About 2/3 of the country opposes it

Most Americans continue to oppose U.S. border wall

What, punish the job creators? No cow more sacred to the GOP than that.

Apart from that, you're right. Now, convince Trump that it was his great idea all along, get Hannity & Coulter to call him a wuss if he doesn't pass Trump-verify, and he'll be on board in seconds flat.

She is the Speaker of the House, the branch of government that controls the purse strings. If you don't like that, take it up with the founding fathers, as it's in the Constitution.

You really think it's changed very much?

Only a few days old, a vast majority still oppose:

Most Border Wall Opponents, Supporters Say Shutdown Concessions Are Unacceptable | Pew Research Center


And what is with "research" in quotations?

The people that live in border states don't think the wall is unneeded. Texas has a moat, unless there is a drought.
I built walls before I built the roof.

Yes, we do. And "unneeded" isn't the term - we think it's a nitwit idea fueled by your Dear Leader's endless vanity.
