Trump has begun a FAKE NEWS campaign to convince the rubes that the wall is in the process of being built. He even changed his banners at his silly little pep rallies from Build the Wall! to Finish the Wall!

Is it any surprise that it is working on them? We don't call them stupid for no reason. This is a perfect illustration of just how stupid they really are.

You don't that.
The bill hasn't even been passed and no one knows what will be in it yet.

We have "Fake News" reported by you and then we have the truth from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

I don't consider a deal that gives Trump LESS than the original one he rejected "caving".

How do you consider the idea of paying a sum for immorality.
Is it the amount or the willingness to pay ?
The willingness is the entrance into the cave.
The amount is full entry into the cave.

From your link:

“We’re on track to replace 20 miles of primary vehicle barrier in Santa Teresa, New Mexico ...”

That is, no new wall. Heck, even I don't mind replacing old sections of existing wall.

But that's not what he's telling his supporters. They think his big, beautiful wall is actually already under construction because that's what he is telling them. And like every one of his other lies, they BELIEVE!

That sounds immoral and an admission that walls work on your part. How do you explain that ?

Notice the link says :
“We’re building 35 new gates along a stretch of 55 miles of existing border wall.”

Big beautiful gates were a part of the promise Trump made.

Looks like there is a snag. This deal won't be available in time to read it and know what's in it before the deadline on Fri.
Nancy is going to be disappointed if she doesn't get to fund some immorality on time.

She had little choice. The collection of newly elected dingbats is not helping her.
Yes, Trump cleverly maneuvered her into giving him 15% less than what was offered before his tantrum. He practically crushed her knee with his groin.
