But do they recognize he’s the heel? I’d bet, deep down inside they wish they were heels and are delighted to see one in full rampage with no face to start the chair-bashin’ put down.
Let’s stipulate that Trump is wasting $100 million of taxpayer money by using the military as a political pawn. In a perfect world, where we had a Congress that actually believed in checks and balances, what could be done about this? Is this an impeachable offense in itself? Or does the president have carte blanche to use the military in any way that he “sees fit”?
Not even a perfect world, but in a normal world, the president would listen to experienced and knowledgeable advisors who would tell him it’s a bad idea.
and a normal president who would listen to the advisors.
What if this caravan is a sneaky diversion, and there is another, real caravan of Canadians bearing down on us from Quebec? Sneaky bastards. We should deploy to the northern border.
Polynesians bearing down on Guam, planning on asking for asylum and football scholarships. Speaking of “strong, large, very strong, very large men”…
They probably would be mostly white, so that would be OK. Remember, Trump doesn’t like non-whites coming here. That’s what he feeds his base. He’s OK with Swedes.
For some reason, Samoans have an enclave on the California side of Lake Tahoe and all of the men I saw come into the casino I worked in on North Shore were XXL.
We also need to stop the vandalization of all those Dodge Caravans
And Guamanians are Micronesians, so they would be no match for them.
Trumps ‘goal’ is two fold. Enrich himself, and keep his sorry ass out of prison. That’s it. Full stop. It’s never been anything more than that, and never will be.
While visiting Bozeman (which is in Montana),
CFSG:
I noticed all that beautiful barbed wire going up today. Barbed wire used properly can be a beautiful sight.
If you click the (breitbart) link, you will see an image of the border area which does not depict “barbed” wire. It is that other stuff. Remember the scene in The Great Escape when Steve McQueen’s character is trying to ride into Switzerland? That stuff. “Barbed” wire is usually not deployed in coils.
Is our creep-outedness not on the rise?
Razor wire is the term I believe you are looking for.
I don’t know if this is a whooosss or not, but it certainly did make me laugh.
Perhaps we should redirect trump to fight the onslaught of XXL Samoans. :eek:
One type of stabby wire that’s spread out in coils is concertina wire. The coils are connected at intervals so it expands like, well, like a concertina.
The image in the story is odd, though. It doesn’t look like wire in the process of being deployed. I wouldn’t think you’d do that with bare hands. It looks like a stock image taken from some other conflict area. Note one of the hands appears to be trying to pass something through the wire. I wonder where it’s from.
Reports are saying the Army is laying razor wire along the bank of the Rio Grande. That’s certainly not helpful for the wildlife that crosses that river.

What, you are now saying that we should have open boarders to wildlife too?
They can wait in line at the legal points of entry like everyone else.
Bear in mind that I am not crediting him or his handlers to be subtle enough to make this distinction, because I think that “barbed wire” has been used as a generic term for all kinds of stabby wire, and he was in BZ, which is right on the edge of ranch country, where they can identify with barbed wire, but it might be noted that, in ranch country, barbed wire is used for controlling animals. Make of that what you will.
I saw a news photo of that action. Article reported that the Army was bringing 22 miles of it. Only 1932 miles to go and they will have Trump’s wall (of a sort).
