  2. compare Trumps Wall with the parting of the Red Sea in the Bible and I think you will find many similarites. It means one thing when you are a child hearing it for the first time, and something else when you start understanding the language.

  3. nothing wrong with apologia if it is used properly and not for an agenda

  5. no, it's simply a code word for let's stop talking and fix the illegal alien problem and I'm just the guy that can actually do it even though they have been talking about it for decades.

    The only two people on earth who still don't want a wall are me and Gary Johnson, but in my mind, even a free border could have a beautiful wall.

    Polling 40% is great and fine for the candidate Trump. I'm confused how you think this will be a great thing for someone who will have to show the maturity and levelheaded behavior of someone who is going to run the top country on the planet. I get that everyone is pissed at the establishment. So am I. I get that everyone is pissed at Wall Street. No one is more angry Wall Street and demanding justice than I. No one is more anti-Fed, or against lobbying, or RINO republicans, or Congress or the current administration, or fed up with the economic bumbling of this - or previous - administrations than I. No one a more ardent 2nd amendment supporter than I.

    But running the country is going to require a good plan and a lot of ability outside the ability to point at someone, or some group and say "it's their fault". It's going to require more than just tweeting snark and (semi) witty insults at people that don't get along with you or agree. It's going to require diplomacy, the ability to reach across the aisle. The desire to want to heal.

    The fact that 40% of the people in the poll vote for Trump is no more comforting than the statistics that show 43% of people still approve of Obama - or that 40% of people think jersey shore is a great show. None of these statistics necessarily bode well for the future of the United States of America.

    I will also say FOX is stupid to try to make a stand on this. THEIR reporter was the one who caused this. She's a flake.

    It means just about everything you said was so convoluted and devoid of consistent thought or related to the quote you were speaking to, that I thought it wasn't English at all, but more a language designed by large consumption of Wild Turkey.
