I'll save you some time - you can't. It doesn't exist. He's been throwing screaming temper tantrums for 2 years, demanding tens of billions of dollars for some sort of barrier, but he has never once laid out a specific plan for exactly what he wants to build with that money.

You really never noticed that?

Has there ever really been any doubt? These are the stupidest people I've ever met in my life. It's never been anything less than blindingly obvious.
The current DHS website:
https://www.dhs.gov/news/2018/12/12/walls-work
Quote:
DHS is committed to building a wall at our southern border and building a wall quickly. Under this President, we are building a new wall for the first time in a decade that is 30-feet high to prevent illegal entry and drug smuggling.
That - along with "By the end of FY 2019, DHS expects to have construction completed or underway for more than 120 miles in the areas it’s most needed by the U.S. Border Patrol."

Is IT. Why we've shut down the government. For "a wall, a 30-feet high wall."

There is something seriously wrong with this picture.

Never expect anyone to ever change their mind based on what they read in a forum.

Put it is fascinating to poke a bit at the balloon only to realize it does not break, or even wince.

Repeating "tRump" over and over again doesn't make it funny.

So this thread is a bit premature, I assume???

Because if Trump had won anything at all, there would have been dozens of tweets from Donny crowing about how wonderful he is. But there aren't. Just the same old offensive misspelled inanities.

So where are the funds?

Where are the Pesos???

Anything with the word "artisan" in it gets my scam alert going.

I was sorta into the Solar Panel part.

Let's say you win. Then what you got? What's gonna stop the 5000 people from rushing the border. What's in it for you?

OK, so his specific plan is that he is now going to beef up 700 miles of existing fence, and add 300 more? That's it, then?

And you say it's "common knowledge?"

Yet you can't seem to find a link to support that. I wonder why.

So, I'm calling bull****.

If they admit it now, it would be less painful and humiliating for them, in the long-run.
