How do you feel about Donald Trump declaring a national emergency to build border wall?

Barbarian asks:
You want five billion dollars to stop one illegal immigrant?



Then try this, it would be five times as effective:

Find five people who want to illegally come to the United States. Set up a trust so that as long as they stay in their country, they'll get a billion dollars, over 20 years.

Why pay them to stay in their own countries when paying to keep them out makes far more common sense?

I think there's no emergency, evidenced by the fact that after declaring this "emergency" he immediately left for Palm Beach.

Since I've heard that a lot of the money he wants to steal is already spent, and there are several states suing the administration, I doubt that he will be successful. Good.

He will succeed, and maintain a second term.

That seems like a major leap to me, honestly. All the indications are that the """emergency""" declaration is not entirely legal, and even if it is, the money is already bespoke. It's not going to suddenly make a wall appear like Red Alert 2.

They could already have the wall built, right now in another location... ready to be erected. All they need is a gullible, distracted populace to offer up the sacrifices of their own demise - their freedom in thought and agency.

These forums are a microcosm of the harm others unwittingly do to themselves by exhibition of their faith in men - whether it is politics, science, or religion. Huma s are begging to be controlled, and there are many who are ready and willing to exploit their psychology.

See, if I was a sociopath, I wouldn't even be on these forums. I would just exploit millions of people I know can be played like a book - and make a fortune on other people's ignorance and indifference. It would be easy, but I would also likely go to hell.

This is the last season of "America." It's very clear we are in the last few episodes of the final season of this reality assault on our psychology and livelihood. But, it is all according to plan, as America was made to fall (to mark a coming age.)
