If you don't know by now and we have to explain it to you, you would NOT understand!

The wall obsession has got to stop. There will be no wall, except maybe this one:

You don't know that. And who says we have to promptly remit payments the first chance we get? First pay the famiies of the 247 Marines killed in Beirut and let's see how much is left. Stop worrying about Iran first.

I know. I have explained over and over again why we need the wall and that it's cost effective and already proven to work (with links provided). I have also posted a link denoting what Trump's plan is down the line so that Mexico involuntarily to pay for the wall and these anti-wall people are in here day after day making the same lame remarks. Must have cement between their ears.


And now they come back asking why we don't put a wall on our northern border when that's not the border where the overwelmingly number of illegals are coming through? Are they really this stupid or just acting like they are?
