CONGRESS WOULD NEED TO REPEAL THAT PROVISION

Time to find a new design

I don't know, this could be interesting. If he did this, he'd have my trust back. As of right now, I'm not on the kool-aid yet.

By the way,

yes,

I know the """wall""" is scheduled to be built on Monday,

that's 33 miles of EXISITING fencing from the 2006 Secure Fence Act

doesn't count

we're aware of the 1.6 bn

and yes, it doesn't count.

I have no clue where this will lead, but I am still going to cling to hope.

That provision only covers the 1.6 billion, right?

Doesn't say whether the army could use their funding to build it.

yeah, that's the explicit wall funding part of the bill

It either doesn't apply or can be interpreted to not apply to other funding.

So we could get around that provision.

you know, all things considered, the one thing no one can deny about Trump is that he knows how to keep people on the edge of their seats

this is the most unpredictable president in history

Explain to me this

for better or for worse

if Trump can just build a wall with no Senate funds,

why didn't he do that the first day of his presidency?

Listen, I don't know any of the specifics, I'm not in the government

I'm just sort of seeing how this plays out

Don't take that to mean "be idle" btw

We must take action, of course.

I don't trust Trump at this point

He says one thing and then reverses himself a minute later

Stop freaking out Rosenberg

I have no clue what he'll do.

He pisses me off and he gives me hope, I have not a damned clue about his course of action

so frustrating for those who keep track

It really is

This sort of reminds me of a foreign policy strategy from the nixon days

except jacked up to 11

"The madman theory"

Keep everyone on their feet, friends and enemies. It could be a liability or asset to us. That's really the only explanation of the man that makes sense to me.

No one is safe in his admin, his fucking son-in-law had his security clearance downgraded, that gives you an idea of how he operates.

Look,

I'm not believing anything until I look outside my window and I can't see the Mexico

The only indispensable thing in Trump's government is Trump.
