Trumps Wall

[sumdumguy]

If the 63 million Americans that voted for Trump chipped in $80 each, Trump has the money for the wall. How about Go Fund Me?

So does this mean Americans finally realized that Mexico isn't going to pay for the wall?

I wouldn't count that out just yet. Maybe not formally the government, but Mexicans at border crossings is definitely possibility as a per head tax.

350 million people cross the southern border every year. At $100 a head, a border wall pays for itself in one year.

Congress approved the $5.6B for the wall today.

Meaningless because they do not have the votes in the Senate to pass this.

I thought they had majority 53 to 47? Or are some of the 53 lame ducks.

spending bill requires 60 votes to pass. Numbers you quote are for seats before midterm votes. The increase R numbers in Senate does not occur until in January. Not all R are in favor of funding the wall and all democrats say they are opposed. Finally, a number of Senators have already left Washington for the holidays therefore, anyway you count this, there is not the votes in the Senate to pass wall funding at this time.

The wall is a diversion from the real issues trump wants to deal with.
Like giving the Middle East to the Russians
Like sacrificing Israel
Like money from the Saudis

The more he makes the wall an outrageous and talked about event the less people spend on the real issues.

Want a wall build a *** wall so what. But it's all the hype around it that takes the focus off the trump family corruption.

You still don't understand that Trump voters don't give a shit what happens with those places. It's all about America first baby! The rest of the world wants to **** and kill each other, go right ahead. #notyour****ingbabysitteranymore.

Even if Russia invaded Ukraine and started WW3, no Trump supporter expects the US to get involved. Whereas Canada, you know would send boatloads of your kids and grandkids to their death.

Oh, disagree.

The Trump family cares if their revenue stream dries up.

Wheels has it right, and WWIII will be over so quick that the US won't have to be dragged in kicking and screaming years later.

WWIII will be fought like a video game.....

Bigzee, try to have a little more depth than CNN.

Syrian commitment was 3 months, its now 7 yrs later after 12 in in Iraq and 18 in Afghanistan. Know what, they are still shit holes and ALWAYS will be. US gets blamed one way or another. They hate us cause we are there, they hate cause we left. These people are so *** lost in their religion and tribalism they are beyond help.

Let Russia have it, in a few yrs they will be coming home broke.


I sympathize with Israel but they choose to live there. That has consequences. A billion people hate 15 million people. I don't know how you ever have security with that. Best security is to have 2 oceans on either side of you and a kick ass navy. A get a lawn chair and watch the fireworks.

Watch some zeihen. Russians influence is self limiting due to economy and demographics. China will implode, all we have to do is turn the economic knobs a bit. EU is over, aged out, no kids, foreign populations. Africa remains shithole central and will be forever. Only one country to put your chips on. Why would the US have an interest in keeping order in lawless places.

US already has this game won. If the ever need more land they can take over Canada without firing a shot.
