This is all true, however, Trump has never said the exact words "THE MEDIA IS THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE"

Also, Captain Kirk never did say the exact words "Beam me up Scotty"

So what if it is stupid? Let's say he spent 100 million out of the 1 billion and made 100 million dollars worth of "stupid wall" in a "stupid area"

Government already wastes that amount on a daily basis on much more pointless things, and if you want to get all political about it, why wouldn't you just let Trump waste the money so you can see someone more competent get elected instead of insuring Trump gets elected with the same exact promises as 2016? Cause I guarantee, unless his opposition has something concrete "pun intended" to point to that shows his incompetence, he will be in the white house again in 2020. With the economy booming as it is, his opponents should welcome the idea that Trump would hang himself with his own wall, and 100 million dollars would be an extremely cheap hit job.

None of his opposition actually thinks he will do that by the way, which is why your fears are completely unfounded.

So the existing wall that is already up...hundreds of miles... is inherently stupid? Or do you think the border patrol knows where it is stupid or where it is not stupid on a case by case basis, and walls are actually not "inherently stupid?" 

I mean I guess if you want to call concrete rock and steel inherently stupid for having no sentience, I can see how that is a valid opinion, if not rocksist.

Trump already said he wasn't in it for the money.

Trump is probably the only politician an American history to lose money by being elected.

Just to be clear, it's both parties that are being heavily influenced by slave labor industries colluding with Mexican coyotes.

How do you fight corruption like that?

This is probably going to go to the SCOTUS to determine if the president can have a legitimate opinion on what constitutes an emergency. It actually doesn't look too bad against him considering how the travel ban ruling went.

when the Congress is bought and paid for by the slave labor traders in America colluding with Mexican coyotes, it's a national emergency. Lincoln would approve.

The media often misquotes Trump: "Trump said the press is the enemy of the people"

Which is really funny, because it shows how fake the media is by regurgitating a lie endlessly.

Trump on more than a few occasions has said the fake news is the enemy of the people.

Every media outlet that keeps repeating that lie is the enemy of the people.

You might be right about that. Even Chris Cuomo raked AOC over the coals over the question of how to pay for her new green deals.

Let's pray there is no support for that.

Yep. There is no real reason for the government to hire TSA when the airports can do the same thing more efficiently and with less cost.

22 Airports already have replaced TSA with private screeners.

So address social justice and social interventionism. 2 critical key components of democratic socialism.

Also, why did you bring Stalinism to the table? I did not.

You sound like one of those robots programmed to think everything bad is Hitler.

Uther suggested that 30% socialism was too much for Venezuela. How much would be too much for America?

Granting leave to men would go a long way to equalizing job opportunities too as employers won't see only women as a liability due to childbirth.

This is why, knowing how the chemistry of the brain works, you MUST go into understanding politics with the mindset that every politician is untrustworthy... and you should never listen seriously to anything they say... and you should focus on what they actually do.

That seems like normal brain function though. If your brain is conditioned to see person X as evil, then it will construct narratives to support that, whether it is real or not.

Even the smug leftist media is forced to ask AOC how she is going to pay for her programs. Amazing how the state propaganda machine is compelled to define a limit to Socialism by daring to ask how to pay for it.

Nobody cares what you call it. We just want to know how you are going to pay for it.

Something Sweden has done that I would like to see implemented in the USA is taxation on the poor. Sweden has around 40% taxes on the poor. Taxation on the poor, besides the obvious revenue generated, provides a great incentive for the poor to ask a radically different question at the voting booth. Instead of asking what their country can do for them, they will instead ask the more pertinent question: How are you going to pay for it?

This Swedish policy has done wonders to curtail corruption with a more vigilant electorate concerned about how their personal money is being spent.
