The fight over not securing the borders must be really important to the Democratic Party leadership. When considering that the Federal government is the nation's largest employer (over 22 million according to Time-dot-com), and Democrats are all about jobs, their stubbornness over border security is quite curious. The entire resistance movement encouraged by the likes of Hillary Clinton, the immediate past-"president," the Democratic National Committee, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters (D-CA) and others takes on a new meaning when they are willing to put so many people who are living from paycheck to paycheck in financial jeopardy over just ensuring that people come to this country legally.
President Donald Trump made his case to the American people this week about why border security measures, among them the "wall," is in the best interest of national security. It's a pretty hard sell among those 22 million people when they start looking at a stack of bills that need paid and they haven't received a paycheck for a few weeks. Sure, when this mess gets worked out, they will get paid, but the pressure is still there. The Democratic leadership knows this and that is the biggest lever to pressure the President in a different direction. Fewer and fewer people will care about something they think doesn't affect them when their own financial well-being is on the line. So the pressure mounts.
The "wall" is immoral, they say. But by what standard? How can anyone claim the moral high ground when they consistently fight and vote for spending your tax money for the questionable moral things they believe are most important? Tim Elliott of Grabie News researched some of the Democrat-supported funding that goes into the budget. Let's take a look-see. Some $10 billion to the United Nations, $5 million of which goes to abortions in foreign countries; some $750 million to Planned Parenthood; $613,634 to boost "intimacy and trust" of transgender women and their male partners; more than $50 billion per year for "foreign development" in Egypt, Sudan, Uganda, South Africa, Russia, Congo, and Zambia. Spending $5 billion on national security, however, is so immoral that it's worth shutting the government down.
This is the problem when we elect people who mock God, not only in word, but in deed. Not funding and enforcing effective border security has and is causing an increase in murders, sex trafficking, drug trafficking, communicable disease, and other crime. It also stresses taxpayers because we are being taxed billions for social services used by illegals. And come election time, there is massive voter fraud contributing to the election of certain members of a certain political party. Whether in salvation, abiding by God's laws, or honoring the blessings bestowed upon us by the Lord, what are we told in Galatians 5:1? "Stand fast in the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage." When immorality becomes systemic in a large enough people group, bondage will follow.
