Lol what
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Humorous should never be confused with dangerous, because there is certainly nothing humorous about Trump.

Now that the Mexican peso is losing value I wonder how long they will refuse to cooperate on paying for the wall?

I find that difficult to believe considering your ignorance in regard to the distinction between their, there, and they're.

Not a bad idea actually. The EU can give us billions to buld a wall at the six counties to keep ye brits out after the shit hits the windmill.

I love to see him try that

If it's one thing that Southpark taught me ir's that you don't fuck with Canada.

I'm betting CL's favoured solution is to go to the poor people and tell them "make youselves not poor, we won't let you in otherwise". It is the catholic position after all.

And here are his sources. It should cover every point made in the video, plus a good number of points from the rest of the episode.
Simply put, the drawbacks, such as... :
- Being the biggest and most expensive architectural boondoggle in American history, a project of such magnitude that has only been pulled off once in recorded history; and it will cost even more than $20 million when you take into account staffing and maintaining it so the work of enforcing it can actually happen.
- Having to span 2000 miles, which includes everything from mountains and rivers to villages and people's homes and even splitting a college campus in two. You really don't think this is going to cause serious trouble, especially given that Mexico clearly doesn't want to play ball.
- A surprisingly high number of illegal immigrants coming in with methods that would not be affected, from the cartels' tunnels to simple visa fraud and airplanes.
- Its being unpopular, particularly along the border, with 72% of Americans at the border (and more on the Mexican side) being against it.
... Outweigh any benefits, especially given that this is an extremely shitty time, since that actual border crossings are actually a lot lower than they have been; the fact that the only border between two nations that aren't officially killing each other that's more militarised than US-Mexico border today is the border between North and South Korea.
Also, if you opposed Obamacare mainly because you were afraid we'd still be paying for its implementation generations from now, you have no business being for this shit, since this would be worse in every way, more money for even less return.
Having the wall will make me feel better and that's very important.
Hahahaha. $15 billion for you to "feel better"? What, do you want a $15 billion safe space?
