    There should be limits

    There should be set a time limit when candidates can spew their false promises and fake backgrounds. The Democratic candidates have been show boating now for, what?, 6 months now. Election is 9+ months away. So, we have to see their ads every hour of every day for 9 more months. There should be a a limit set on how long they can campaign. Like only during the 6 months before the election. Their ads get sillier and sillier.

    You can't shut a Democrat up -- he'd explode.

    Fish gotta swim
    Birds gotta fly
    Skunks gotta stink
    Liberals gotta lie.

              nuanced

              Had to look that word up and don't see how it fits regarding the new contract. You need to enlighten me...

                Ray you'd have to follow the money, how the new trade deal sends money north compared to the old one, how that money is then captured by the government, and put to work building the wall. Or would it be a private wall with tolls collected. As it was, Trump said he was going to both blow up NAFTA and get Mexico to pay for a wall in a campaign, so in his mind, too different things. If he's such a success then no need to give him credit he hasn't earned--in this case that he is getting Mexico to pay for the wall. Currently the DOD is paying for it by not doing other construction projects. If Mexico was truly paying for the wall, then that wouldn't be happening would it?

                  Jive talking?

                  No one, even the democrats expected Mexico to deliver a check paying for the wall. You are correct, it was all a part of the new trade deal. One way or another they are going to pay. Hinged upon that too is Mexico finally taking a stand against invaders entering their country to reach ours. The 2300 from Honduras was just the latest. Their police and military have been stopping the invasion as well vs aiding them as in the past.

                          I understand your angst Major Tom .... but you complain about the Dems campaigning and showboating for 6 - 9 months .... and yet

                          ...and yet you don't say a word about 2 1/2 years of endless Trump political rallies around the country ....all on the taxpayers dime

                            A source of Trump quotes, nothing more. Are you going to dispute the accuracy of those quotes?

                              Never read that liberal magazine if I can't help it, unless at a Doctor's office etc...Nothing but far left liberal leaning and in some case, un American leaning articles....Of course I know you do!..
