Here's where you go wrong. Did you not read my posts where I denoted that illegal aliens cost us over $100 billion every year vs $25 billion for the wall a one time expense? Congress already approved the wall back in 2006 so it's not Trump's wall anyway. The same type of wall already erected on smaller sections of the border have been proven to be very effective. How is it a waste of money then?

IF Trump had anything to do with the Russia scandal he'll have his wall a 4X8 wall.

When will the wall be built?


Probably when all those "Shovel Ready Jobs" are in place.

Ironically, the two notions dovetail perfectly.
