Punked: Great Speech

People with common sense in economics understand that any U.S. dollars that are not expatriated to Mexico, or other foreign country, but rather kept in the United States and spent in the United States is Mexican, et al, money repatriated to the U.S. that would have been spent elsewhere otherwise. So, yeah, Mexico -- through denial of the cash transfers into its coffers -- is paying for it, and with the El Cahpo Act in Congress, doubly so. Originally Posted by I B Hankering

That is the craziest attempt to explain Mexico is paying for the wall that I've ever heard. If I don't send $100 to a family in Nicaragua I'm paying for the wall? Ridiculous!

Mexico is Building a Wall!!! And El Chappo is paying for it!!!!

Trump told Nancy to shove it when he walked out of the room and refused to entertain her bullshit.




So I present 6 people who disagree with you and you dismiss them all. Yet you presented no one to support your statements.

Typical.

A few years ago,another radical,off the wall leader, was having a difficult time convincing his people to fund the isolation of the Jews that were the cause of all their economic and social downfalls he too had to declare a national emergency in order to fulfill his tantrum!

Little chucky and drunk pelosi had their spin; it failed BUTTT wait !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The dirt poor families in Mexico would benefit.

What I can plainly see is that Odumbo and hildebeest have fucking walls to keep out trespassers, and you hysterically can't accept the fact that dim-retards you venerate are hiding behind walls as they hypocritically and falsely claim walls don't work.

Maybe you should take a glance at all the Jersey barriers Odumbo has on public streets blocking access to a residential neighborhood. Originally Posted by I B Hankering

You turned the discussion from any person sending money out of the country to illegal immigrants who do not pay taxes sending money out of the country. Post #89. Totally different argument.

It is obviously NOT a wall to keep people out if they want in. A 10 foot ladder and I'm in if I want to be. It is just an inconvenience to people who might come onto the property if it wasn't there. The wall Trump wants is 18-30 feet high, thick concrete at the base, 5 feet of which is underground with technology to detect people trying to tunnel under it.

I have a 6-foot fence in my backyard. It's called a "privacy fence". No intent to keep people out.

IB is on to something . Some just don't get it..
Any issue about illegal immigrants IS connected to the crisis on the border ! And the fix to that crisis IS the wall!

Trump said:

"One thing that I do have to say is: Tremendous amounts of wall have already been built, and a lot of — a lot of wall. When you include the renovation of existing fences and walls, we've renovated a tremendous amount and we've done a lot of work. In San Diego, we're building new walls right now. And we've — right next to San Diego, we've completed a major section of wall and it's really worked well."


In a tweet before the Oval Office meeting with Trump said:

"People do not yet realize how much of the Wall, including really effective renovation, has already been built. If the Democrats do not give us the votes to secure our Country, the Military will build the remaining sections of the Wall. They know how important it is!"


On March 30, he told a rally in Ohio that “you saw those beautiful pictures. … We started building our wall. I’m so proud of it. We started. We started. We have $1.6 billion, and we’ve already started.”
