Since when have any presidents paid for government projects out of their own pockets? Let's face it since it's Trump you hold him to different standards and expectations than the Democrats.


By the way this isn't Trump's wall it was the wall already approved by congress back in 2006 that was never funded and here's why.

I wish Trump cared about them at all beyond using them for hostages to try and pass his legislation. They've been raised here since they were kids.

You mean like keeping his word that Mexico would pay for it? Thats a different standard or expectation?

Then you pay for the damn thing if you're so in love with the idea of the wall of stupidity.

He didn't vilify the ones who'd kept their noses clean.
It's a shame the left promised them the moon and then turned their backs on them, again.

You mean when they tried cancelling the program? Oh wait that was Trump. Or when they refused to let Trump use them as hostages for his funding?

Seriously NO ONE is buying this nonsense. The vast majority of DACA folks arent stupid enough to, thats for sure.

It needed to be cancelled, it should never have been put into place to begin with unless it was done right.
Lol, refused to let him use them as hostages, they were the ones to turn their backs on them for money.

It's more of a darn shame how liberals and ethnocentrics lie and continue to lie after all this time. Trump never vilified the DACAs he was speaking of those adults who came here illegally and he didn't say they were all bad.


The DACA program should have been cancelled as it was unconstitutional. Since when should kids be rewarded for their parent's law breaking anyway? If they and their parents had any sense of decency they would return to their homelands and apply to come back legally. They aren't special.


Since when were the DACAs or their parents citizens? What a bizarre statement to make. Doesn't matter where they were raised they have no right to be in this country. Sick of the stupid sob stories. When the DACAs reached 18 1/2 they were responsible for their own status in our country.

Well, it'll certainly result in the US deteriorating to the point where no one would voluntarily choose to live here.

Hell, Mexico would need to build the wall.

So...genius idea there.

It's not a wall of stupidity. The good walls are proven to work. I have provided links proving it. I'll tell you what we law abiding Americans will cover the costs of the wall if you anti-wall people will cover the over $100 billion a year that illegals cost us. Deal?
