  1. What a week for Pres. Trump. Not so much for the Libs and Haters. I golfed today with Haters and I started the day talking Trump. Guarantee you I added 10 strokes to their score. Haa!

  2. Like most, I certainly had doubts about what Trump would be like as president.

    Three years later, he just doesnt give up. He fights and never quits. And even the most brainwashed of regressives can see how he has blasted numerous corrupt establishment types.

    While still a bit skeptical… He could very well be best presidentever. If he can do something about spending after 2020 …. He will be remembered.

    1. If so, he may forever change the concept of what makes a president. He is not a lawyer, and this is his first elective office. He will confirm what Ronald Reagan started, but even Reagan was governor of California, and head of SAG. Imagine, the two greatest presidents since the Civil War, and neither of them a lawyer. Counting Lincoln, the three greatest presidents since the Founding Fathers are all Republicans.

      1. Indeed, my friend. That puts a sharp punctuation point on “outsider” Presidents. And it is instructional to note that even the Democraps have reluctantly admitted … after the fact … that Reagan was a superb President. However, Reagan was HATED with the most vile attacks during his Presidency. I wonder if the Demoncreeps will be similarly circumspect in their post-Trump opinions.

        It’s IMPOSSIBLE to deny Trump’s success as an American President. Since we ONLY do “first-something” American Presidents in recent years … let me suggest that Trump is our FIRST Real-Estate Developer President. A highly successful “hyphen” President.

        1. True, Kenji. But the ‘progressives’ who praise Reagan now try to claim he was actually one of them.

          Whenever, the Left refer to Trump’s previous work experience, they refer to him as an ex-reality show star. That’s sort of like referring to Troy Aikman as a football TV announcer. True, but he also did something else.

  3. This is not the victory it sounds like. The money will mostly be used to replace old fencing, not what Americans were promised—-a rock-solid barrier that only the suicidal or truly foolhardy would consider trying to penetrate, stretching from San Diego to Brownsville.

    I’m old enough to remember when Western financial institutions were happy to lend the German Democratic Republic all the money it needed to build such a barrier—to keep people from fleeing the GDR.

    1. It’s a victory against the deep state – SC sided with the President over the deep state. Shows he was right, the deep state was wrong, the SC declined to act as the enforcer of their open border wishes.

      It also reaffirms his prerogative a s commander in chief to decide national security policy.

      1. “National security” is now the last refuge of the scoundrel. FFS “national security” is being used as a lame excuse for tariffs.

  4. The lebrlcrats looked like wussy soy boy’s this week.
    Now pres Trump is getting the 2.5 billion dollars to build 100 miles of border wall and security forces, so say the scotus.
    Lebrlcrats are humiliated and furious, it’s called the Trump curse.
    They are going on a 42 day vacation, some may have to use their mental health insurance.

  5. Heh.

    I was called out by unme for stating that Potus Trump was gonna use the extra military budget money approved to build the wall. Unme referred from my comment that “kids this is what your brains look like when you on drugs and don’t stay in school. “ blah blah blah blah

    What’s it like to be wrong all the time?
    All the ducking time?

    Unme Andrew AlanSucks,CKOM 650 lolz, in the end always wrong. Ya they get the upper hand in a slight skirmish (victory in 9th circuit) and act like they just owned you and then get humiliated AF in the championship game (80% Supreme Court appeals by 9th overturned, eh!) Not once have they or their ilk ever come back and say ya you guys were right we were wrong. They never admit it. Just take the lost and move to the next battlefield. It’s pathetic. They just can’t let it go just like they still haven’t gotten over the fact that he won an election almost 3 years ago. What kind of F$$ked-UP you gotta be to still want to fight that?

    FFS…

    1. Attack and never admit you’re wrong are some of the rules of the liberals patron saint, Saul Alinsky.

      It wasn’t until DT came along, that a republican had the guts, and intelligence to beat them at their own game. Without him, the Democrats would be driving the national agenda.

    2. I love how I’m so immense that I live in multiple people’s heads at once. Too bad there’s not much else going on in these heads.

      The rest of your post is just pure projection.

  6. think about nancy pelosi’s inane comment that the president is comprising our military readiness. the president has been requesting a tremendous increase in our defense budget every year. now a mere 2.5 billion gets reallocated and the democrats are having a hissy and the whole time were responsible for the diminished capacities of our military over the last ten years. the president is a wiz at finance and it shows that he knows how to find funds for a project when they are needed, even with the fierce headwinds he faces from the swamp.

  7. My lefty friends never give up no matter the facts or the lies. Trump does exactly what Trudeau 1 followed in the Alinsky rules, never defend, alway attack and they can’t handle it.

  8. Replacing existing wall and you can bet the lawyers and financiers will make sure nothing effective stems the flow of invaders.
    Believe it when I see it

  9. And yet my local news announced, this morning, that THIS SCOTUS decision is being APPEALED by the ACLU. Forgive my ignorance … how does one appeal a decision by the US Supreme Court?

    And what interest does the ACLU have with US Border protection? Is it a “civil right” for foreigners to violate our sovereign borders?

    1. Border Protection is the basis of some of the most egregious civil rights violations so yes this is very relevant to ACLU.

  10. This is essentially institutionalized lawlessness. Now congressional budgeting just doesn’t mean anything. It’s almost enough to make me reconsider my hostility to stacking the court.

    That being said, it’s still never getting built. Even if it was, there’s this thing called a ‘tunnel’ that would bork it. Another thing called a ‘ladder’ that does the same.

        1. So you’re saying it takes the SAME amount of effort to stumble around the desert with a 30 ft ladder in 100 degree heat (without being noticed) or the SAME amount of effort to dig a tunnel for many weeks in the heat (again without being noticed) than it takes to simply WALK across?

          1. Drug cartels do it all the time. Coyotes are likely amused by your pretensions of power over them.

  11. Speaking of the wall, I’ll conflate two key planks of the Democratic 2020 platform:
    1. Open border (some even say abolish ICE)
    2. Free medical care for illegal aliens, ah, undocumented immigrants
    I wonder if those people ever put the two together to see what they mean.
    Together, they want to make it a national policy that anyone at all of the 6 billion people in the world, and anyone at all is exactly what an open border means, can just saunter across the border and receive a lifetime of free medical care, presumably including all pre-existing conditions. And who will pay for all of that? Why 300 million American citizens.
    I wonder if those people realize how many trillions of dollars that will require if everyone in the world took them seriously.
    What a bunch of total idiots.

    1. 1 & 2 are a fantasy of yours. No one in the Dem field is proposing this (aside from abolishing ICE, which is a damn good idea. We got along fine without it).
