People continue to vote for the same people expecting different results. It's never going to happen.

As for the Wall, the 1.4 billion is allotted because that's the law. It was passed back in 2006 when it was 1.3 billion under Bush Jr. and has been adjusted for inflation. The ONLY way that they can NOT allocate those funds is do an override of 2/3rds of both the House and the Senate and that just ain't gonna' happen.
