The good news is if manic loses he's out of this thread and if he wins then welfare is out of this thread, so manic won't be encouraged anymore and might stop posting as much nonsense. Seems win win for me.

this thread was a dumpster fire ... UNTIL this wager! suddenly i'm interested again!
vegas seems to be against welfare on this, but manic could be in for a real fight!
completely offtopic, but the usernames seem backwards for their beliefs. maybe they should wager changing their names as well to: no-welfare and genderneutral-ic!

They call a wall "immoral and ineffective" yet stood behind it for the previous administrations. People can clearly see that and they just look like fools. They have no reasonable excuse for opposing funding and keeping this government shutdown going.
Trumps MO: drive them crazy to the point of self destruction.
It's really entertaining to see. | Quote:

Manic! and welfare enter into a 6-month no posting bet depending on what happens with the US Federal shutdown and inclusively whether the funding for the wall will be including in the bill that pays all non-essential gov workers.
*Bonus is if Trump declares a fed state of emergency to get funding, welfare automatically loses. If the democrats cave and allow funding for the wall, Manic! loses.

What about wall materials. What happens if the Dems agree on border funding, but not an actual wall? Manic still wins.
For welfare to win this bet, an actual wall must be approved, not fencing repair/upgrades or any crap such as that.
This is certainly interesting.

Like I said before the dems will never give him 5.6 bill for the wall. The dems already offered 1.3 bill and he said 5.6 bill or nothing. If he does not get full funding for the wall what was the point of the shut down?
First it was a concrete wall and now we are hearing chain link fence or or steel slats. You know they have home depot in Mexico right? http://www.homedepot.com.mx/
Also the 6 inch gaps will make it safer for drug dealers in Mexico. They won't have to cross the boarder they can just pass the drugs thru the gaps.

I think that's fair.
Deal? Quote:

If you haven't realized, I'm just going to keep hammering on that point.
Because it's true.

Typical trump move trying to change the terms after the fact. The bet was if the wall gets funded I lose. If the wall doesn't get funded I win.

I think you guys just need to make a generic bet:
- If trump gets funding for the wall, welfare wins.
- If trump does not get funding for the wall, Manic! wins.
Then, once this shutdown ends, if the two of you can't agree who won, it goes to 3 random RS people to determine the winner.
ie, if trump gets 5 bil, I would say welfare wins, while if he got 2bil, I would say manic wins. anything inbetween I would vote draw. (this is the most likely scenario imo)

The 'in between' was never agreed.
I think most would agree the terms are more than fair.

I'm being more than fair.
I even gave you the SOE clause. Nobody knows what that loose canon is liable to do.
I don't wanna hear your whining. I just want your answer.
Yes? Or no?
1 year prohibition from posting on RS

1 year prohibition from posting on RS | If the wall gets funded you win if I doesn't I win. Anything above 2.8 bill for a new wall you win any thing below I win. New wall not repairs or beefing up the existing walls/gates/fences etc. Same 6 month ban. None of this draw B.S.

The goal hasn't been a 30 foot concrete wall for 2000miles for a long time, stop pretending it is.
If manic says anything less than a full wall is a lose for welfare then I would say anything more than $20 towards a wall is a loss for manic.
Edit: what am I even doing here. I need for remove RS from my bookmarks this place is ridiculous.
