*when we reach a wall, gravity changes and we are now standing on the wall; there is a lightly-inclined spiralling ramp in front of us that I start to go up*


Is this still training?

*shrugs and starts to go up one set of stairs*


*Trails behind you*

I can portal us out of here.


Oh. I didn't think about that.

"No you're just genuinely stupid when it comes to politics. "

This is why your immature response and opinion is discarded.

I will just say that Trump has been in an odd teeter-totter-ish place with me recently. He gave me the impression initially that he didn't intend to actually make Mexico pay for it, which he then doubly reversed on. He then takes on Paul policy, which if you know me, I won't need to explain. Then that whole issue with his man Spicer lying about what is probably the most trivial and unimportant of things. Then he actually is doing work in his first moments in office... But some of it is just "meh", to not go into detail about it. I'm just bleh about it all right now.


I can only imagine that that was a miscommunication or information mistake. It makes so much less sense to assume that he's blatantly lying about it.

Yeah, I have to agree. But it looks fun to explore. *there are mirrors all around and beams of light hit different mirrors, making different tones and beats*


What if we get lost?

*the inside of the building is even more Escher-esque than the outside, with fixtures on many-angled surfaces and stairs and ramps that go everywhere and nowhere* Fun.


This is so confusing.

It's not relevant whether I agree with his stance or not. I don't, but he's doing what he believes in instead of pandering.
The government is allowed to censor itself. The First Amendment doesn't protect from any and all consequences of peoples' words.
Probably because we haven't spoken in a long time and you think that anything you disagree with is stupid. It's not a very constructive train of thought.
Time. Time is a company resource, and it's being used to berate their boss.

I don't want the poor ones either. But there are plenty of test cases that prove walls do in fact work. You can obstruct tunnels by building it deeply and including seismographs (or mines if you want to be fun with it), and then there are other technologies that are available to the govt.
All of those workarounds are easily accounted for and ships don't work very well.
Overstayed visas can also be worked with internally. There are plenty of border hoppers; I live in Texas and we get some of the worst of it. Just because the majority is one thing doesn't mean we shouldn't stop lawbreakers in another; it's a false dichotomy.
The figures don't agree with that. Tax wire transfers to Mexico, strongarm them with NAFTA, cut our funding to Mexico, etc. There is a plethora of avenues that cost us nothing in the end that we wouldn't do otherwise.
Funny you mention propaganda considering the current state of affairs and media. There have been more than two, as well as others investing in the U.S.; plus, it's literally not even week 2 yet and we already have so much and it will continue to get better. The DOW continues to rise (until it inevitably crashes, whether because of a bubble or someone above it pulling the strings), but things are looking up. It's going to be good.
I'm slowing starting to hate my country. Never have in my life, but its happening. Do not ask why, I wont reply. This is not to start an arguement, just simply a statement of my opinion.


Why mention it at all then?
<Snipped quote by Meta>

Global Gag Rule, he's said that he likes torture and that it works, and banning tweeting for an entire section of the government. (Which is unconstitutional, hypocritical to the highest degree, and the act of a dictator since he did it because they were tweeting dissent against him.)


His stance on the torture thing isn't a screw up to me whether I agree with it or not. It's actually entirely constitutional. It's one thing to use personal Twitter to speak one's own mind, but that's effectively the same as using company resources to berate your boss. The government is supposed to work together, not be in civil war, and they were being inappropriate for the time and place.

<Snipped quote by Efficacy>

That's great and all on paper, but that's not how it actually works. Not to mention that a wall is entirely useless, making it a huge waste of money, and this would hurt the average american's purchases since that'll raise the prices on everything coming from mexico, which is going to be sold here regardless and is going to be bought regardless.


Blocks cartels.
We don't pay for it and it saves money.
Companies have already started moving back into the U.S. It's how capitalism works; if Mexico prices get to high, we switch to something else.
You assume they'll stay in Mexico; companies follow the money.
