    Lol...Now you people can put your money where your mouth is and give your great orange hope all your money so he can build his great wall if it's such a good idea.
    Or do you just like to whine about it?

    Trump is no Liberal and never was. The fact is that has no ideology and only uses a label for what it can get him at the time. He stands for nothing and self-serving and indulgence is what he is all about.

    The sad part of this report is that those that truly want the Trump border wall do not even know what a wall like Donald Trump wants even really costs.

    The 5 billion Trump was seeking for his wall was not payment in full for the full project.

    the 5 billion was an earmark in itself...money to be used any way he would choose for ..."The Wall".

    That is not the way the Federal government funds big projects. We, ...America, has no real plan. No survey. No impact studies. No Corps of Engineer blue prints or Cost analysis.

    This is the main reason that the GOP leadership in Congress did not want to begin throwing money at Trump's wall because it is becoming a money pit.

    Trump wants to operate his wall like he operates all other projects Trump Inc. does... open-ended with no oversight and no accountability.

    What's wrong with some right-winger wanting to collect donations to build trump's wall?
    As long as they don't use the money as a slush fund to enrich themselves and their families, I say let them waste your money.

    I don't have a problem with it. Someone should be honest and call it a "fence" though.

    Like what?

    This site does nothing but gripe about a single appropriation for a museum in Charleston.

    Earmarks as a procedure were discontinued in 2006.

    But this is a Trumpster site. And the folks who run it know that their audience wouldn't know that.

    Trump made a real fool of himself that day!

    Now he's rolling over and giving in on the big shiny object that was the talisman of his race baiting and mexihate campaign.

    From antiquity to the present day, walls have never really served their purpose for external protection .... at best temporarily favoring "defense".
    I have no idea why the advocates of a wall to Mexico do not turn on the brain. First, there is where it makes sense already a wall, or to overcome a hefitger fence like a prison. On the other hand, it makes no sense to build a wall anywhere in the deserted area of the border area, because there are far more useful measures to identify illegal immigrants and drug smugglers!

    Are you saying experts are wrong in the fact that Walls deter people? Did you know that when China built the great Wall. That they didn't think it would stop people from getting in. But that they did think it would stop Hordes of People from just rushing in and killing them.

    Hmmmm lets see.....minority of people getting in as opposed to Majorities getting in. But walls don't work Right? :laughing:

    Hmmm ... lets take a look how good the Chinese Wall worked at least?
    Has only brought temprären protection, because countless times overcome and broke ... the Mongols held, eh? .... and the watch and the costs have finally toppled the dynasty of the emperor!

    Shall I do that now with the other big walls of history, like Hadrian's Wall of the Romans in the UK?

    They "deter" people who don't really want to get to the other side. But why are you talking about a wall? We are really talking about a fence.

    Actually, walls have worked well, especially in antiquity when it came to keeping people out. Why do you think they built castles?

    But this isn't antiquity and times have changed greatly and so as the purpose of securing our border. Walls, fences, cameras, patrols, drones, etc are all part of border security. It's a combination of all of these things that make the border more secure and keep out illegals crossing into our country. A wall is a necessary part of this.
