Are you going to try to bifurcate the river by building the wall down the middle where the actual border is? As usual with the Donald details are few and vary depending on which day he is talking and which audience he is talking to.
Oh yeah...I remember when Barack was doing his "Hope and Change" monologues he gave us all the deets on his great healthcare plan.

As President Trump I can see Trump Incentive the Mexican president to help build the way. I can see economic aid packages being held back and start the trend to pull out American Business in Mexico.


Using the Rico Act to seize all property of Illegals that ate caught. Cars, Homes , Boats, bank accounts.


I don really care if Mexico pays for it or not. The wall is need for National Security.

How about you respond to some of the questions in that post? Where is this wall going to be, right down the middle of the Rio Grande? Or will Americans on the border be forced to give up their access to the river? Will Trump use his old standby eminent domain to force American landowners from their property?

You are such a champion of this wall, how about you fill us in on these crucial details?

Trump said today they him and Mexican leadership did NOT discuss who pays for the wall, but the Mexicans are now saying the first thing they said was that Mexico WILL NOT pay for it.

In other words Trump lied, and he did it in the face of the President or Mexico and the entire nation of Mexico.

Details are to be negotiated. The grand plan is there. We just need to rally around it and tell Congress and the President to get to work hammering out the details.

Mexico could tax the Court settlement for back wages made by their citizens who worked for one of Trump's companies.

A tax / tariff will just end up hurting our consumers because companies will just past the cost along.
