Yeah, but it's even worse since he's not just fighting the Double Government he's fighting the elected politicians too.

2019-11-18 14:16:51 UTC  

Sure, but I doubt he couldn't have accounted for that, for one
And for another, if you're going to talk up your dealmaking the public is going to want to see tangible results. You have to maintain reasonable expectations

2019-11-18 14:17:08 UTC  

He has had lot of tangilble results

2019-11-18 14:17:25 UTC  

The people whining about the wall need to quit being such whiny cucks

2019-11-18 14:17:46 UTC  

We've got the Mexican Military helping us send "migrants" back

2019-11-18 14:17:48 UTC  

Part of this gets back into how the current set up completely fucks the incentive structure

2019-11-18 14:17:55 UTC  

we've basically got the cartels helping us secure the border LUL

2019-11-18 14:18:06 UTC  

Incentive structure for what?

2019-11-18 14:18:12 UTC  

Politicians

2019-11-18 14:18:18 UTC  

I didn't vote last election

2019-11-18 14:18:22 UTC  

It's more visible in dem primaries though

2019-11-18 14:18:24 UTC  

I'm voting this time and I'm voting Trump

2019-11-18 14:18:33 UTC  

Because he's the least insane option

2019-11-18 14:18:43 UTC  

Which I never thought I'd say about Trump

2019-11-18 14:18:49 UTC  

Sure, but most people are going to vote for gibs

2019-11-18 14:19:02 UTC  

Whichever side offers them the best personal gain

2019-11-18 14:19:15 UTC  

He's not losing any substantial number of voters over the Wall

2019-11-18 14:19:45 UTC  

Even if they're upset brainlets about the wall they're still going to vote for him.

2019-11-18 14:19:53 UTC  

My point was less so that, and more that the loss is part of a larger issue

2019-11-18 14:20:12 UTC  

No wall working on security vs Open Borders and free healthcare / education for illegals

2019-11-18 14:20:18 UTC  

???

2019-11-18 14:20:20 UTC  

Sure, theres definitely an aspect of this that is contingent on the Dems being retarded

2019-11-18 14:20:24 UTC  

but in the whole it doesn't matter

2019-11-18 14:20:28 UTC  

yes people will be disappointed

2019-11-18 14:20:36 UTC  

but he can point to the fortificationa nd building that has occured

2019-11-18 14:20:41 UTC  

the fact that he got Mexico to help

2019-11-18 14:20:48 UTC  

he literally got Mexico to help pay for the wall

2019-11-18 14:21:18 UTC  

Mexico sold the Presidential jet to help pay for border security.

2019-11-18 14:21:48 UTC  

The question is always "Compared to what"

2019-11-18 14:21:52 UTC  

How broadly known is that though?

2019-11-18 14:22:37 UTC  

So these people that are upset about the wall are going to vote for the party that has been promoting no security and welfare to illegals?

2019-11-18 14:22:51 UTC  

I also wouldn't be surprised if he brings up that he got Mexico to help.

2019-11-18 14:23:11 UTC  

I wasnt aware that the only action you could take other than vote for Trump was vote for dems

2019-11-18 14:23:33 UTC  

Well you can flush your vote down the toilet if you want.

2019-11-18 14:24:05 UTC  

Which most people do
Tbh I dont consider it "wasted" if people decide not to vote, particularly if they were uninformed

2019-11-18 14:24:07 UTC  

vote McaAfee 👌

2019-11-18 14:26:12 UTC  

I don't understand what your point is I guess.

2019-11-18 14:26:12 UTC  

But yeah the current incentive structure is:
Results in 4-8 years (perceived or otherwise)
Gibs, and no/few cuts to gibs
No "hard decisions"

2019-11-18 14:27:48 UTC  

My point is that if people dont see Trump doing enough they go back to being apathetic, because much of Trump's support base was anyway. He'll get boosted by Dems playing chicken and that getting tons of media promotion but theres very little promoting Trump himself - a natural extension of starting a war with the media (justified though it may have been)

2019-11-18 14:28:25 UTC  

People aren't going to be Apathetic because of how insane the dems are

2019-11-18 14:28:33 UTC  

I was apathetic last election
