Trump backed away from the wall funding this afternoon. He knows neither Dems nor Reps support it and it would torpedo the budget and shut down the gov if he insists on it. He's learning.
Given he denies climate change, it would be in his best interests to build a 3 foot thick wall, 12 feet high, around his Mar a Lago compound, and the island it sits on, with his neighboring millionaire/billionaire friends living there. But then he'd lose his view!
The electronic sensors work very well along the Mexican border, where there's not even a fence, like along the Totonah Odham Indian reservation SW of Tucson.
Doing my told ya so, told ya, told ya, told ya so, dance! Nothing to do with whether I agreed with the wall or not. Trumpsters, once again, have been punked.
If we are so concerned about illegal immigration why not pass e-verify? Also why only worry about the Mexican border? About 30% of illegal immigration comes from visa overstays.

So it appears Donny and his budget enforcer Mick Mulvaney are drawing a red line on money having to be in a spending bill to fund the wall on the Mexican Border. Apparently, if they don't get the money they and the dumpublicans will shut down the government on 4/28.
Really, and why is this even in the budget if Mexico is going to pay for the wall?
Please explain Trumpies.
Making America Confused Again!
Didn't Trump say the money was coming from repealing NAFTA?

Trump can try to shut down the government in order to force American tax payers to pay for the ineffective and stupid wall. It will only hurt him. Most Americans dont want this wall at all. Shutting down the government for it? Absurd.
Who's MOST? I''m pretty sure every one who voted for him wants it and some democrats who probably like the idea but just hate it because it comes from Trump. Who and there mother really wants an open border except illegal sympathizers?
As for the OP, he has said a million times he didn't expect Mexico to cut us a check but they will pay in other ways. But he said we can start now and just continue the secure fence act that originated back in 2006. you know, the one approved by Senators Clinton and Obama.

That's not true. Trump said a million times Mexico would pay. He only recently started talking about a deferred payment.
I'm a "Trumpie" since November of 2015. I'd like to explain, if you don't mind? I don't care if the wall is paid via taxes, via Mexico, by way of space aliens who arrive from a planet we have as of yet not identified, or how it's paid, as long as a wall, or some other form of serious surveillance separates us from Mexico forever. I'm not a picky person. It's just that at night, when I go to sleep, I close and lock my windows and doors, so criminals don't walk into my home, and I kinda like that same attitude with my beautiful country. Not all people agree with that though! Sweden, for example. Swedish girls are being raped by Middle Easterners daily, because Swedish leaders (who live in gated communities) want Middle Easterners to continue flowing into Sweden.
I guess I'm overtyping, huh? So that's all!
So only Mexicans are criminals?
Odds are the person breaking into your house is a citizen junkie looking for money for his next fix. A wall won't help you.
