    No really.

    He touted the border wall at San Antonio, Texas. Except there's a problem. There's neither a border, nor a border wall in San Antonio Texas.

    There's about 150 miles of Texas between San Antonio and the border.
    That's where the 2nd or 3rd wall will be. In case the first one gets overrun by the invading hordes. Sort of like the several lines of trenches on the western front in World War I.

    Trump and Pence spent approximately two minutes at the MLK Memorial this morning before returning to the White House, per pooler @fran_chambers.

    On this MLK Day remember,

    After he was assassinated, Congress rushed through the Fair Housing Act in his honor. One of the first big landlords caught up in enforcement of that act was one Donald Trump.

    And for Pence, well, he's probably just still upset about the Civil War.

    He wasn't killed because of his stances on racial equality, he was killed because he was a threat to the rich. I guess our education system failed Sarah Sanders.

    I may have missed some crucial piece of background or reasoning, but would you mind enlightening me as to WHY?

    1. Let the South leave the union.
    2. Invade and annex the South, organizing them as territories, with no senators or voting representatives in the House.
    3. Free from that millstone, make bounding strides of progress in every field of useful human endeavour.

    Better yet, just leave them alone. Red states tend to be leeches of federal money, without that they would fall apart.

    If we leave them alone, I want a border wall to stop the rednecks from entering the North.

    Having a failed state on your border tends to be bad for property values.

    If the South left, even if we were willing to stand aside from the inevitable human rights abuses, it would take less than two generations for them to find excuses to blame their problems on everyone else and start a war to distract from them.

    The root of the problem is the failure of the US government back then to execute the political and military leaders of the slavers for their treason. The rest of America has, is, and will continue paying the price for that decision for decades to come until the day when it's last legacy is finally dead and buried.
    Impeach the MF.

    President Trump's visit to the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial appeared to be a last-minute addition to his calendar https://t.co/7YUjkngjkq
    https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1...806255617?s=19

    Read this yesterday but wanted to wait and see. They had no plans on the calendar to give tribute to MLK. Then decided to visit MLK for a Whole Two Minutes.

    Also Pence on Sunday talk show stated MLK would be for the wall.

    These people are clueless.

    They aren't clueless, they know exactly what they are doing.

    It's hilarious watching Republicans try to claim MLK as theirs when he was a straight up socialist who said capitalism had outlived its usefulness. He was to the left of both current major parties.
