2.3 Trillion for that fence over a period of 10 years.............And people wonder why it never got finished and pregnant women at 9 months climbing it............LOLThe democrats supported a bill to build reinforce fences, repair exist fences and walls, hire thousands of boarder patrol, and purchase new technology in 2006. At that time, arrests at the border were running 81,000/mo. Today they are half that. In 2006, the size of the undocumented immigrant population was rising. Today it's falling and has been for a number of years.Again, no one said that they would cut us a check. However, to stay on topic. The Congress, specifically the house, is responsible for funding ALL of the government. Including the necessary security at our southern border. That necessary security includes an addition to the physical barrier already in place. Barriers that the Democrats were more than willing to spend money on just a few years ago.Exactly how are they going to pay the US government to build the wall? The trade deal? Congress has not approved it and neither Canada nor Mexico has given financially approval. Furthermore there is no payments in the deal to US government. It's just another one of Trump's lies.Trump never said Mexico was going to write a check for the wall. Now,k why would I call Trump? He has said he would open up the government when Pelosi and Schumer provide money for a border barrier. He is willing to open the government. Are Pelosi and Schumer? Have you called them and asked them if they want to open the government?Oh. I thought you cared about what happened to them. If you did, you'd call Pelosi and Schumer's office and demand they end this government shutdown.
Shouldn't you be calling Trump - and Mexico?
BTW, don't think I didn't notice that you didn't claim you cared about the people who are out of work right now.
When Mexico starts send money to build the wall, then we should start building it. Till then, Hello No.
So, let's worry about exacting our ounce of flesh from Mexico when we have those 800k workers back to work, eh?
It was a joke.
