The reason Trump's wall "isn't working" is because he had this wacky vision that it would be accompanied by some kind of agency tasked with patrolling the border.
@binarp21
Exactly. It's much harder to get over a wall than to walk over a line in the sand. That doesn't mean it's impossible. You can't stop every bad guy, but you need to implement measures that will stop most of them.
"b-b-but republicans struck down a bipartisan bill to fix the border!"
no, the democrats put forward a bill to fund more foreign wars and tried using the US border as a bargaining chip. MAGA refused to be extorted
"This is all trumps fault!" cope and seethe
@The503mayor
Because instead of doing their jobs and introducing legislation that *just* protects the border, democrats fill it with fluff like more funding for foreign wars. Why wont democrats simply introduce legislation the fixes the border instead of using the border as a bargaining chip?
We had to do a cartoon on
@DonaldJTrumpJr
and

This is going to absolutely shake you to your core James but the largest stockholding individuals in the country having to sell off massive amounts of stock every year to pay a 25% unrealized capital gains tax will absolutely crush every median income earners 401k
@DastardlyMattie
@The503mayor
Protecting the border is a non negotiable duty of the government. Democrats actively sabotaging the border, lowering quality of life for citizens, and then promising to stop if and only if we give them money to fund a foreign war is not a compromise, it's extorsion and treason.
Got a chance to chat with my long time pal and collaborator,
@EricDJuly
! It was a fantastic conversation, and because it went for over 2 hours, we're gonna be streaming it at 5pm EST tonight rather then 6. COME CHECK IT OUT!
All snark, no substance. They have no answer to this question, so school yard insults are their only tool. Any other strategy opens them up to the embarrassment of never having given a moments thought to one of the most fundamental aspects of their worldview.
OH BOY! Trump is asking for recounts and The Supreme Court may be taking a little looksy! Will the Democratic Party's brilliant strategy of making life hell for Supreme Court appointees back fire? Who knows!
A pathetic sidestep.
@GovTimWalz
You abandoned your unit and you lied about going to war.
Deflecting by bringing up your child or your dog being insulted is cowardly.
Once again, we find you using those who you should be protecting as a shield to avoid your responsibilities.
CNN: “You said you carried weapons in war, but you’ve never deployed in a war zone…”
Walz: “… I speak candidly. I wear my emotions on my sleeves…”
CNN: “… You said that you were in war. Did you misspeak?”
Walz: “… My grammar is not always correct.”
This is the GREATEST Pumpkin in the History of Pumpkins. Okay? I know it. You know it. The best pumpkin. A lot of people - a LOT of people - they make pumpkins and they're just okay! But this pumpkin? Outstanding.
@Stroker_Ace_7
Because instead of securing our border (as is their job) the democrats decided to play politics and made funding for the border contingent upon sending copious amounts of money to Ukraine. Republicans want the border closed, Democrats want it as a bargaining chip.
Had the wonderful opportunity to have

Hey everyone! My conversation with
@MiaCathell
is going to be streaming in a few minutes. She did the brave and difficult work of reporting on the gay pedo ring in atlanta and I really believe this conversation is worth the watch
Incredible how quickly "We can't afford a wall" turned into "You can only have 20 billion to secure the border if you give us 98 billion for foreign wars"
I genuinely do not get it. People do this all the time. I can understand naively doing this if you found the video on another platform and you wanted it on twitter- but you clearly saw it here and screen captured it- and then erased our ending plug for our website, which is the

Are you being obtuse on purpose? A wall and border patrol don't stop 100% of people 100% of the time. But having to scale a wall with a rope ladder like you're Indiana Jones *and* having to avoid border patrol is infinitely harder than just walking across a completely unguarded
