Donald Trump's Wall Gets a Reality Check.

John Oliver Takes Down Donald Trump's Wall, Brick By Brick (http://time.com/4265573/john-oliver-donald-trump-wall/)

Hilarious. :BigApplause:

And the libtards refused to listen to the rest of us when we said Obamacare would bankrupt America, and look at it now. It will have to be dismantled as a failure.

The wall is an easy thing. It's all politics and the libtards don't want it because it will hurt them. Funny how walls can be built hundreds of years ago and not "it's too hard, boohoo."

yea libtards, take that
All we need are Chinese slaves and it will be a snap.

[Guest]

Maybe all the people sitting on their ass all day talking on their Obamma phones could be put to work building the wall? No they don't want to build a wall...

[Guest]

The wall was there before Obama was President.

[Guest]

So much for what some would label a reality check!

[Guest]

After the wall is done, can we dump the unproductive libtards on the other side?

Hilarious. :BigApplause:
Why did it take so long for the comedians [or serious journalists] to write and broadcast this obvious boondoggle? [you can tell i'm old]
That's the problem.

[Guest]

I feel that the insight and comedy of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and the Colbert Report was an important news source in American politics that we no longer have a daily basis. It was just as important to follow Fox News and CNN at the same time and sort it out for yourself.

There are substitutes but at least in an election year I think they had an obligation to speak truth to power for one more year. Or maybe they could have weaned us off. I guess doing your own research is healthier but who has that amount of time.

Did you ever see how many people it took to put on those shows?

Here is the video..somewhat long but entertainingly informative.

Was too lengthy but comedians have been given such rich material this election cycle that they can't help thenselves.

Trump has a good sense of humor. He could do stand up for sure. I heard him say today that there were seventeen candidates at one time. He then referred to Cruz and Kasich as two leftovers. Now that's funny.

[Guest]

Heard Hillary today inciting violence. She said "you need to stand up to bullies." Guess if Donald said it, it would be a law breaker, but in her case, it's just more useless blather and pandering.

[Guest]

Who do you think is going to do all the heavy work?

[Guest]

The wall. I don't know whats worse, building a wall that can't be bought, can't be maintained, will cost land owners their own property, will keep illegals out (although we are already exporting more than are coming in now, will not help in the ways most illegals get here by plane ... but even after all that, what is really stupid is how stupid the low information voters who support this fraud, believe in the wall.

[Guest]

OK...here's a reality check for the wall. Forget the cost or the feasibility. History (or mythology) teaches us a lesson.

Yes,,,,the Trogen Donkey
My favorite Trump clip in the the video is that after he realizes that all you need for one side is a ladder, he starts to say but what about the other side and then he says "I suppose a rope would work".
You can hear him thinking out loud without any filters.

The difference is she did not say it when people were being led out of the rally. Only a Trump LIV can't see the difference.

Only a libtard would believe that Trump incited violence at all. Not one libtard on here has shown an example of his "inciting violence." Cowards always come up with something to whine about, when they are losing the argument.

[Guest]

If the wall was a libtard idea, of course it would be easy to do. But since it isn't, and they don't want to stop illegal aliens from invading our country, it's an impossible idea. What a bunch of losers!

There reasoning that it can't be done:

Too expensive -- but benefits to illegals is not
Too hard -- But building bridges and highways is easy
Impossible -- even though it has been done hundreds of years in the past
Will have to take private property -- but taking their taxes is ok

It's a Republican idea -- That is the real reason it can't be done.

Well after 20 posts this group found another rational solution to another of Armerica's problems.

I know. The title of the thread could be "Why Can't anyone make a decent Pizza" and somehow Hillary man, Ammo man, Libtard man and Scumbag man will tie it to Obama's failure as a president.

Funny but true. I guess that's all they've got.

That's a reach. You stand up with your voice not your fists.

Check the history of the Chinese Wall of you think that was an easy thing to build. It also took decades if not centuries to maintain and also was not all that successful at stopping invaders.

Another defeatist. Life is so hard, and I am surprised that you are still around. We should not attempt to rebuild our decaying bridges now, because it is too hard to do these things today. No wonder the kids today are so dependent, with you liberals as parents.

Yes, you just tell those big meanie bullies. That'll really teach them. :1rotfl:

You brought the failure into it. But, I can understand why everything is too difficult for you, if you use him as an example.

oppose the wall = dependent children
support the wall = independent children

You changed my mind.

[Guest]

fix the bridges = independent children
let them crumble = dependent children

I wish there was a way we could put together a WPA effort to put people to work and repair the infrastructure. That might cost money we don't have because we are building a wall. I forgot, Mexico is paying for it.

[Guest]

How about repairing our bridges and highways here in the US instead of building a wall that drug dealers and others can and will probably easily defeat by going under or blasting through in remote areas? Or going under in populated areas where they would have a hard time of putting in deeply embedded walls.

[Guest]

Are you or was you land owner on the border? I bet they would be all for it to stop the illegal trustpassers trashing their property? The wall should of be build in the 30s during the new deal. It would of been money well spent.

[Guest]

If you are a landowner on the border Eminent Domain is another worry.

Oh that's rich ... people happy with giving up their land ... and you call the liberals socialists.

[Guest]

I sincerely doubt that. Most of the border property owners would welcome a way to keep illegal invaders off their property. Apparently, trespassing signs are only valid to American citizens.

American people of the past were known to do more than one project at a time. Your defeatist attitude is **** poor and UN-American. You are a whiny disappointment.

I will believe that when I see it. In some cases people could lost a swath half a mile deep to the river to build this unbuildable fence.

[Guest]

Didn't anyone watch John Oliver Takes Down Donald Trump's Wall, Brick By Brick? Or is it a case of See No, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil.

A brilliant piece. I challenge any Trump watcher to view this and tell me where he is NOT telling the truth.

I doubt that. You would probably believe it is all a GOP conspiracy and wouldn't believe it if you ran your car into the wall.

watch the video and again tell me how the wall can be built and even more importantly how it can be sustained.

it is impossible and Mexico paying for it is a joke also. Maybe even more so than the wall its self.

Maybe we can float a nation wide 10 billion dollar bond to pay for it.

They are just following their role model in the WH!

We would be better off just giving any illegal 10,000 dollars to stay out. Much cheaper.

And this comedians validity comes from where?
You like what he has to say because he is saying what you want to hear? Because he is saying what you get in the talking points bulletins?

Do the same folks who use this comedians humr as valid information view SNL as their news source?

Sounds like it to me.

What else could one conclude when they are using comedians to validate their beliefs?

Did you watch it? What is funny are Trumps words on the subject of Building a Wall, a Great Wall, let's call it Trump's Wall. He didn't take a video of Hillary barking and mix it with a different subject just like every kid does on Youtube when they discover Windows Movie Maker.

I agree that John Stewart and Steve Colbert was the news source for many young and young thinking people. SNL, not so much.

First of all this is not the work of SNL.

Even though presented with comedy, the simple facts still remain the same. The wall cant be built, will only result in ladders one foot taller, wont be paid for except our tax dollars, will cost more and more each year to maintain it and does not even address the vehicle most illegals gain entry from, the airport.

See we agree. It's an HBO production.

Are you sure you responded the the post you meant to respond to?

[Guest]

So you didnt watch it then.

Who cares? What expertise does this person use in his great liberal entertainment? NO, I have no need to watch it. Once I realized where it came from, I had no inclination to watch it. Only a libtard would listen to a fellow libtard comedian for facts related to any issue. That says a lot about one's education.

If you are so well versed in the construction business, please enlighten us as to why you believe the wall cannot be built. Then, when you get done with that, please tell us how it is impossible to fly to and land a vessel on the moon. Oh, and when you are speaking of expenses, please include how much the gov throws away in their subsidy to Planned Parenthood. Never mind, about half a billion a year. No one even notices it missing, right? How much have we spent on the war on drugs? Oh, allow me. Over a trillion dollars has been spent on the war on drugs since Nixon started it. So, how much is it going to cost t build the wall? 10 billion, 20 billion? How much would we save on the war on drugs if we built the wall?

Never mind, preaching to the choir. Or, in your case, trying to float a lead balloon.

[Guest]

Once I realized where it came from, I had no inclination to watch it.
Then how can you discuss it? Isn't the thread is about the validity of the video?
It's certainly not about what and what I don't know on a variety of subjects.

The video will explain why building the wall is not feasible. The first time watch it with the sound off like the kids do with scary movies.

these trump believers are the same people who thought Obama was coming to get their guns and bought tons of guns. The work of the NRA and the gun manufacturers spreading such a blatant lie resulted in $$$ in their pockets. Idiot gun owners.

Not that Obama did everything he could to prevent gun ownership. Attempting to ban lead in ammo, heavy restrictions, propaganda, etc.

Too much on the Internet to show it all. If you haven't heard any of it, then you are a total retard.

[Guest]

That's a typical response. For all I know that's your typical response.

Your typical response is make false statements and then cut and run. And if you don't agree with a statement that someone else makes, ask them to give you proof. Typical liberal response that would lead one to believe that you are a troll. I don't think you are. We do have a troll, but he is stupid and doesn't try to converse with anyone on the subject.

You got the wrong person. To the best of my knowledge I'm the only one who as ever apologized when I was wrong.

Show me a false statement and I'll tell you if it's mine. I won't lie.
I don't expect you will. It's typical.
