Self-proclaimed Republicans so desperately want the left to have a equal boogeyman to Donald that they blatantly and unapologetically make shit up to defend their whataboutism....

Barry HUSSEIN Obama!

it doesn't matter. the rubes only pay attention to what trump says and will never, ever hear a source that contradicts him let alone believe them
 
I look forward to the prime time speech full of truths and sane fiscally responsible fact based plans shared with the nation tomorrow night.
 
glad to see some ghoulish fuck duke grad wielding his racism over the entire country

Trump is a master bullshitter, but this new idea that there's an "emergency" on the Southern border is one of the biggest piles of bullshit of his tenure (which is saying something). Illegal crossing apprehensions were about 310,000 last year, compared with 1.6 million in 2000 and 500,000 in 2015. https://www.npr.org/2018/06/22/622246815/unauthorized-immigration-in-three-graphs

Easily twist this into we aren’t catching them, they are already amongst us, we need a wall!!!
 
Or, he could do what a normal president would do, claim a victory in the reduction of immigrants, and move on. But of course, that doesn't feel like the Libs are losing quite enough, so time to blow this whole thing into a completely irrational position.
 
Is SIX in the margin of error for claiming 4000 terrorists were caught at the southern border as Nielsen and Huckabee-Sanders claimed?

"By Julia Ainsley
U.S. Customs and Border Protection encountered only six immigrants on the U.S-Mexico border in the first half of fiscal year 2018 whose names were on a federal government list of known or suspected terrorists, according to CBP data as of May 2018 obtained by NBC News.

The low number contradicts statements by Trump administration officials, including White House press secretary Sarah Sanders, who said Friday that CBP stopped nearly 4,000 known or suspected terrorists from crossing the southern border in fiscal year 2018.

Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen told reporters on Monday the exact number, which NBC News is first to report, was classified but that she was working on making it public."

Yep, Trump is telling the truth...
 
Probably good timing to have a prime time address tomorrow. After tonight, people from one of our two rubiest states will be pissed off and looking for a fight.
 
So either they’re making up numbers or they’ve completely failed in their two years protecting our borders. Which one is it?
 
 
They do like to have a kernel of truth in their pre-planned lies. Given that the number for the first half of 2018 was revealed to include only six immigrants (with no arrests), that could mean the number for 2017 was, like, five. Be afraid!

(Also worth noting that the terrorist watch list is a mess and Republicans want everyone on it to be able to buy guns.)

BTW, just looked up the actual article, and lol at the number of people on the watch list encountered at the border with Canada being more than twice as high as the border with Mexico.
