Face it, Trump has had a lifetime of spending money that:

Isn't his.

Has no intention of paying back.

It's called using leverage.

No, it's called cheating people out of what they are due.

The immigration problem is one which the GOP will never agree to solve because it is in their best interest to keep it a problem. This is one problem we can solve but won't.

GOP lawmakers’ reality: They won’t cut Planned Parenthood

Congressional Republicans are giving up on years of promises to cut federal funding for Planned Parenthood as Democrats prepare to take control of the House, a major setback for the conservative movement after controlling both chambers of Congress and the White House for the past two years.

The futility of the congressional efforts was clear as the lame-duck session of Congress convened this week and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) briefly tried — and failed — to rally support for one last bid to push through Planned Parenthood cuts, Obamacare repeal and other conservative priorities. But most Republicans, already rattled by the possibility of a shutdown next week triggered by President Donald Trump’s border wall demands, dismissed his bid.

That's infuriated anti-abortion groups, who plan to take their fight to state legislatures and the courts.

“They had two years to defund Planned Parenthood, and they failed,” said Kristan Hawkins, president of the anti-abortion group Students for Life of America. “It’s a huge frustration. We worked so hard to elect supposedly these pro-life Republican officials, and we expected results.”

I thought I heard Trump was meeting with Pelosi and Schumer this morning --- Anyone see anything come from that meeting? Too much news going on.

(CNN)A triple amputee Air Force veteran and motivational speaker is asking the 63 million Americans who voted for President Donald Trump to chip in $80 apiece for the border wall.

The total would meet Trump's request for $5 billion to build a wall along the US southern border with Mexico, with $40 million to spare. Trump said Wednesday, amid debate over a potential government shutdown, that Mexico would indirectly pay for the wall via a trade deal and that the US military would build it.
"Even if we get half, that's half the wall. We can do this," Brian Kolfage writes on his verified GoFundMe, which had raised more $8 million from about 100,000 donors as of Thursday evening.

Isn't that an incorrect title? It's not the wall, just wall.

For reasons that are not entirely clear to me the word has apparently come down from the White House that the wall, as in the wall to be built along the southern border, must now be called “wall”. In other words, no definite article, no “the”. President Trump now does this. It was part of a DHS press release a week ago. And today in a congressional hearing, DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen told Rep. Tom Marino: “From Congress I would ask for wall. We need wall.”

The market crashed in slow motion at least. Down 15% this year. Some argued this would not happen with an idiot in charge.

Well, they already go to church every Sunday and donate to the largest organized pedophile ring in the world. Might as well give some more money to another corrupt organization looking to screw them and their children.

Oh, and Trump was more than willing to sign the extension to avoid the shut down until Ann Coulter blasted him on twitter and Rush Limbaugh called him. Now we get a shutdown. Because of freaking Ann Coulter and Rush Limbaugh.

Could this President be any more transparent about the fact that he does not give two shits about this country and only cares about winning enough votes to get reelected to give him 4 more years to enrich himself at the government trough?
