Agree..... problem is this wall was sold to a certain class of Trump voter as a new Great Wall of China. Dems and thoughtful republicans knew Mexico would not pay for it and since it was such a stupid idea that we would never see it funded.

What constitutes "the wall" has turned into a moving target, the scope of it has slid from a giant 2,000 plus mile behemoth to a fence today. Of course dems have voted for border fencing before, it helps in certain urban situations and contributes to the safety of both Mexicans and Americans. I live in such an area and have no problem improving existing fencing if it can show that it is an effective use of money.

There is way too much hyperbole and unsubstantiated "facts" being tossed around by Trump and Co. to give him billions to **** away so he can claim victory at the border.

Who’s talking about Obama? We are talking about the wall your soft headed lying moron president promised that Mexico would pay for. Isn’t it funny that Trump supporters are always making excuses for the moron? When are you finally going to admit that this guy is a disaster? Wake up and quit watching faux news.

Hahaha....nobody triggers liberals like Trump. The night of the last election was the most entertaining election of all time for me. Looking forward to all the liberal crying and screaming come the next election night. Laughing is good.


What difference does it make how it's paid for? It simply needs to be there. More importantly enforce existing immigration laws. Now go ahead and talk about Trump.

And here I thought Trump supporters believed in the wall. Looks like if they have to pay, they really do not. So far less than 300,000 out of 63 million Trump supporters have donated for the wall. Talk about major fail.

No.

Taxed Enough Already.

Trump has imposed massive taxes on imports already, and enough is enough.

Bingo. Time to start calling these people out on their BS.

Ready for this? This just blew my mind. Around 60 million people voted for Donald Trump in 2016. So if all 60,000,000 people would donate $100 do the gofundme for Trump's wall, it would generate SIX BILLION! A billion more than what Trump is asking for!

So if every single one of the sixty million trump voters put up $100, Trump's wall would be FULLY FUNDED.

Come on, Trumpers! Pull out those wallets!

The families of those murdered by an illegal alien want a wall.


Why don't liberals pay for the wall? They voted for these traitor democrats that always vote against enforcement of immigration law.
