Elaborate on how they’re paying for it, and do so in your own words rather than by retweeting some incoherent claim made by Trump.
whoa, now its a $5.7 billion wall.
that didn't take long to balloon.
gofundme $$$ won't even approach annual the $$$ for maintenance.
You in your thread le
That's funny, but it's a small peeve of mine when people say "Who did this?" on something they obviously did. They even watermarked it.![]()
Yeah, if I could find a better pic I would post it.
looks like there might not be the votes to pass the procedural motion to consider in the Senate.

Didn't the Dems offer $7B for border security in exchange for DACA recognition earlier this year?
Hard to imagine Trump will get a better deal now.
Art of the deal-- after receiving an offer, reject that offer, put yourself in a position of weakness and demand less when Anne Coulter unfollows you.
Dems offered 25 billion in feb/mar
asked for daca
trump said yes -deal!
then trump took it back after consulting with his head nazi!
”art of the deal”
vote held open, looks like the votes the Trump needs already checked out for the holiday. there was never a realistic chance to get to 60, tbh.
You do know there is already a wall right
I don’t think the ducks of the world do. They live in this alternative reality where we had the same illegal immigrant problem we had in 2005 and that it’s a free for all at the border.
It’s got to be bigger than anything Chyna has ever made.
And It’s got to be impressive to look at, doesn’t matter if it works.
I just find it funny how a lot of Trump supporters think a wall is original and brand new idea. It’s been there, just go to El Paso or SD.
Andat the picture Trump posted about how he strengthened that wall by installing barbed wire. No one crosses there anyway
Do you ever get tired of being so full of ?
How much of your allowance are you donating to the cause?
”But Daddehhhhhhhh could you turn off Morning Joe and give me an extra ten bucks to contribute to the border wall? I’ll rake the leaves twice this week!”
GOP had 11 chances to stop Trump before the current funding fiasco – but failed to
Here are 11 ways the GOP could have stopped Trump, according to Rubin, but opted not to.
1. They could have taken concrete action by blocking his nominees until the completion of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe. But they didn’t.
“Not a single Republican senator has committed to delaying confirmation of key Cabinet nominees until the special counsel’s report is complete,” Rubin writes.
2. Then there are his mysterious tax records, an issue from campaign season that’s never been resolved. “Not a single Republican lawmaker has committed to bipartisan legislation forcing Trump to turn over his tax records and divest himself of his businesses.”
3. None have called for his resignation or even seemed especially opposed to a second term.
“Not a single Republican member of Congress has declined to endorse him for reelection. (Do they actually think he deserves reelection, or is even fit to govern?),” she writes.
“And certainly none has called for him to resign for, if nothing else, his endemic lying and effort to defraud voters during the 2016 election (e.g., lying about pursuit of business deals with a foreign foe, hiding payments to women).”
4. There’s the President’s failure on the national disaster front. “Not a single Republican chairman has conducted an oversight hearing on the handling of Hurricane Maria,’ she writes.
5. The conflicts of interest that continue to bedevil the administration, such as: “Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross’s serial failures to disclose and divest himself of stocks posing a conflict of interest.”
6. And: “administration officials’ repeated misuse of taxpayer money on travel.”
7. And: “Jared Kushner’s and Ivanka Trump’s possible conflicts of interest.”
8. And: “Ivanka’s use of personal emails.”
9. And: “Mar-a-Lago members’ influence at the Department of Veterans Affairs.”
10. And: “Trump’s receipt of foreign emoluments.”
11. And: “White House procedures for national security clearances or dozens of other incidents involving mismanagement or corruption.”
It’s an overwhelming list of misdeeds, any one one of which might be cause for long-standing controversy in previous administrations. Yet, thanks in part to GOP inaction, the news cycle seems to lurch on without much constraint being put on the president by members of his own party.

The Repugs' only priority, or "value", is $$$ from the oligarchy to finance the Repug power grab,
plus Repugs are lessly, spinelessly scared less of Trash's base, which the Repugs have cultivated for 50 years.
SCOTUS denies request to reinstate asylum ban while it is being appealed:
I think they offered more than that.
So racist Stephen Miller/accomplices prioritize, for now, no-DACA ethnic cleansing even over the wall.
I guess they figured they'd get the $5B+ anyway, some way, so no DACA.
