No, I prefer using illegal alien labor, then don't pay them but deport them.

Excellent cost savings.

Any of his supporters ready to admit this??? I mean, if he lets you down on the wall, can you ever believe him again???? Seriously.


^^^^ Everyone knows this is true, except some Trump supporters......they ACTUALLY THOUGHT he was serious about that damn wall ! In one rally, where he said "I am going to build a wall !" , you can hear some woman yelling "YES, YES !" in the background. They bought into the idea hook, line, and sinker, and it was simply a know nothing real estate salesman selling them the con job of the century.

But now, Trump is , of course, shifting blame for not building it onto congress. What happened to "I am going to make the Mexicans pay for it........believe me !" ?

You're aware that many members of congress, including republicans whose districts would be along the wall, have spoken out against it....right?

even quite a few republican members of congress and senate think the wall is a bad idea...

Oh my God, I can't believe that this nonsense is still being spewed in here after I have posted the facts umpteen times in here. It truly boggles the mind.

Rumor has it and you know what they say about rumors. The wall isn't a Trump project it's a government project approved by congress back in 2006. Get back with us when the government has a record of stiffing workers. I'll wait!

Cheeto? My how grown up of you. Congress already approved the wall back in 2006.

Completely shameless. Your marvelous negotiator can't deliver on yet another one of his central promises, and presto, it was never really his idea, when you think about it.

Goes with his character, though - success is his, failure is due to other people. Losers.

That bill was for 700 miles of fence, not a big beautiful wall, and that money is almost all spent.
