Utter nonsense! Why do you care anyway since the wall is well needed, cost effective and proven to be a very effective tool to deter illegal entry into our county? I have posted a link numerous times of what Trump's plan is at least he is trying.


Why weren't you and yours upset when congress passed the wall bill back in 2006 without even an attempt to make Mexico pay for it but told up front that the taxpayer would fund it? Hmm.

Your explanation doesn't hold water. Trump said over and over again that Mexico will pay for the wall. Not American tax payers will pay for the wall and Mexico will pay us back somehow!

I’m guessing that Trump supporters stuck thier fingers in their eyes when Trump made that statement.

If it is what the people want why are the House Republicans scrambling to find votes. That's why there hasn't been a vote.

They have publicly said they don't have the votes yet.

And, what...? Does that make it okay when they lie? You know, when they say things like "If you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor" [I'm paraphrasing here so no need to have apoplexy].

Did you get this upset when Obama lied to you over and over? Did you take him to task on any lies he told?

Yes, it does but it doesn't fit your hate Trump narrative. Were you equally upset when the wall bill was approved by congress in 2006 that it was to be the taxpayer to fund it and not Mexico?

Let's not forget Obama's big whopper of a lie where he stated that he couldn't pass any immigration legislation for illegal aliens without congress' approval. Yet he gave millions of them a stay of deportation via DACA and DAPA along with work permits all on his own. According to our laws illegals don't even have the lawful right to work here. At least Trump isn't breaking any laws by wanting to fund the wall no matter who pays for it.

Well heck, President Trump has six years left to get Mexico to pay for the wall.

FYI, GW Bush got us into the Iraq War. Very bad decision. Although next to Trump, GWB is a Saint!
Hillary would have kept the failed "Paris Accord" in place and destroyed the domestic oil and gas industry. Tens of thousands of jobs lost and people could not afford to turn on the heat in their homes. She would have continued with the failed NAFTA treaty, done nothing to reign in the trade problems with the EU and China and would have signed the TPP. She was corrupt to her core.
