CONFIRMED: President Trump Can Sell Federal Land To Build The Wall

[OnePercenter]

Wait, so Mexico paying for it was a LIE?

So Trump lied at all those rallies?

He's just a big orange pig liar POS?

No one gives a **** whether Mexico pays, moron. Just as you didn't give a **** if we could keep our doctors or that our healthcare would be $2500 cheaper.

You're a Canadian.

 

[Lysistrata]

So now the orange whore/conman wants to sell the birthright of the People of the United States to pay for his outlandish dream. I hope that they get this pig out of office pronto!

 

[OnePercenter]

So what? It would still take an act of Congress to authorize the expenditure. And unless we're selling the public land to Mexico....well, I think it's obvious.

Unless we're selling the land to Mexico, what?

It's not clear that it takes an act of Congress. It didn't take an act of Congress for Obama to declare umpteen million acres of land to be national monuments. The federal government buys and sells land all the time without Congress getting involved.

You're Canadian.

 

[Care4all]

no, federal land belongs to all of us and should not be sold to pay for a southern wall!

 

[OnePercenter]

It's not clear that it takes an act of Congress.

It's not clear to you because you are an idiot. Anyone who isn't an idiot knows that only Congress can appropriate money out of the treasury.

Selling land isn't appropriating money out of the federal treasury. Before you further prove yourself to be an idiot, why don't you wait to see what happens?

Nothing is going to happen. tRump is all lip service. You're Canadian.

We are selling our portion of Federal land for the wall. You people can have some worthless land in Nevada okay.

If he’s selling land he is taking money in not spending it Einstein.

And for that money to then be spent on building a border wall would be.....what?

Any guesses?

Oh, come on. I gave you a hint.

It's right there in the question.

If that money is spent on building a border wall, that would be......?

SPENDING!

Which can only be done by Congress.

Congratulations, Einstein. You are now almost as smart as a 5th grader.

He's just a big orange pig liar POS?

As compared to the brown pos obamaturd?

President Barack Hussein Obama never promised a wall financed by Mexico.

No shit. Nobody said it is. Spending money to build a border wall is an appropriation of out the treasury. It doesn't matter if every square inch of public land is sold to Mexico at $5 billion a sqft, spending that money to build a border wall still has to come from Congress.

President Obama is everything the orange idiot isn't, nor cares to be, such as, moral, ethical, truthful, faithful, intelligent...

But then again, idiot scumbags like you love being lied to and played for the fools that you are.

Is Mexico going to buy the land?

CONFIRMED: President Trump Can Sell Federal Land To Build The Wall - Big League Politics

To build a wall along the United States’ international border with Mexico, President Donald Trump could order the sale of approximately 500,000 to 5 million acres of federal land. The U.S. Government currently claims ownership of about 640 million acres of land — or about 28% of the total land mass of the nation. This could raise the entire $25 billion needed to finance building the wall (not just the next installment we are currently fighting over).

But one must understand that out of 640 million acres there is a vast diversity of terrain. The task is to select only between around 0.08% to 0.78% of that total land. Most federally-owned land is not suitable. But some land would be appropriate for sale to the State government, the County, or the general public. Some Western public land is nothing but empty grassland, just ordinary grazing land. Some public land is indistinguishable from the type of land currently owned and used by private citizens. In some cases, there seems to be no plausible reason for the federal government to be holding the land at all.

Decisions about which public lands within a state to consider as candidates must be nominated by each State government. It cannot be the President deciding, because left-wing interests groups will demagogue the issue. The State must identify which lands are not environmentally sensitive, culturally historic, important for scenic or recreational purposes, or reasonably claimed by Native Americans. Throwing those decisions to the States allows all the stake-holders to debate the choices, minimizing left-wing hysteria.​

So, now we are up to like the 5th thing Trump can do to build the wall. So why is he keeping the government closed with all these other options? Is he just being a dick?

Taking land. Sounds very american.

Who's he taking it from, asshole?

How is vacant government land "the birthright of the People of the United States?" Why should the government even own it? We're not talking about Yellowstone National Park. The government owns millions of acres of empty desert and scrub that no one would ever want to look at.

 

[bripat9643]

no, federal land belongs to all of us and should not be sold to pay for a southern wall!

Why not, because you stomped your foot?
