That's a lot of "bad guys" to be passing through a city to not commit many crimes in said city.*

Like I said... Immigration is a problem... a wall isn't the solution... additionally running roughshod over the Constitution certainly isn't.

In your opinion the wall isn't a problem. There are so many people with first-hand knowledge who vehemently disagree.

They are stupid narratives because you disagree?

So if Obama declared national emergencies 13 times and Bush 12 times were they also "running roughshod" over the constitution?

No.

Because they were Emergencies.

"I didn't have to do this but I wanted to do it faster." - Trump

Emergency:
noun
a serious, unexpected, and often dangerous situation requiring immediate action

Congress also didn't appropriate money to address the said "Emergency" just 24 hours prior? Congress didn't also pass legislation calling for the removal of said "Emergency" immediately after its declaration.

Sorry dude.... I don't condone power grabs that are unconstitutional...regardless of who is in power.

As far as the narratives... they are stupid narratives and the Department of Homeland Security also agreed when they said the majority of drugs, human trafficking, and illegal entry occurs at our Ports of Entry.

Especially if it is a virtual wall that exists only in the mind of The Donald.

Quote:
He wrote on Twitter that 'newly built walls' were stopping caravans of Central American migrants from entering the U.S., and that '[w]e have already built large new sections' in addition to ongoing renovations.
The head of U.S. Customs and Border Protection says otherwise.

Quote:
The Trump administration has not built any walls to protect previously unbarricaded sections of America's southern border, U.S. Customs and Border Protection confirmed exclusively to DailyMail.com on Thursday.

The majority of illegals residing in this country entered legally and overstayed their visas. Once here, very few are ever caught and deported. I would guess that those illegals are more likely to be able to find work than those that walk across the southern border. I am not aware of Trump or anyone in his administration ever mentioning this issue.

Quote:
Crossing the border is not the way "the large majority of persons now become undocumented," the Center for Migration Studies (CMS) said in a recent report. Two-thirds of those who joined the undocumented population did so by entering with a valid visa and then overstaying their period of admission, the center reported.

Nancy has the House - what is she doing?
A wall is NOT the only solution, but so far neither party has done jack shit about the problem, other than fight Trump. I see him as the ONLY one in DC trying to do anything. Certainly not Nancy and UpChuckie.

The GOP had the House, the Senate, and the White House for 2 years. What did they accomplish? I agree that a wall may be the best solution in some cases, but I don't hear any discussion of alternatives coming from either side.

If Trump was really trying to accomplish anything, he would do what he claims to be so good at, negotiate. I haven't seen much of that between Trump and his own party, let alone with the Dems.
