Find one Texas rancher on the Mexican border who voted DEM.
These ranchers have already made deals with the Gov. to lease the land.
They are getting a lot more in lease fees than they get from grazing a few head of cattle on the narrow strips of land involved.
Everyone is happy with the deals except the mexican cartels and the DEM party who are watching tens of thousands of illegals, who they assumed are one day going to vote DEM now being kept out of the US.
Maybe the DEMs should be going back to the negro 'well' again.

Is he saying Texas ranchers are leasing land to the govt for the wall? Or is he referring to the welfare ranchers we all support so they don't have to pay their own way?
In Texas, Even Trump Supporters Hate the Border Wall
The fence in Brownsville is 18 feet tall and made from rusty iron bars. I could climb it in about 15 seconds. "Our record is eight," says Michael Seifert, an organizer for the Equal Voice Network, a coalition of civic groups in the Rio Grande Valley.
It has cost more than $6 million per mile to build, and it runs through farmers' fields and townspeople's backyards. The local consensus is that it hasn't helped anyone except contractors and drug cartels.

Border towns to Trump: The wall won't work
150 Miles of Hell
How a border fence destroyed a tight community
JACUMBA HOT SPRINGS, California – When Steven Rogers moved into this small town in San Diego County’s Mountain Empire region, he had no idea the international border was just a few miles away.
"We wondered about all of the border patrol," said Rogers.

Living near the border, Rogers, a retired Vietnam veteran, has never witnessed a cartel shootout or uncovered an underground border tunnel. He is more scared of snakes than border crime.
“We’ve seen some Hispanic people come across and we gave them water and food, helped them out,” said Rogers, 62. “We just figured that’s the thing to do. If we were coming to a new country and we were risking our lives I’d want someone to help me.”

Me too. When I lived west of Tucson, I helped a lot of migrant workers. Every single one of them had a job waiting for them. Most came back for the same job every year and when they came to my door, they always offered to pay for the help I gave them.
Migrant farm workers are not taking jobs. No one is "taking jobs" away from Americans. Employers are giving the jobs to people who will or who can do the work.
RWNJ white men whine they are discriminated against and get get those plum jobs, picking strawberries in the blazing sun for almost no pay. If you want a job, get off your butt and get one. Just please stop whining about Mexicans working their butts off and keeping your produce affordable.
