A wall is a wall!And you really see the relationship between the US and Mexico as the same as that between East Germany and West Germany before reunification?Not any more, they built it in 1961 and it came down in 1989.Does Russia have wall? I mean in the real world, not just in your fantasies.I would rather the money go to something actually useful, like drug addiction treatment than pissed away on a worthless useless Russian type wall.So you agree with the bill in principle but believe the funds the US prosecutors are mistaken about how much money he has. The good news for you is that the title of the bill is an acronym for Ensuring Lawful Collection of Hidden Assets to Provide Order, and that it will include all funds recovered from other drug dealers and traffickers. I hope that will put your decimal point anxieties to rest.Except El Chapo has nowhere near $14 billion! The most he has ever been estimated to have is $1.4 billion, none of which has been seized by the US government yet, but what is a lousy decimal point in Right-wing fuzzy math land.
