What a sack of crap. Why does he care if we get a wall or not? He lives in his ivory tower surrounded by guards. Just tax money going back to Mexico for christ's sake! You will never get the traitors in congress to give money for this....the demoncrats need Illegals use as a voting bloc and the GOP are just spineless liars.
Can we up the discourse a bit instead of childish name calling ?

It won't be the fault of the 'demoncrats" if the stupid wall doesn't get built. First, Trump is adding billions to our national debt with his massive tax cut plan. Repubican congress supposedly is against spending money like a drunken sailor so THEY will not give him the funds.

The fact that Trump stiffs his contractors is well documented. Many of them were interviewed and ONE just won a lawsuit against him.

Your con man doesn't fulfill his obligations.

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.
President Trump is doing everything he can to get the wall funded, but he's not going to accept a government shutdown. He's done everything he can so far, and will continue to pursue new ways of funding it in future. Considering how unpopular the wall is even within his own party, you should be kissing his feet for the amount of persistence he's shown. Same as the sanctuary cities situation, he's doing everything he can. You sound very ungrateful.

I would say it's Mexico's fault. Weren't they supposed to pay for it? I mean that's what the Promise made by Trump, no?

"Can we up the discourse a bit instead of childish name calling ?"

Childish name calling was one of the Donald's most endearing traits for his followers. He had a childish name for every opponent he faced. Its difficult for a child to stop childish name calling. That usually stops with maturity. I really don't think a 70 year old child has much hope for maturing out of childish name calling.

I've brought up the fact that we would be saddling generations to come with a sucking black hole of never ending resources that will be necessary to maintain a 2,000 foot wall many times on this board, and not a single proponent of the wall will respond to that. Watch, and see. They will ignore it again.

You knew that...right?

this is spending money on a problem that is solving itself.
For now.
Let's fix the problem anyway, before the situation reverses itself and illegals start flooding in again sometime down the road.

But Trump said that he alone can fix everything. I don't recall him saying that he can fix everything as long as congress agrees. Maybe he didn't understand how the whole government thing works.
