The big, beautiful Wall with the big, beautiful Door is now one of those fetish objects—like the Keystone XL pipeline and the imaginary Ronald Reagan—to which good Republican politicians must pay fealty. This will be true even if it never gets built, or only partly gets built, or even if it gets built and doesn't work the way it's supposed to work, or even if it turns out that Mexico shockingly won't pay for it. These fetish objects carry substantial political salience even when they don't exist.

My first exposure to a journalist named Chris Hayes came in 2007 when he wrote The Nation on the "NAFTA superhighway", a rightwing fever dream that never existed, but that still helped decide local races all over the middle of the country through which the mythical highway was said to run. They surely want the big, beautiful Wall with the big, beautiful Door but, in its absence, they will protect the idea of it. That's often enough.


It's very telling that this is one of the issues which Dump's supporters care most about. "Day took eeer jobsss."  


So true, that depiction of the dumb ass conservative redneck.  They are a very real phenomenon.  I was pumping gas the other day and there was a Mexican there pumping gas as well along with one of these dumb ass conservative rednecks.  The Mexican had on t-shirt which he had cut the sleeves off of and he had also cut slits all over the shirt to allow for better air flow.  It looked ridiculous, but it was obviously not something he had done as a fashion statement.  I understood, it's fuckin' hot as **** here, and humid, and if you work outside it's more about staying cool then what you look like. 

The dumb ass conservative redneck was staring at the Mexican.  His facial expression was one of utter contempt and hatred.  He was looking at that Mexican like the Mexican was the cause of all that creates unhappiness in his life.  It was all over his face.  I was embarrassed to be the same color as this fool.  I saw the Mexican and just saw another person pumping gas.  A person that likely works very hard for **** pay in a climate that's miserable just being outside in while doing no work.  Working in it is down right torturous.  I know, I work in it. 

Anyways, they haven't taken any of our jobs.  The **** neo-con's offshored them all, and the ones that couldn't be offshored just about no Merikan citizen will work.  I'd say probably 60% of the landscapers around here are Mexican, if not more.  The house building crews are probably at least 80% Mexican, and the siding and roofers are probably 95% Mexican.  Why? 

They didn't take any **** jobs.  The dumb ass conservative redneck had his job offshored.  The same motherfuckers offshoring those jobs illegally bring Mexicans into this country to pick the damn fruit.  I'd say a good percentage of the illegals are here with the help of Merican corporations. 

Build a **** wall?  Jesus **** Christ these motherfuckers are retarded.  Dump took your **** jobs your morons.



He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Matt 10:37
