Was that the thread saying ladders aren't feasible because no one is interested in carrying them the thousands of miles of their journey, thus no reason to plan for them?The General said:

There was all kinds of great stuff from that.
We had diagrams going on. People were submitting their own plans on the fly that made no sense - just like our President!

Could be. I believe that nugget came from matuski (notice no capital M - wouldn't want to offend the guy or he'd spank me like Pacquiao)

Yes. Some of the funniest pages in the PSF. My personal favorite was the ladder-consuming ditch that would strand immigrants on top of the T.

There was also a sloped “T” as well that was made with a slippery material on top IIRC

I think the real solution is really to start approximately 100 feet from the base of the wall and grease the #### out of the ground from that point to the wall and wall...obviously the Mexico side.

There's nothing to apologize for and I didn't mean that comment as a slight. I take your word for it. I've just run out of angles/approaches...nothing I can do about that.

I'd also be ok with this money going to families of government workers affected by the shutdown. It's a shame that Congress can't agree to a measly 5 billion and is essentially holding these people and their families hostage over it.
Congress and Senate from both sides already reached an agreement before Christmas. Your orange Messiah is the one holding families hostage. Hope this helps.

Their 'agreement" sure does include all of their pet projects, but it did not include the one thing the President clearly outlined it must include. They need to give a little here. So I do not agree with you.

I agree with you - sometimes my thoughts get muddled. its not a slight, it's the truth ..... I know it is, I can admit that

You're agreement is irrelevant. I'm just trying to educate you. The agreement was mutual. Both parties. From Ryan to McConnell to Pence. Only one person in the entire country who's to blame fore the shutdown. And he's fat and orange.

They have agreed on a couple different deals.
This is all on Trump and his genius level negotiations where he gets less and less of what he wanted.

It is and isn't.
First the hold up was in the house who refused to take up the Senate bill...now with the incoming members, the hold up is in the senate that will refuse to take up what the House produces.
Sure...that hold up is based on the man in the Oval office and his big mouth...but congress is holding up doing their job and presenting something to the President to make him sign or veto.
Obviously...the hold up is in the GOP and anyone saying otherwise isn't paying attention or refuses to understand the facts (clarifying here...not saying you are in that last part as I see you are blaming Trump...I think Trump and the GOP right now are to blame).

Congress has done their jobs, a couple times now. They did their jobs and based the results on what they were told was acceptable. They aren't mind readers....that's not their job. How we got here to this point has nothing to do with Congress' behavior (for a change). Moving forward we can redistribute blame as necessary.

Well, the Senate did their job...the House (and mostly Ryan) refused because of Trump's tantrum.
It has to do with Trump's behavior sure...but congress (now mainly McConnel) needs to grow a set and do their own damn jobs and pass the legislation.

Jake: "I'll do it for five hundred dollars."
(Alan considers it)
Charlie (whispering to Jake): "You can get more from him."
Jake: "I want a thousand dollars."
Alan: "That's out of the question."
Charlie (whispering to Jake): "Get him to split the difference."
Jake: "I want two-fifty!"

But if he capitulates on the wall funding then he's breaking his word to his voters that he will build the wall. I'm sure he came to that realization and decided to hold his ground.

He already broke his word to all of his thousands of time and his word was that Mexico pay for it.
His voters don’t give a damn about honesty and neither does he.

Nothing I posted was false. You in the other hand omitted the Mexico part making your post false by that omission.
And yes...that ship is long gone.

That's not the entirety of his word
Mexico paying for it would be fulfilling his word...nothing less. I've said a million times.....fulfill that promise...have at it but don't change the promise to us tax payers paying for it....that wasn't the deal.

The word was Mexico was paying for it. Regardless of what he tells you he’s broken his word.

You're lying to yourself.
When Trump said, "Mexico will pay for it", there is no way that you believed in your heart that what Trump really meant was that 1) he would make virtually zero effort to get Mexico to actually pay for it, 2) the U.S. taxpayers would pay for the upfront costs of the wall, and 3) we would try to get Mexico to unofficially reimburse us through increased trade profits.
Hell, the whole idea that Mexico will reimburse us through USCAM is something that Trump himself just came up with a few months ago. So there's no way that you would have had that thought in 2016.
Face it: Trump lied to you. He hasn't even tried to get Mexico to pay for the wall. The USCAM language does not include ONE single word about paying for the wall. It's all a big fat lie.

What do you propose happen here? Honest question. It’s not the Dems responsibility to fulfill Trump’s campaign promise.
How do you see a path out of this?
