Why Are Conservatives More Susceptible to Believing Lies?

"Many conservatives have a loose relationship with facts. The right-wing denial of what most people think of as accepted reality starts with political issues: As recently as 2016, 45 percent of Republicans still believed that the Affordable Care Act included “death panels” (it doesn’t). A 2015 poll found that 54 percent of GOP primary voters believed then-President Obama to be a Muslim (…he isn’t)".

and the other half are idiot conservatives that cannot tell that
a wool hat has been pulled down over their own eyes and ears.

Economy is growing, more jobs opening, this productivity due to good trade deals made, since Trump has been POTUS.

U.S. hasn't seen this in 19 years.

Thank you Obama, for giving Trump a wave to ride.

Trump says he can declare a national emergency to build the wall on the U.S.-Mexico border


"During a press conference in the Rose Garden, President Trump told reporters he could declare a national emergency and begin building the wall on the U.S.-Mexico border without congressional approval".

http://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-says-declare-national-emergency-205910320.html

I'm waiting and hoping he will do it. He's just a step away from impeachment now. That would do it without a doubt. It would be a blatant misuse of power.

Ahh, yes, lets use the National Emergency system like Bankruptcy law for billionaires, get what you want and walk away looking the success.

emergency: a serious, unexpected, and often dangerous situation requiring immediate action.


is there any mandate to explain what is so 'serious or unexpected or dangerous' that the wall is required IMMEDIATELY? or even that a wall could happen IMMEDIATELY?

I wont hold my breath. I hope party line politics doesnt keep this tied up much longer, alot of americans are working hard with no pay through these holidays under this newest bully pulpit strategy.

Trump Administration Officials Are Getting Raises During Shutdown

"The government has been operating under a partial shutdown since December 21st, depriving 800,000 federal employees of their entire paychecks. Meanwhile, hundreds of senior Trump appointees are getting $10,000 raises, the Washington Post reported on Friday".

At least one of them is showing some sense.

GOP Senator Cory Gardner Says Congress Should Reopen Government Without Wall

"Republican Sen. Cory Gardner (Colo.) became the first senator in his party to call for an end to the partial government shutdown, even if President Donald Trump doesn’t get funding for his border wall".

http://www.yahoo.com/news/gop-senator-cory-gardner-says-223435217.html

Congress can override Trump's veto, but that will require huge cooperation between the parties. Good luck.

So the wall money asked for is what the government spends in a day. And the liberals are making noises to double the amount of money government spends each year to fund bad healthcare for everyone.
And there are actually people out there that think this fight has ANYTHING to do with funding. I tip my hat at those people’s breathtaking lack of understanding.
In the old days. Say, 30 years ago, the people in Washington at least pretended to want to do what was good for the country, on both sides of the aisle.
Today, we have a newly sworn in congresswomen who used the Palestinian flag instead of an American flag calling with foul language for impeachment of the President based on her just not really liking him.
HandFaceplant...

Except that dems have no clue what the truth is.

Uh, Charles. He’s a billionaire. That doesn’t just accidentally happen. It does take a basic grasp of business, deals, and finance.
Sorry you’re jealous :)

their small minded opinions here do NOT have goverment jobs or there
Opinions would be quite different .

I agree. its not about the AMerican people, or their pay would not be being held hostage so a POTUS could HALF fulfill a promise (Mexico aint paying for the wall)

If it was about AMerican people the government would continue to RUN while they continued to come up with progress, instead of this financial blackmail crap that repeatedly is used as a political tactic.

Much of his billion status is due to wealthy inheritance and the namesake, and most of it well over two decades ago it can 'just happen', if you're born to the right family in the right circles, and invest money in the right places, and your name makes people follow you blindly and enthusiastically.

In fact, there is more than one way to become a billionaire, but being a billionaire is not proof of competence to be a president. His time was up decades ago, now he is senile, but the Apprentice successfully duped a whole population into believing otherwise.

that national emergency BS is nothing but throwing spaghetti
to see how much sticks to the walls...he's really laying the
groundwork for canceling the 2020 presidential election due to
the *threat to the security of our nation, sort of testing the
gullibility of the people..

and when the real wolf showed up he ate the little
shepherd-boy because the people of the village were tired
of hearing the false cries of the boy, so they ignored him...

Exactly and how will we ever know the whole truth until we see his taxes ?
Not to mention he cuts corners on the construction of his assets and rips off contractors
for monies owing .
He hires illegal aliens in droves and helps falsefy there green card documents .
Uses his charity organization as a piggy bank ripping off donors .
Shall i go on ? Because hes a corrupt thief in the pocket of Putin and anyone
who stands behind him is a blind fool .

What taxpayers pay to the government would soon pay back money for the Border Wall. Democrats don't want to agree to 5.6 billion.
The Security of the USA is what's at hand.

POTUS will continue the Part government shut down . Unfortunately. Approx. 800,000 awaiting thier PAY checks.

Trump says he could invoke emergency powers to build a wall without Congress

"WASHINGTON — President Trump floated the possibility he could declare a “national emergency” in order to build a wall on the southern border during a freewheeling press conference at the White House on Friday".

http://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-shutdown-wall/trump-says-he-could-use-emergency-powers-to-build-border-wall-idUSKCN1OY1VK


The Trump administration is giving its senior employees $10,000 pay raises while 800,000 federal employees are going into their third week on furlough and another 400,000 are working without pay because of President Donald Trump’s partial government shutdown over $5 billion in border wall funding. The president also passed an executive order this week denying federal civilian employees a cost-of-living raise.
Cabinet secretaries, deputy secretaries, some senior officials, and Vice President Mike Pence will see pay increases beginning Saturday, January 5, according to the Office of Personnel Management
That is a sure way to get votes!!


Trump told us over a hundred times he is the greatest negotiator, in the world, he knows more about how to make business deals than any of the CEOs; he claimed to be is smarter than all the generals in the military; he bragged about knowing more about construction & wall building than all contractors combined; he said he can influence every leader in the world to do what HE wants - so where is the budget, the blueprints for the wall; the financial agreement with Mexico; the support of all the leaders & the generals and why does he need to shut down the American government, when he told us over a hundred times that Mexico would pay for the wall. Perhaps instead of giving the wealthiest people & corporations huge tax cuts, he should have taken the trillions of funds he gave away and used it to build his wall. The ONLY areas Trump is an expert in is having dozens of businesses fail; filing bankruptcy on six hotels & casinos & being involved in almost 3800 lawsuits.

Maybe it's about time for Congress too declare a national emergency and invoke the 25th.

This clearly shows Trump and most likely a few of his closest swamp monsters distributed propaganda in El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras and handed out money to enough people to get them to travel to our borders. Trump hoped that by creating an image of an invasion, the Republicans would keep the Senate and House. Now, he's saying he can use his powers to declare a National Emergency in order to get the funding for his wall or fence....whatever he wishes to call it. Follow the money...there's a reason he is so desperate to build this wall\fence. Maybe he needs the money in his Russian bank account to pay off excessive loans or maybe a few individuals that might actually be able to prove he was and is very much involved with Russia. Trump has a hundred if not more shell companies.



This is getting way out of control. The emergency at the border is man-made by the President and the Republicans. It is time the Republicans try to join the Democrats for sake of the country. If the President tries to use emergency powers which this is clearly not. It could topple his presidency and force the 25th amendment.

This is showing signs of being set up for 2020. He knows he is going to lose the election come 2020. This way he can say that there is a national emergency and remain president.

Republicans, This is your president. I hope you're proud. With the way things are looking, the little orange dictator wannabe is may be about to become just that.



And for those of you who think it's only going to be 5 billion, I have a vast wetland in the Mojave Desert to sell you.

Nothing new has happened with our borders that fits status of 'emergency', same as it ever was and will be. This is blackmail with the wages of hard working Americans. Its disgraceful.

I can give him a pass on not keeping his promise that a wall will be built and MEXICO will pay for it, just like Obama said healthcare would pass and people could keep their doctors.

neither could foresee what others choices would be. But I do think its discraceful for their to be a shutdown of government over an issue that is ongoing and only an emergecy because he promised it and its not happening fast enough for him, and not because it has any real urgency that excuses this hold up of peoples wages.

Cut the strings little puppets..break free of the MATRIX, the CIA mockingbird media lies to control your minds ..FOLLOW THE RABBIT . there are MANY more rabbit holes to search..Alice... DO THE RESEARCH...
