    This is purely for show. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. His bullshit is unscaleable.

      No shit…

      IT IS 90 per state… what the fuck will it do.

      There are 30,000 police officers in Illinois and about 2500 Police Departments in Texas…

        The Trump administration reportedly plans to mobilize up to 1,700 National Guard troops across 19 states

        You’re right. I deleted a comment I wrote earlier because I thought I read that wrong but yep, that is across states, not per states. Yeah, the numbers are just half-ass bullshit. Ineffective by design. It’s how he approached building the wall. What they did was a con job, poorly implemented, failing by definition, the work of charlatans.

        The cost of things. He will bankrupt his own craven ambitions, just like everything else he ever touches. There are already issues along these lines such as he’s spreading National Guard budgets thin, etc. He just doesn’t have the resources he thinks he has. There isn’t a bottomless fund. He overplays his hand on this in every venture.

          We just gave ICE a hundred billion dollars. I don’t think funding is going to be a problem
