Trump lying about wall funding again

https://www.cnn.com/2019/01/10/politics/trump-mexico-pay-wall/index.html
President Donald Trump claimed Thursday that his oft-made 2016 campaign promise that he would build a wall and Mexico would pay for it didn't mean it would be a direct payment, despite outlining just that scenario during his campaign.
"When during the campaign, I would say 'Mexico is going to pay for it,' obviously, I never said this, and I never meant they're gonna write out a check, I said they're going to pay for it. They are," he said as he prepared to depart the White House for the southern border.
But in April 2016, Trump's campaign outlined the steps he would take to compel Mexico to pay the US "$5-10 billion" to fund a border wall -- a plan that relies largely on threatening to bar undocumented Mexican immigrants in the United States from wiring money to relatives in Mexico.
"It's an easy decision for Mexico: make a one-time payment of $5-10 billion to ensure that $24 billion continues to flow into their country year after year," the memo said.

Let's build it
Win either way -
Guess who is getting worried about missing a paycheck?

Doing just fine. Are you still getting your food stamps during the shutdown?sarktastic said:Guess who is getting worried about missing a paycheck?

Food stamp program is a 100% total failure, ripe with Fraud and should be eliminated completely. Immediately.
Also,
We are a rich Country and none of our citizens should ever go hungry. Although I do acknowledge some still choose to. -
We should be taxing the heck out of the money that leaves the country. Put in a 50% tax for money sent outside the US, unless its for purchasing actual goods in return.

If there's such a crisis at the border like [Trump] claims (with no facts or data to back it up) -
So trump said Mexico would either pay up front or lose 24 billion to pay for the wall
What has changed?

But you lie all the fucking time Kunt. I can't do anything about Trump lying. But you can stop yourself from lying and yet you still continue to do it.insinceredawg said:

Deflection as usual. So you admit it, you only care when the other side lies. You're totally fine with Trump and the rest of the GOP lies their asses off to the American people.SFGbob said:I'm just curious how someone who complains about Trump lying is such a liar themselves.
If there's such a crisis at the border like [Trump] claims (with no facts or data to back it up)
And I stand by my statement, Trump doesn't use facts or real data to defend the need for a wall. -
Trump said Mexico would make a $5-10B one time payment to fund the wall. That was a lie. Reading is hard.RaceBannon said:So trump said Mexico would either pay up front or lose 24 billion to pay for the wall
What has changed? -
It was never a question that we need a wall before Trump. We have a working wall in San Diego
The only lies come from the TDS crowd -
Walls don't work
How do you keep a straight face on that one? -
I didn't say that at all and you've left out all context of my statement. Using your standard, you're a fucking liar Kunt. And Trump did use some real facts and real data in his speech the other night so you fucking lied again.insinceredawg said:

His "facts" were misconstrued, out of context, or straight up lies. A bookie actually lost a ton of money by offering bets for how many lies Trump would tell during his speech.SFGbob said:

Anyways, even if I did lie, why do you hold random internet posters to a higher standard than your president? You throw a bitch fit on here every single day about people lying but you eat up all the bullshit that Trump dishes out with a smile on your face. Fuck off Gay Bob, you're nothing but a lying, lightweight, strawman ass fucking Kunt. -

I don't hold random internet posters to a higher standard than the President. And I don't "throw a bitch fit" here everyday about people lying. Two more lies by you. What bullshit by Trump do I eat up? Trump lies all the time. There's nothing I can do about it. I just find it odd that someone like yourself who complains about Trump lying, lies so often yourself.insinceredawg said:

It's insane how far the left has gone off into the deep end.
"Walls dont work" might just be the dumbest hill to die on of all time.

Or they are "immoral." If that's the case why aren't the Rats proposing that we tear down all existing physical barriers at the border?Pitchfork51 said:It's insane how far the left has gone off into the deep end.

I actually knew what he meant. I assumed it would be through trade/tarffis or other taxes. (I.e. a tax on money transfers) It would be absurd to think that the Mexican government would write a check for it.

Although cash looks like a better deal for them
I just want a fucking wall even though they don't work -
Except that's what he implied when he said they'd make a payment towards the wall. It is absurd but this is Trump we're talking about.MikeDamone said:I actually knew what he meant.

I guess. I didn’t hear him say they would make payments. But I didn’t listen to him much.insinceredawg said:
