that was two seconds! one second of glory, you know? ed: this is a good enough show that even it was fun. you guys rigged it against me. jedediah: it was fun to be on there, you have to admit. pete: how does it feel to be the end result of a rigged system? you should start tweeting about it. ed: really upset. i m going to tweet, be very angry about it. jedediah: protest. pete: move on. oh, man. what else should we talk about today on the show? email you say friends@foxnews.com. ed: talking about a partial government shut down entering week three. it s about illegal immigration. and guess what? a key member of the mainstream media just admitted president trump might be right. they re not going to admit that he s right about the showdown over the shutdown, but the washington post has a massive story today saying, guess what? there is a crisis, pete, at the border! the washington has figured out that out.
ed: washington post acknowledges that maybe pete s been right about it on immigration, then he says let s double it, let s triple it. pete: the win is 5 billion so it s you know, he knows negotiations better than i do. jedediah: couldn t help hims.lf pete: really? ed: all right, double, triple, let s do.it jedediah: you do make a good point, though, because you re saying that, well, donald trump has the people on his side in many and we see that in polling that s coming through. 62% very serious or somewhat serious the problem with immigration, 24% a minor problem problem. only 7% saying that this is not a problem at all. 6% unsure. so when you look at numbers like this, you re inspired to tell president trump to dig his heels in on this issue because people around the country are saying we want human trafficking, drug trafficking to be stopped, someone to take this seriously. polling is not in your favor. ed: the numbers only tell part
no, we resis.ed pete: cannot give him a win. you re exactly right. jedediah: and trump also tweeting this a.m. and where we the only reason they do not want a wall is because walls work. 99% of border crossings will end end. a properly planned and constructed wall will pay for itself many times a year. so he is not backing down. pete: a fair point. what if they don t want it because they know that walls work? jedediah: ri.ht pete: and the problem perpetuating itself is something they feed off of, the cycle of amnesty jedediah: they campaign off of. pete: more discussion and votes and let s make them legal and let s give them all driver s license, linked into the welfare system, let s get em voting. it s a complex the democrats think they benefit from while people are hurt by it. that s why i say the president is on such high ground right now now. take that $5 billion and bring it up to 15 or 25. you going to be children about this, i m going to go back to where it began. let s bu
