I’m about to say make your blasted wall - make the base happy put the USA in zillions in debt and in 5/6 yrs the next generation will tear it down - or some nat disaster will knock it down. Sometime just gotta let them fail.
The cost of the wall would equal ~0.09% of the total Federal Budget for 2019. i.e. It's going to have practically 0 effect on the budget.
Just goes to show how much government is really "non essential".
20 days now and the lights are still on...
You’re free to believe what you want, but that doesn’t change reality.
You should be thankful that people like those in the Coast Guard are still loyal to the country despite going unpaid; they’re hardly “non-essential” - even if by title.
Why should any president fund a federal project out of their own pockets? This is the government's responsibility. Why didn't congress fund it and build it back in 2006 like they promised? There was no plan to make Mexico pay for it back then. Were you and yours crying back then? Thought not!
800,000 federal employees lives will not be destroyed. Cut the melodramatics for Christ's sake!
Although if I had the choice to destroy that many lives I'd certainly choose that over destroying the over 320 million American lives in this country from having an unsecured border, duh.
We can help all those needy Americans while not having to sacrifice our national security. Just more melodramatics by you. It's not a useless project. The good walls have already proven to work. Did you tell congress back in 2006 that approved the actual wall bill that it was a useless project? Thought not!
You know these govt employees and what they are facing ?? Please do not minimize their plight while you overstate the necessity of this wall.

Its not the money. Its how he goes about getting the money, people have a problem with. Shut down the gov. to get his wall money. He wants his money, while others receive no paychecks. Declare a national emergency to get the money. There is no national emergency. Now he wants to us disaster relief money for the Cali. fire disaster. What a guy.
It doesn’t matter who covered it the fact is that Trump saw the tunnels in his pride he’s too stupid to admit as much.
... is the argument that tunnels; which are a lot of trouble to dig, and provide very limited and temporary illegal access, are a good reason to have a wide open border with no barrier at all. Why is this stupid argument still made?

I am so thankful that she didn't win.
