@realDonaldTrump So WOW you robbed our defense funds to go to an ineffective wall THAT THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS oppose.

Dems want EFFECTIVE border security - not a humongous waste of money.

@realDonaldTrump Fiber-optic cable has already been tested, costs a fraction of the $$ needed for a wall, can be installed w/ little ground disturbance to existing walls, allows animals to migrate, & doesn’t cause flooding. Existing wall is already damaging ecosystems.
Graham was once one of Trump’s sharpest critics (“I think he’s a kook,” in 2016), and is now one of his staunchest supporters, whether it comes to supporting his Supreme Court pick, or his golf game (“Anyone who says he’s not a great golfer, that’s fake news,” he said).(WaPo) 
Sen. Lindsey Graham advises President Donald Trump to “stick to his guns” in the fight over funding for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border and warned that giving in to Democrats' demands could be "the end of his presidency." (USAToday)

@FiveThirtyEight which tracks congressional votes, reported that as of October 2018 Sen Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS) had voted with Trump's position 100% of the time. #GOPComplicit #GOPFail #DemSenate2020
"WH is firming up plans to redirect unspent federal dollars as a way of funding Trump's wall without taking the dramatic step of invoking a national emergency."

2-"Done by executive order, this plan would allow the White House to shift money from different budgetary accounts without congressional approval, circumventing Democrats who refuse to give Trump anything like the $5.7 billion he has demanded. Nor would it require a
3-"controversial emergency declaration. The emerging consensus among acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney and top budget officials is to shift money from two Army Corps of Engineers’ flood control projects in Northern California, as well as from disaster relief funds intended for
Once again, I’m disgusted by @realDonaldTrump’s demonization of immigrants. When will this infantile stereotyping, scapegoating, and gaslighting end? #SOTU
FACTS:
Border crossings are far below historic highs.
Most undocumented immigrants overstay their visas.
Experts see no security crisis at the border.

We want smart, effective border security: better staffing/tech at ports of entry & elsewhere, more immigration judges, better monitoring of mail & cargo, and humanitarian treatment of migrants & refugees. NOT a costly, ineffective, ego-project wall. #SOTU
Let’s have some truth bombs before tonight’s address:
#NoWall Fact 1:
Illegal border crossings are way down
In the early 2000’s, 1.3-1.6 million people were apprehended crossing the border.
2018? <400,000

#NoWall Fact 3:
The majority of undocumented immigrants DO NOT sneak across the border, they are people who came to the US legally and overstayed their visa. A wall does NOTHING to address this.

Any chance the GOP could actually be realizing that gutting Fed coffers to avoid actually shutting OUR Gov't down might hurt them in 2020? #ThursdayThoughts #NoWall #GovernmentShutdown

2/"Senate Republicans are meeting with President Trump on Thursday afternoon to try to sell him on a proposal that would stave off a government shutdown next month but likely stop short of giving him all the money he wants to for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. Trump has been

The inhumane Tump policy of separating families is an intentional distraction from the Mueller probe.
Clapper: 'We had a suspect' in Kremlin-WikiLeaks transfer
Stone’s & Caputo’s damningly false denials of contact with RU defies credulity.

This is the perfect time to mention Friedrich Trump wrote: “Why should we be deported? This is very, very hard for a family," wrote in 1905. After he was DEPORTED FROM BAVARIA for failing to fulfill his military duties.
