    Most of the time the light comes on, unless of course they literally drink the koolaid. They have to be shocked out of it though. Personal experience has to come into play because they don’t care what happens to anyone but them

    Have we asked them for help before, and they refused? Does that account for the arm-twisting?

    Their own opposition leader has been begging Trudeau for months to send Canadian troops to the border without success. Trudeau’s government and Mexico’s government have had a lackadaisical attitude to their borders for a long time.

    Anyway, why is Trump granting these delays? That sovereign fund isn't going to enrich itself.

    That doesn't answer my question. Have we approached them for assistance?

    It is not my job to keep you up on current events. We assume before you decide to participate in the debate that you have already brought yourself up to speed. If there is a topic you are a little light on, perhaps you should sit back and watch.

    Clearly the President who negotiated the USMCA was a gross incompetent. Just ask Donald J. Trump version 2.0.

    Yes, the Trudeau regime was asked emphatically in the weeks leading up to inauguration to step up their effort at the border with us. Migrants are fleeing to Canada for safe haven who would have otherwise been subject to deportation here in the States. Trump does not want Canada to effectively serve as another sanctuary city. Trump truly cares about Americans. Joe Biden sold out Americans.

    The TDS is off the charts in this thread.

    There could be a Trumpgasm du jure gold, silver and bronze medal in this thread alone (if 3 posts could even be isolated from the pack).

    Perhaps i should award em to posters for their body of work in this thread, rather than to particular individual posts...

    Either way, one thing stands clearly established: even males are capable of having multiple Trumpgasms. Lol!

    :p:D:p

    Just stop. Putting words into my mouth is a teenager tactic. I’m just saying if you want to stop it, try focusing on the 99%. Simple math, but no doubt mouth isn’t your strong suit.

    Trump truly cares about himself. Also, with no immigrants, who’s going to do the work lazy entitled Americans won’t do? Not exactly a well thought out plan, genius.

    Thank you for noting I am a genius, but I didn’t know Trump was ending immigration. That’s news to me. I am sorry you have such a harsh view of your countrymen. It reads like you have a more favorable view of illegal immigrants than you do your own countrymen.

    This thread is definitely doing a good job of drawing out progressives and their true feelings, that’s for sure.
