Are you really so naive and silly that you think Trump literally meant they were going to hand over a cheque?

So, in other words, Trump will make Americans pay for the wall, Black Orchid 'cause that is what nearly all those measures are - Americans paying for a wall that Trump said Mexico would pay for during his campaign rallies...Black Orchid wrote: ↑Tue Nov 05, 2019 9:12 amThe Mexicans are paying for the wall indirectly via multiple forms of pressure via trade agreements, threats of tariffs, immigration crack downs, threatening to impound the $25 billion that flows into Mexico annually from Mexican nationals working legally and illegally in the US, increased fees for border crossing cards etc etc etc. The Mexicans are also now actively policing the border.
That was what he promised at all those election rallies, Black Orchid.Are you really so naive and silly that you think Trump literally meant they were going to hand over a cheque?![]()
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/20 ... all-in-jo/Those with long memories have recalled that prominent Democrats — including Sen. Charles E. Schumer and then-Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton — once heartily approved of funding a barrier wall on the southern U.S. border. Indeed, there are multiple records of their sentiments from back in the day, when the earnest lawmakers embraced border security without gusto. Now comes Part Two.
“Democrats funded a 287-mile wall in Jordan last year — but won’t fund a border wall in the U.S.,” writes Gateway Pundit Jim Hoft. “Nancy Pelosi argued this week that ‘walls are immoral.’ Chuck Schumer called President Trump’s stand against open borders a ‘manufactured crisis.’ But less than one year ago Pelosi and Schumer approved funding on a 287 mile long border wall — in Jordan.”
He cites information that offers the proof.
“The 2018 omnibus spending bill provides just enough funds to build 33 miles of fencing on the Texas border — but it also provides $500 million to help Jordan build a wall and defense line against jihad terrorists trying to cross its 287-mile border with Iraq and Syria,” Brietbart.com analyst Neil Munro wrote in a report published March 22, 2018.
“The omnibus budget says on page 394: SEC. 9011. Up to $500,000,000 of funds appropriated by this Act for the Defense Security Cooperation Agency in ”Operation and Maintenance, Defense-Wide’ may be used to provide assistance to the Government of Jordan to support the armed forces of Jordan and to enhance security along its borders,” Mr. Munro noted.
“Democrats had no problem funding the wall in Jordan. It was not an ‘immoral wall.’ And that was only 10 months ago,” observes Mr. Hoft.
He also never said that Americans would pay for the Wall/Fence he was going to erect, Black Orchid...Black Orchid wrote: ↑Tue Nov 05, 2019 1:14 pmNo Brian it's absolutely not and he never said Mexico is going to write a cheque. You have a strange mind, Brian.

He was simply being metaphorical and pointing out that the reason why the USA had to build a wall at all was all Mexico's fault. But unable to think up anything else to dump on Trump, Brian focusses on insignificance and makes a mountain out of a molehill.
Brian, instead of dumping on Trump, start figuring out why every South American is fleeing their own countries and doing their best to flood into the white European homeland of the USA, and any other white homeland country they can get into. Even in Sydney, South Americans are flooding in to such an extent that entire food shelves in supermarkets are now full of South American food. Their motivation seems to be, that if the yanks don't want them, then they will head for Australia instead.
instead of slagging off at our superior white western culture, which everybody on planet Earth wants to live in, and the smart ones want to emulate, , start figuring out what is wrong with non white western culture.
Jesus, what is wrong with you?
