    Yeah - of course - there's nothing better than a dictatorship. Well, except one run by someone not quite as smart as a monkey's ass.   The right kind of people . . . your kind of people.

    Oh good grief! Despite your wimpering the Trump administration is not a dictatorship. He has to work within the bounds of congress and the courts just like his predecessors. BTW - I'm pretty sure that your hero (Barack Hussein Obama II) issued more executive orders than Trump at this point in his presidency and more than any previous POTUS in history. Talk about a dictator... :rolleyes:

      As always, make up "facts" you like and blurt them out. Even a little effort to look this up (by the "master mis-data quoter") would have found yhou the following: Google[^] Which shows that in 2 1/2 years, Hump is already up to nearly half of what Obama did in eight years. Who knows? Perhaps some day, when you find the time, you can stop making stuff up to create the world you want to be true and find out you're wrong about nearly everything.

        President Donald Trump is so eager to complete hundreds of miles of border fence ahead of the 2020 presidential election that he has directed aides to fast-track billions of dollars' worth of construction contracts, aggressively seize private land and disregard environmental rules, according to current and former officials involved with the project. (1) He also has told worried subordinates that he will pardon them of any potential wrongdoing should they have to break laws to get the barriers built quickly, those officials said. (2) (1) Talk about government intervention! Leave it to Hump and the Republicscum! (2) And who the fuck cares about laws? I could speculate on the contracts turning out to be no-bid (shades of Bush II, Iraq and Halliburton). Don't worry: Moscow Mitch won't let anything happen to him.

        1943? If I understand your analogy correctly... Berlin's wall was built in 1961

        M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

          I stand corrected. But half of Trump's orders were simply reversing Obama's orders. Do they really count? :laugh:

            Nope - not the wall. I'm considering racism, slander, and all the rest that the Hump's using as his signature campaign, and to where it evolved. I did pick 1943 as something that would be readily recognizable as the events started much earlier than that but most people haven't a clue to how it unfolded. Speaking of which - if the Hump's financial meltdown of the US is a planned event, there is have a blueprint on how to leverage a bad economy into absolute power.

              Even if everything you claim is true... it's still better than the open borders being promoted by Democrats.

                  They are going to pay for the wall. It's called Trumpenomics. You know - like China's paying the tariffs he imposed on imports. Basically, if you look at his financial track record, bankruptcies seem to be the goal.

                            BS! They don't want illegals detained. They won't budget money to border patrol or a wall. They want a path to citizenship for all illegals (regardless of how they arrived). They want to provide all social benefits to illegals (including free healthcare). That is the VERY DEFINITION of open borders!!!!

                              This is false. During Obama administration 5 million illegals got deported. Migrants at the border are asylum seekers.

                              Your are right for the wall, but not for the rest: [Border wall: Democrats give Trump no money for barrier in first offer](https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2019/01/31/democrats-opening-border-security-offer/2732549002/) From the article:

                              Quote:

                              The Democratic proposal did include: about $22 billion in total funding for Customs and Border Protection and Immigration and Customs Enforcement $675 million for scanners at points of entry $502 million for "humanitarian concerns at the border" such as food and medical care $400 million in border security technology, 1,000 new customs agents $156.7 million for new boats, planes and sensors.

                                    So, I looked at many news sources for this both left and right and even saw some videos and it looks like he was clearly joking when he said that. I will say that most of the left-leaning news sources DO NOT provide that context, and people like you get all fired up and butthurt.

                                      President Donald Trump is so eager to complete hundreds of miles of border fence ahead of the 2020 presidential election that he has directed aides to fast-track billions of dollars' worth of construction contracts, aggressively seize private land and disregard environmental rules, according to current and former officials involved with the project. (1) He also has told worried subordinates that he will pardon them of any potential wrongdoing should they have to break laws to get the barriers built quickly, those officials said. (2) (1) Talk about government intervention! Leave it to Hump and the Republicscum! (2) And who the fuck cares about laws? I could speculate on the contracts turning out to be no-bid (shades of Bush II, Iraq and Halliburton). Don't worry: Moscow Mitch won't let anything happen to him.

                                      When Trump gasses 12 million people to death you can liken him to Hitler. Until then you make yourself look a fool.

                                          He's not "taking the land". The process is called "eminent domain", and the government is required to pay "just compentsation" for land they use for "the public good". They do it all the time. If the government cuts a check and mails it to the land owner, that qualifies as payment. Whether or not the owner cashes the check is another thign entirely. BTW, you covered everythin else - why didn't you claim Trump is somehow a racist?
