southern border is a concern. That doesn't mean a wall is a good idea. There are lots better ways to deal with the problem than a dumb assed wall. Just because 48% say it is a problem doesn't mean 48% want a wall.

You don't believe that a wall is a good first step to establishing a secure border? Please tell me what the good first step should be.

Come on Trump, get on with it, declare a national emergency, get the shutdown over, and get the wall built. The dems are not interested in governing, they are girding for 2020 and all out war.

Their obligation was to throw parties in Puerto Rico?

Best solution?

Simply stop policing the border for a few days.

Let the flood come.

Let there home invasions, robberies, even murders go un-prosecuted. In short, give The Democrat Party what it really wants. Then try re-polling.

Those are great ideas and I hope they're included in any deal that passes. But what is so wrong about including physical barriers where a large number of people are walking over on a daily basis? The Rio Grande vector is really active, probably because there is no fencing or wall along the river. You have seen the people coming over in rafts. Sometimes they swim.
Then they walk through the desert, and most of them make it. A wall would be sensible there, if it could be built.

I just watched a news report where they showed THREE tunnels going under existing border wall.

Three.

They could spend the money on, oh, I don't know, things Republicans know nothing about.

Things like:

training

more border agents

equipment

drones

weapons

body armor

Instead, they want to spend billions on a pile of rocks because Republicans think rocks are "hi tech".

Besides, after Republicans finish devastating this country, no one will want to come here.
