I just hope that it will be built. I don't care what the Neocons are saying they didn't want Trump as president anyway. If the 700 mile long wall weren't feasible then the Secure Fence Act wouldn't have passed through congress. You're entitled to your opinion but I disagree with you that it won't be built.
For the record I called the "fence" silly, not our newly elected POTUS. Just want to make that clear. Look back at my posts and you'll see that. Once again, we'll revisit in four years. It IS just my opinion that a "great wall" won't be built, but my opinion is not merely based on what I want or don't want.

Let's just wait and see who pays or if it even gets built. If he does build the wall it is going to add to the deficit. Let's hear the righties whine then....

I am with you . Our national Defense and Security is more important than dealing with a 3rd world country like Mexico. Besides Mexico will pay for more ways than one.


The US and Mexico always had uneasy relationship going way back!

It's not going to add to the deficit. Stopping more illegals from coming here will make it pay for itself.

Viable sources say $113 billion a year for those illegals already here. Unless we build the wall those costs will increase.

As they have done for the decades of illegal Mexicans being welcomed, given employment, welfare bennies, free education and multiple amnesties by BOTH parties. Soooo........

The wall ain't gonna get built and the tide will only change when prosecution of those businesses hiring them is done to the fullest extent of the law. Do you foresee Trump prosecuting himself?

I didn't think so.

I am already aware of that and that's what needs to stop! It's merely your opinion that the 700 mile long
wall won't be built already approved by congress. Yes, e-verify needs to be mandated to stop the illegal hiring practices also but it isn't only jobs that bring them here it's benefits and birthright citizenship for their kids also. All incentives need to be removed. Not all that come here are looking for any of the above either such as criminals and terrorists, thus the wall Did you not read the link I provided that proves that walls work? Do you still remain in denial anyway?


It has never been proven that Trump personally hired illegal aliens so why would he prosecute himself?
