But Congressional Dems have as much power as Trump to reopen it.
Dems are keeping it shut down over one tenth of one percent of the budget just to spite Trump.
There was a deal in the works until Ann Coulter vetoed it. Now Trump owns the shutdown. He even said so: "I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down."
They're not denying that the border needs to be more secure. No one is denying that. There are better, more efficient and more timely options to doing that than a wall. There are already barriers along the southern border. A 2,000 mile wall is not feasible.
Similarly, Conan O’Brien posted a picture with a beautiful backdrop when vacationed in Haiti. Proof positive that’s it’s rich, developed, and safe all over the country. Cause pretty landscapes definitely mean no crime.
For starters, the Chinese did not have to haggle with land owners to get land through emient domain. They also didn't do any environmental studies to see how such a wall might harm wildlife, etc.
When you debate someone, it's usually not good to tell the other side what they think, especially when the other side does not think this. So you not only resort to silly namecalling, you also tell us how we really feel essentially calling us liars. Not to mention it's not how we feel. As trobesmom pointed out, they want border security. So again, Trump's barrierwallfenceslats is not the only way (or even the best way, in my opinion) to fight illegal immigration.
Name one reason that we shouldn’t build the wall. Who gives a crap about the wildlife when people are dying by the thousands? What kind of excuse is that?
You just don’t care about your fellow Americans and only care about your votes. The sooner we become honest to each other, the sooner we can stop wasting each other’s time.
Land mines are too noisy, the Dimms would complain about noise pollution.
How about stocking the Rio Grande with gators?
The real solution would be to adopt the laws that Mexico has on immigration. Sneak in a second time and do 10 years in the calaboose.
Ten years sounds about right for the Americans that employ the undocumented and twenty if they happen to be in Congress members and refuse to pass sensible reforms.
IDK OP. Put some in your front yard and see how that works out.
