I hope he never gives in and gets his funding, even if nations shutdown indefinitely. Even if democrats take over the next presidency at least we can have a wall to show we tried to make America right. democrats will bulldoze it down, dont make it easy.
Let’s Think that through a bit. Let’s say Trump gets funding. Let’s even say he gets re-elected (God forbid). That means at best he’s got 6 more years. No way will the wall be completed in that time, and no way are future presidents or Congresses likely to keep funding it. If the Democrats get control they would likely put a screeching halt to any work.
The majority of Americans are opposed to the idea of the wall. Any money spent on it during whatever time Trump has left in office is likely going to be wasted.
If he gets any funding and the project actually starts, stopping it and cries of ‘Tear Down The Wall’ will be prime fodder for any candidate that opposes him from either party. Pink Floyd campaign themes will be everywhere.
Given that the House is actually supposed to be providing some oversight on matters, it is likely this trip was planned some weeks ago after the election to get new committee chairs to get the perspective on various matters from the boots on the ground folks.
Just because Trump travels to places and learns little, doesn't mean this is the situation with everyone.
However, I suspect that given the current situation she would want to be here to be on top of things. Who knows, maybe Trump will come to his senses.
Wouldn't want to be Kandahar when that happens.
