What about tax payers paying for illegal aliens on welfare. More like 100 billion there. The wall is a bargain in comparison.
I thought about donating $200 to the wall but instead decided to spend $200 on groceries to hand out via the food bank to local needy families, mostly hispanic. Better use of the money
"Airman Brian Kolfage, the veteran who lost both of his legs & an arm in the Iraq War, has raised nearly $20 million for the border wall, and things are about to explode as lawyers are wrapping up the legal end of the campaign to begin construction."
I like the billboards someone donated.
Is there a timetable for construction to begin?
Have all of the property owners been notified?
What sort of compensation are they going to receive?
Actually Trump got 62,979,636 votes and if you divide that by 5 Billion , all of his voters would only have to cough up is $79.36 a piece.
What a bargain huh?
Let them pay for it!
Just like a liberal, let someone else foot the bill so I can benefit and not contribute anything. Illegals aren't just murdering and raping conservatives you know??

I'm pretty sure some guys lawyers can not force the government to build anything. His lawyers also can not compel land owners to give up their property for a wall.
Honestly what are his lawyers doing besides getting paid by the hour courtesy of the rubes that donated?

It was Trump that said that someone else was going to pay for it. Remember the whole Mexico will pay for the wall thing at his ego stroking parties?
But only if they also raise another $25 billion or so to pay for the upkeep and maintenance into perpetuity as well. We, the taxpayers, shouldn't be on the hook for that, either.
They've got a long, long way to go...
Yup this is what I was going to say. Would leave to see them then upkeep that wall with the maintenance needed and what not. Also, the money to also add in the workers who will help guard this new crazy long wall.
Perhaps THEN they will learn how ridiculous this idea is.
It costs 49 billion a year to educate children who have been dragged into or sent into The United States.
The Wall is a bargain.
All Dems can do is chant the same unfounded nonsense over and over - it ain't gonna work; you guys are suckers; I thought Mexico was going to pay; and on and on.
Keep the government shut until Congress comes up with a comprehensive immigration plan that makes sense and is funded. They have had 40 years to work on it; now would be a good time. Dems don't want a wall? ...... Come up something else. 'Cuz I don't think Trump is going to give in to your demands that he open up while you "negotiate".
Well only another $5.68 billion to go. I think it is good that those who love a wall are going to pay for it. Last I heard 70,000 had donated out of 50,000,000 who voted for Trump. Kind of says something about how much they really want a wall.
i'm sure tons of private dollars will go into the free healthcare for all in NYC
