Are you dense? Really, I want to know. Do you even know what an ILLEGAL alien means??? You are are just fake news dude.

https://www.history.com/news/berlin-...s-east-germany

Between 1961 and 1989, thousands of East Germans made risky border crossings. Around 5,000 of them crossed over the Berlin Wall at great personal risk

The Berlin Wall wasn't quite 100 miles long, compared to about 900 miles of East German border, among other exit routes from East Germany. So most refugees chose the path of least resistance - around the wall.

Where there's a wall, there's a way.

The more important question is why self-described freedom-loving people want to prevent the entry of asylum seekers who are highly motivated to work hard and contribute to the economy.

If Republicans welcomed them with open arms, then we'd have a new influx of Republicans. But they don't.

Mostly it boils down to skin pigmentation. Republicans don't like brown people or foreigners of any stripe for that matter, despite the so-called "religious right" who ignore the biblical traditions of hospitality and support for the poor and persecuted.

Basically if you're not a fetus or unimnplanted embryo, Republicans don't give a rat's ass.

As far as Reagan guilting Gorbachev into tearing down that wall, he only said that after it was inevitable. Self-fulfilling prophecy.

As usual, more dishonesty and deceit, and further proof that right-wing propaganda causes irriversible brain damage. Originally Posted by Dev Null

Right on DN !!
We need a wall around the cement pond. With barbed-wire and a minefield. Plus some guard towers with machine guns. We have to keep the brown and black hoard out !
And I assure you my skull is not empty. Mine actually has a brain inside! And the intellectual capacity and academic achievement far exceeds that of any Hilly Billys.

There are those that put forth that immigrants bring crime,drugs,disease,and economic harm by taking jobs or being a burden on services provided here. They use these charges to demonize people.
But usually what it really masks is their fear of becoming a minority by the year 2040.

Personally I'm more concerned with our own economy.
It's moving toward that same toilet bowl.
Who is in charge now ?
It is not just a function of the virus scare,there are some oil related issues as well.
The market was just waiting for a re-set.

Usually when it is amped up and also huge deficits it will come down.

You do know that they document that in real time. Right? And, Egads! They publish them on a regular basis. So if by 'put forth', you mean they are documented and published, then yeah.

Which is the largest oil independent nation? America!
Leaders don't wait or cower - they lead and deliver results.
Let Germany buy gas/oil from Russia, with their own dang $$ and defend themselves.

Documented and published in Fake News or Real News as in a Chump tweet or in something he says ?
Who is your favorite group ; The Monkees or the Beatles ?

Are you talking about the Weimar Republic? When it took a wheelbarrow full of deutschmarks to buy bread? Surly you must be. Because if that mercy flush I heard today from Wall Street mirroring what you say, than we should throw our current leaders from some high place.

GEPOTUS TRUMP. Large and in charge.
