Democraps are evil but not stupid.
This is a false narrative.
Illegals can't vote and you know that but the right wingers keep telling this lie.
How do you think they are going to be able vote then because they would have to become Legal citizens which isn't possible.
How do you know that 75% of illegals would vote for the Democrats anyways?
Where did you get that figure from?
Are you a mind reader?

We need a wall plus added, added security on top of that.
Didn't your mother teach you not to call someone stupid? It makes you look ignorant and low class yourself.

CBP says it's more complicated than a wall.

And some along the border doesn't think there's a need for a so-called wall.

There is plenty of proof out there that some illegals do vote. Can they do it lawfully, well no but that doesn't change that fact.


The Dems not only want the flow to continue but they want amnesty for them and a path to citizenship and that's a fact also. Presently, they are pandering for the ethnocentric type of Hispanic citizen who want their illegal amigos to keep coming here and amnesty for them and that's the reason that the Dems object to the wall. Let the truth be known.

To my knowledge it was only 1 sheriff that said they don't need a wall but the bulk of the Border Patrol agents and Homeland Security say they do. I will go with the latter's opinion plus all the evidence out there that the good walls are very effective in deterring illegal entry.

My question is how is a wall going to stop people that are already here.
