You’d have a point if you weren’t lying about the $100 billion number to begin with.
It's no lie. I posted my source and they included their sources in their study. Shouldn't our number one concern be to keep them out of here simply because it's against our immigration laws anyway? There are so many other negative impacts they bring without even considering the fiscal impact. Let's start with the construction, landscaping jobs that they took from Americans by working for less and yes the employers are equally guilty. Doesn't that matter to you at all?
WASHINGTON
An effort to mandate that every employer use a system to check that their employees are working in the country legally was rejected by House leaders Tuesday — a strong signal that those pushing immigration reform do not believe it has enough support to be passed as part of a comprehensive immigration bill. https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/pol...213791734.html
So what's your point? I said Trump has it in his 2019 budget. Your link is dated June of this year. It's not the Republicans who were/are pushing some phoney reform which is just amnesty again. Why does amnesty have to be attached to it? It's because the Democrats are holding e-verify hostage to get their amnesty.
Chain link? That's what we have now and it's not working. Why do you oppose the wall already approved by congress back in 2006? Shouldn't congress fulfill their promise and fund it? Where that type of wall has been built on shorter sections of the border it has been very effective in deterring illegal entry.
I'm against this overpriced project. Congress approved something different than what he's doing. But, whatever, man.

We could reposition Trump's failed businesses along the border with cardboard cut-outs of the thousands of people he screwed out of their pay and those he sent to the unemployment line. That might scare off a few folks. Why would anyone sign on to build a wall for this A-hole given his track record and his failed policies?
Sure, it will! And Mexico will pay for it!
(Trump couldn't even get Congress to agree to pay for the Wall, even when he had control of both the Senate and the House.)
I have already addressed this constant harping about Mexico paying for the wall over and over again in here. I'm not going to keep repeating it over and over just read what I have said about in under my other posts in here.
For funding to pass on any legislation it takes some Democrats to be on board and there are many RINO's in congress that won't back Trump on anything he tries to do. So I don't know why you and yours keep harping about a congress controlled by the GOP.

There's also that small problem that the wall won't work...which is mainly why people are against the whole idea.
Why are we paying for it then? Maybe he could wait until he gets enough money from Mexico. That would be the correct thing to do.
The correct thing to do is to fund it because we need it. How is it not cost effective when illegal immigration costs us over $100 billion a year? We'd be money ahead by building it. A bi-partisan congress already approved it back in 2006 so it was their responsibility to fund it in the first place!
Your link is lying. If anything was built it wasn't the type of wall approved. Only 30 miles of the approved double wall was built under Obama.
Why is Trump seeking money for the wall if it's already been built....think about it! He is no longer advocating for a wall along the entire border either.
