1. Regards this GD wall.. If they can protect Area 51 with no wall...why not do it there?

They use every sensor known to man, and theres NO WALL around area 51. The idea that a wall is the only option is bullshit.

Next he’ll be putting his name on the Moon in neon lights so we can see it from Earth.

4. He "knows the kickback business/grift better than anybody"

That wall is his huckleberry into perpetuity.
As an aside. When you work for someone else in a company, (don knows this), you aren't allowed to create business deals on your own with the companies cache, OR use information etc to do deals to enrich yourself under the auspices, to the detriment of your employer. Isn't that just standard knowledge for folks? Don works for us regardless if hes gop or D. He's our agent. Isnt there just basic civil liability right there to stop this guy in his tracks until the criminal stuff catches up?? Just thinking out loud's all.

It’s happened before. That would be so karmic! Like David using a mere slingshot to bring big bad Goliath Down.

5. Fed Prison Guards ARE suing the president I think.

They can kid themselves that Fed Employees are all Ds and slap each other on the back convinced they are causing Liberal Tears. We vastly outnumber them. I bet there ARE a lot of Democrats in Fed Jobs. Thank God they are bc they have a cnscience and usually they do it out of a true sense of service to country. Not inside dealing at the taxpayers expense.

The workers think it won’t last long because they underestimate the true depravity of shutting down the government. I think all of us have.

This is where Trump excels as long as he is the one with the power.

If it’s the other way around he runs to his base to squeal like a pig for their protection.
