    In 5 hours it doubled?? LOL...you do exaggerate so. No matter as this money isn't going to be used towards building the wall.

    I'm not going to bother. Do your own search, don't be lazy. You really think its difficult? Sad.

    The default position of a few RWers on here. They can't back up their assertion, so they declare you to be "lazy" if you don't want to research it. LOL

    How can you stop them from dedicating it to the wall? They have passed the 14 million dollar mark. We know it has pissed off Democrats.

    Any money donated to the government will have to go to the Treasury where the only thing it can be used for is to pay down the debt. I've provided a link to that already and a few posters have told you the same but you refuse to understand it. That isn't my problem.

    I have been dealing with an A- hat over Vietnam so have not seen what you are telling me there is.

    Republicans should be able to get a change made so the funding goes to the wall. We want the wall. Safe to say you want to resist it.

    The Vietnam war is over decades ago. I posted my link yesterday. Perhaps you need to get some sleep to clear your head.

    I'm telling you a fact and the fact is this money can't be used toward a wall. Trump can't even get his party to pass a bill for the wall.

    You have to keep in mind all these waterways you want hardened are private property.

    Those same pylons and cables would be keeping farmers and ranchers from their water source.

    And you do the same, assure yourself you are correct and keep cheering for the "fundamental" transformation of America, hope for change and whatnot.

    Hard to give big when criminal aliens have taken your job.

    You're right, they should jump on entitlements and pay with that instead.

    Maybe Laura Inghram, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coutler finally see the writing on the wall. [no pun intended]

    Donald Trump's first half of term one has garnered no major legislation other than the GOP sponsored tax giveaway.

    Trump has not sealed the deal on one of his major projects.

    Next half we will have Democrat House and Mueller's white paper

    In six months we will look back nostalgically at border walls.

    The problem is ....as Joe Q Public wanting to drop off a check to the federal government for "the Wall", there are not too many options to do that.

    It must be heartbreaking seeing President Trump give billions in tax cuts to corporations at the time of their record profits...and when Trump needs help, his own party and the rich folk they represent turn their backs on him.

    Once again it's left to the little guy like yourself to bail out the country while the fat cats in government and business dine on steak and Lobster.

    If your "dear leaders" did not make it so, Government could work like it needed to. Your rich "leaders" are nothing more than parasites.

    What I'm seeing in this thread are liberals who will come up with just about any reason they can which will prevent us from having border security. They say they're against a wall and would prefer a fence, so Trump comes up with a fence-like design which is similar to what was installed in NM and El Paso under Bush and Obama and now the left is against that.

    The left, the same people who were against illegals when both Clintons and Obama were against them, are now in favor of open borders. The people on the left changed their positions 180 degrees for no other reason than they were told to.

    Uh...,funny how you flip/flopped. How can you claim the Dems are for open borders when you just admitted that both Clinton and Obama was for border security? Try to be consistent.
