Anybody watch CNN's Jim Acosta clip standing next to a border wall in Texas and telling Americans that the border crisis is manufactured? Duhhhh?

Dumb as a rock Acosta unwittingly proved Trump's entire argument -- walls bring security, peace, and safety!

It is perhaps the greatest myth of the 21st century that Democratic leaders actually care for people. They use women, they use african Americans, they use the illegals, they use LGBTQ, they use the climate and the environment, etc. but all they really care for is power.

Just like Carl Sagan said, "One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We're no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It is simply too painful to acknowledge -- even to ourselves -- that we've been so credulous.”

Good post bro Ohio, tho methinks it's too narrowly applied. Methinks there's more bamboozled than just the Demmies.

Example : The GoFundMe for Trump's wall. Trump supporters have pored money into it, to the tune of more than $20 million. The person who created the page is Brian Kolfage, a right-wing nutjob decorated vet.

First off, the government can't take gifts. Then there's the matter that Kolfage has a history of conning money from right wing suckers, on other GoFundMe accounts, masquerading as good causes, but actually enriching him.

Same with this wall GoFundMe. It's got the right bamboozled, just like you claim the left is bamboozled.

It's small minds, whether left or right, that only sees one as right and the other as wrong. No one has a corner on either.
