The Guy Who Thought Up ‘the Wall’ Says Trump Should Shut Government to Fund It
Inside Trump’s circle, the power of illegal immigration to manipulate popular sentiment was readily apparent, and his advisers brainstormed methods for keeping their attention-addled boss on message. They needed a trick, a mnemonic device. In the summer of 2014, they found one that clicked. “Roger Stone and I came up with the idea of ‘the Wall,’ and we talked to Steve [Bannon] about it,” said Nunberg. “It was to make sure he talked about immigration.”
Initially, Trump seemed indifferent to the idea. But in January 2015, he tried it out at the Iowa Freedom Summit, a presidential cattle call put on by David Bossie’s group, Citizens United. “One of his pledges was, ‘I will build a Wall,’ and the place just went nuts,” said Nunberg. Warming to the concept, Trump waited a beat and then added a flourish that brought down the house. “Nobody,” he said, “builds like Trump.”
The Wall quickly became Trump’s signature campaign promise—his “Free Bird,” something fans called for at stadium rallies. It signified his commitment to passing hardline immigration laws, which won him the loyal support of right-wing television personalities, such as Ann Coulter, whose approval he craves.
Think about that.....
ICE is now spending 180 billion per year.
Civil Rights are being routinely violated, court orders flaunted and now Americans are being killed.
Over a **** "mnemonic device" for a pixilated sock puppet.

Deal:
Which scenario is an example of survivorship bias in evaluating business success?Deal: Veghead claimed he already answered this question. LOL. If Veghead proves that he did indeed answer the survivorship multiple choice question below, as the question is written and asked, along with his defense of his answer, then I will agree to never come back. I am permabanned. Gone. Like a fart in the wind. If he cannot, then he is out of here for a month. Additionally, his defense cannot be "Because it fits my definition." That is a claim, not a defense. He is to defend why. His evidence must precede the timestamp upon when this challenge has been agreed upon by both parties. Moreover, he must answer immediately when the mods say "go," That next post. Not the next 600 posts. Either Cannon or Deezer mods.
Exception: I will allow for an exception. If he loses, then I will allow him to stay if he answers it the way it is asked, along with his defense. However, he must do it immediately after the deal has been decided. Not 100 posts later. The very next post of his must be his answer/defense.
A) Believing that reading business books increases revenue after finding many CEOs recommend them.
B) Concluding that most startups fail after analyzing bankrupt companies.
C) Thinking entrepreneurship is easy because most media profiles focus on successful founders.
D) Surveying customers to understand why they chose your product over competitors

That is how **** stupid you are...
8 Jan 2026 10:53 am
what’s stupid about following laws on the books?
8 Jan 2026 10:56 am
Because it isn't about that, obviously.
Remember, you voted for a rapist felon, who wouldn't have been on the ballot - had we followed the laws on the books.
Nod.

$500 per every man woman and child is a small price to pay to strengthen the middle class of America and to ensure that you traitors don't get to transform the USA into a single party only, government services dependent Banana Republic.
