Who cares who pays for it?

because this was the focal point of the current president when he was running indicating that Mexico and nobody else but Mexico would be paying for it.

Now American consumers are having to pay for this so-called wall.

Who cares who pays for it anyway since it is well needed? Did you forget that the taxpayer funded the inferior fencing that now has to be replaced? Did you cry about that back then?

Now here's the truth!

And as I said Mexico is helping pay for it via the renegotiated NAFTA. Whatever we are putting in up front will be recouped by NAFTA. Did you miss that part of my post? And as I asked, did you and yours complain when the taxpayer funded 700 miles of flimsy fencing that now has to be replaced? Crickets...... Leftists are such hypocrites. Let's face it, you guys just hate anything that Trump does that makes him look good and many of you don't want the wall because you want the flow of illegals to continue. Usually it's because of an ethnic connection to them. Just admit it instead of bashing Trump over a wall that is well needed no matter who pays for it.
