Border Wall Update: 83 Miles Completed---153 Miles Under Construction--273 Miles In Preconstruction

Trump deleted all his campaign promises from his web site. Gee, I wonder why...

Here's one: DONALD J. TRUMP: COMPELLING MEXICO TO PAY FOR THE WALL

BEFORE: I am going to make Mexico pay for The Wall!

AFTER: I am going to shut down the government until the American taxpayer pays for the wall!

 

[Mac1958]

We've gone from inspiring the world to hiding behind a wall.

The decay continues.

It's my view that the people screaming for a wall are no diifferent than the ones blaming all of the mass shooting on guns.

If in one breath you argue that taking away guns won't stop criminals, and in the other breath say that putting up a wall will stop criminals, where is the logic?

Criminals gonna crime no matter what. And, as always, the freedoms of law abiding citizens are the ones targeted.

While claiming that other people show a lack of logic, you display and utter dearth of logic. You compare building a wall to restricting access to weapons which aren't even remotely comparable.

First off, seeking asylum isn't a crime. Crossing the border to seek asylum isn't a crime. Asylum seekers aren't criminals.

People who oppose the wall, are people who KNOW that the wall isn't a solution. "Build the wall" was an idea to remind Donald Trump to talk about immigration at his rallies. Chant happy Trumpists starting chanting "Build the wall", but this was never a policy that Trump gave a second's thought for until the idea proved popular with his followers.

Had Trump looked at what happened when W attempted to build a wall, he might have been smarter about this. No cost studies, short or long term, no idea of whether it will work or not - and what about the eminent domain cases still outstanding from W's attempt to build a wall.

Building a wall just because Trump's supporters liked the idea is a piss poor reason for spending $50 billion and who knows how much more to man it and maintain it, because no wall has ever worked unless it's manned 24/7 every 100 feet or so. And that's a physical impossibility along a 3000 miles border.

Opposing the waste of money that is Trump's wall does not mean that anyone is in favour of "open borders". It simply means that we're smart enough to know that most illegal immigrants some in through the airports, not the southern borders.

Seems to me that the end goal to both policies is inventorying Americans in a database biometrically. It's precisely what we're seeing.

Perhaps my lying eyes have led me to think it through a little more than you?

I mean, the new catch phrase isn't 'undocumented immigrants' for nothing, is it?

What choice do we have when Dims refuse to enforce the border?

A total fucking pile of lies. We don't need any "cost studies" to determine what the wall will cost. We can get contractors to gives us bids on it for free. We already know it will work. We have examples already of walls that work.

It doesn't have to be manned every hundred feet. That's absurd. The Israeli wall is manned only about every two miles. We already have to man the border 24/7, especially at night. The wall reduces the amount of manpower required. It doesn't increase it. You have to suffering brain damage if you believe a border with a wall requires more manpower than a border without on. This fact alone shows how fucking stupid opposition to the wall is.

The long and the short of it is that your a sleazy lying moron.

Excellent------The more miles that are built, the more miles it makes America great again, AND SAFER!.

PRETTY FUNNY REALLY. To see people that after the 9/11 attacks and the many illegals, drug runners and criminals coming in from the south, USE EVERY ARGUMENT POSSIBLE no matter how specious to ridicule the increased security of their own country!

Kinda makes you wonder whether their problem is coconuts for brains, or, having an agenda that is not in the interest of the American people!

I think that cost study has already been done anyway. Every estimate of the total cost of illegal immigration I have ever seen is always about 20X higher than the cost to build even the highest, best wall we can ever imagine.

BUILD THE DAMNED WALL

Trump can have Mexico pay for the wall by imposing a "remittance tax" on money sent out of the USA.
If congress passes a remittance tax, the wall is paid for.
If congress passes a "transaction tax" on all financial transactions the Budget Deficit is much lower.
If congress passes a VAT (3% Federal sales tax) the Budget Deficit is nearly paid for
If congress passes a law removing the tax cut on the top rate the Budget is Balanced (incl. the above new taxes)

So don't whine to Trump about who pays for the wall. Whine to congress.

What choice do we have when Dims refuse to enforce the border?

They're not refusing to enforce the border. Back away from the radio for a while.

And there are other things that can be done to address this issue. They would just take a little thinking, instead of banging on our problems with a stick.

Yes, of course.
Everything worked so well in the past.

Correct. Time to THINK and try something NEW.

Doesn’t matter

We will tear down the wall once Trump is gone

Bet you won't. Knowing you bottom-feeders as I do, you'll probably try to take credit for Trump's wall.

The wall will be torn down as soon as Trump leaves in 2021
Mexico will pay for it

 

[rightwinger]

Show all the pics of wall climbers you want.

The fact is less that one percent of illegals have the physical ability to climb it.

WHICH MAKES THE WALL OVER 99% EFFECTIVE!

Holes in the fence are so difficult to go through
Hard to find a Mexican with the skills to climb a ladder

Good! Go with that. You'll get more illegals voting Dem then ever before.

I hope they let you draft the Dem platform.

For what reason?

Free people do not allow concentrated wealth to wall them into a militarized police state with concentrationc camps.

Well you see if didn't hate this country and wasn't ignorant. You would realize that the wall is to keep people from coming here illegally. Even when the wall is complete, you can leave this great country. I even encourage you do .
