Really? Are you unaware that both Schumer and Obama passed the actual wall bill back in 2006? Why did they do that if it were too expensive and wouldn't work and had environmental issues?
The good walls already in place have been very effective in deterring illegal entry. Oh, I forgot you lefties think they are ineffective unless 100% of illegals are stopped? 80-90% isn't good enough for you?
I guess you guys know better than the Border Patrol and Homeland Security that state they do work and are needed? WTH?
The wildlife and environmental excuses are bogus also. The wall is only for 700 miles on the most porous areas of our border and there will always be legal ports of entry.
It's Nancy and Chuck that don't want to negotiate. A week ago Schumer said no wall, period. At a meeting this week Nancy said the same. Where's the negotiating on their part with those statements.?
You can keep trying to put words in people's mouths, but you don't get any closer to a truth.
1 It's not the "lefties" that arent happy with less than 100%.
2 Which Border Patrol & Homeland Security personnel do we beliwve? You are aware of dissenting opinions, are you not?
3 Wildlife & environment concerns are not bogus. Do a little research. Animals & floodwaters do not confine to legal ports of entry.
4 Trump has refused every opportunity to discuss border issues, which go beyond this overpriced wall.
Trump must check his ego. I heard a piece on the news about him continuing to insist on this wall with no concession. In it, he was talking about staying the course because "his senators" will hold him to it. They are the people's. He needs to understand this country is more than his base.
As I watch the debate about the building of the wall I wonder if those who oppose it actually know that? I watch the Chuck and Nancy laugh and joke and hold hostage good and knowing Americans.
There were good people, young raped, tortured and killed by the people who come in illegally?
Honestly, to my mind, I cannot fathom how any person would not vote to support a barrier to prevent this and I am not seeking any answers. I want you to examine what you gain by taking part in your refusal to support our President. As you search the rhetoric present in the current debate let us not forget those who have been killed.
Please remember these noble and beautiful people killed by illegal immigrants.
Before I even read the leftist replies in here (actually I won't because I'm sick of the parrots in here) these will be the usual lame excuses.
1. A wall is useless and ineffective (in spite of the facts to the contrary) because it won't stop illegal entry 100%.
2. It's too expensive. Actually a $25 billion wall is cheaper than the over $100 billion a year that illegals cost us.
3. They will deflect with the visa over stayers even though there are thousands still jumping our border every month.
4. But, but, but I thought Mexico was paying for the wall even though I have posted a link on how Trump plans to do that.
5. We have home grown criminals so we shouldn't bother stopping those coming here illegally and committing crimes.
6. Illegal aliens pump up our economy. We need these poor, unskilled and uneducated because Americans are inferior workers and illegals pay taxes ( even though they pay far less than they cost us).
Did I miss anything? I don't have the lefty liberal play book in front of me nor the by rules of the Parrot Club in here. Feel free to add the ones I have missed as I sure there are some.
People!! You build it- they will breach it ! Remember people climb Mt Everest - they climb to the weirdest places. If a man made it, another one can undo it
So what? You must be late to the party. We've covered this many times. The intent is not to block every attempted crossing. Hundreds, and even thousands, may be able to get across it. But not hundreds of thousands.

The last one who tried to scale one of the "good" walls broke both legs trying. Next.....
