It directly addressed the post. Not sure how that is stupid, but I can count the ways your reply is.

From the article

Other video footage shows groups of illegal aliens being escorted by scouts who carry radios. Still others show lines of men with large burlap sacks of suspected marijuana.

But the cargo is changing, and it coincides with the legalization of marijuana in several U.S. states.

“About a year ago, our cameras quit picking up the burlap sacks with the 20 kilos of marijuana, but now we’re seeing that they’re running a bigger camouflage pack than the regular illegals,” he said. “It’s better made. More space in it. They’re running meth, heroine, cocaine, fentanyl.”

Most drug seizures occur at ports of entry, where traffickers hide large amounts in vehicles. However, they also risk a big loss if caught.

It’s cheaper for the cartels to travel by foot and the losses are smaller, Foley said. He suspects the cartels also make illegal aliens carry drugs across the border as part of their payment to cross.

Most everybody agrees with some forms of socialism when you are speaking strictly of limited social safety nets or medical coverage.. I don't think believing in social programs makes them unamerican, but accusing someone of being unamerican simply for having a different view point seems a bit more unamerican.

BTW, I don't know anyone that really believes in true socialism, but you trump supporters like to throw that name around willy nilly, though I expect most of you don't have a clue as to what it really means.

Trump has no leadership skills. He should not be the President of the United States.

Republican Sen. Bob Corker said he’s not surprised that Trump says he won’t sign continuing resolution — and he laughed as he described the situation.

Corker said there is no guidance from leadership about how to move forward on this. He said senators are already heading home, and stressed this is all “elementary relative to” Trump’s decision yesterday to withdraw troops from Syria.

Here's Corker's full exchange with reporters:

Corker: “Well Mitch is on the phone with Paul right now so..." *starts chuckling*

Reporter: Why are you laughing?

Corker: “Well, why not?”

Reporter: Are you surprised by this?

Corker: “No, not really. I mean look at Syria yesterday... this is elementary relative to the decision made yesterday in such a precipitous way right, I mean you’re talking about a major policy decision made in the same manner right so this is something that whatever happens we all know we’ll move beyond. What happened yesterday in Syria which is a similar kind of decision making process is going to affect things things for the long haul.”

Reporter: What is the path forward on the CR though?

Corker: “I don’t know. Y’all have fun. I’m getting ready to drive to Chattanooga.”

Reporter: What’s the guidance from leadership?

Corker: “They have no guidance ... I saw senators heading out going home knowing that even if we vote they’re going to give folks time to get back ... I think they’re just sorta swirling around over there”

Then Ted Cruz walked by and said: “I think we need to follow through with funding for the border”

Corker laughed again: “You can’t make this stuff up”

That is a joke. The circus the last two days is proof that he does not possess a leadership skill set. He is not a negotiator. He is not decisive. He does not bring people together and unify them. He places his own ego above all else and throws temper tantrums. He has had a Republican Congress for two years and yet, this happens on the very last day his party controls the House????

He has said all along fund the damn wall, RINOs and far left hacks don't want the wall. He knows this is his only chance to get it and in the end I doubt he will because the dems are anti-American and don't want the border secured and most Rs are wimps.

I’m gonna guess several of Corkers Republican brothers are happy to help him pack and load his **** on a truck ala Beverly Hillbillies style, drive his ass to the VA state line, and put a boot in said ass to knock him over it.

A negotiation typically involves making concessions to the other side in order to get what is most important to you... The Trump Administration has had all this time to fix DACA but has never shown any inclination but to phase it out.

Dems are used to Rs making concessions and the libs never having to give up anything. Under Bush and leadership in the Congress that's how it happened, thankfully those days are gone.
