Trump and the biblical Nehemiah and the wall

[Wyatt earp]

It appears the similarities are astounding..


Nehemiah - Wikipedia



Nehemiah 1:1-7:3 – Nehemiah Rebuilds the Walls of Jerusalem
Summary
Authorized by the Persian authorities, Nehemiah leads a third return of Jewish exiles and rebuilds the walls of Jerusalem, despite the relentless opposition of Sanballat and his associates.
Analysis
This long section comprises most of what scholars call the Nehemiah memoir, an autobiographical narrative in which Nehemiah recounts the events of his first term as governor of the Persian satrapy/province variously known as "Beyond the River" or Yehud; especially significant is the rebuilding of the wall of Jerusalem despite the opposition of the surrounding leaders. It falls into an extensive concentric structure in which the beginning section is paralleled in some way with the final section, the second with the next to last, and so on.

Nehemiah 4:4-6 New International Version (NIV)
4 Hear us, our God, for we are despised. the builders.

6 So we rebuilt the wall till all of it reached half its height, for the people worked with all their heart.

Nothing to discuss, well stated and referenced! A trus shovel ready job for those unemployed along the boarder states.

The job is far from "shovel ready". Where are the blueprints? Where are the environmental reports, plans and specifications that bidding contractors will need in order to tender the job? Does the government own the land? Who has been contracted to acquire the property. Have "eminent domain" proceedings have been started.

So far the President has an idea for a wall/fence/barrier. That's all he has. And the biggest part of the reason why he doesn't have funding is that he doesn't have any of the stuff in the paragraph above, so that Congress can make a well-reasoned decision as to the costs and what's needed to get the job done.

Political correctness does not qualify as competent

Absolutely no comparison whatsoever. Night and day. Black and white. Apples and oranges. Not even remotely comparable.

There are many quotes in the Good Book also against withholding pay.

A great deal closer to shovel ready then you comprehend. The president is not the contractor, or architect, just another American politician supporting the project. As for cost, National Security takes precedence.

God did not send us Donald Trump and anyone who thinks he did is an idiot.

This isn't a "national security" matter any more than the steele tariff against Canadian made steel isn't a "national security" matter. This is the lie Trump uses when he has no valid reason to doing something.

LOL, can they PROVE they require "asylum"? The law requires it, just saying "I feel threatened" doesn't do it. Like I have said, westerners will die because o some of these people. I hope it's someone you love just so you can get some perspective.

Can YOU prove they don't? Many who failed to prove their case adequately and were deported, are now dead.

Honduras and El Salvador are two of the most dangerous countries in the world - worse than Syria.
