Raise $21 billion in 30 days? :-)
It would indeed be an interesting exercise to see how much support there actually is for a wall (or lack of support). Why don't you start it?
If every American citizen pitched in just $10, let me do the math, oh crap.
Better to do like march of dimes- get the youngers involved
Set up a PAC or a non-profit and plaster social media with a paypal link.
I can’t start it. It would need to be the whitehouse as they’d need to be the steward of the spending. As for those who say Congress should fund it....I think at this point most, on this topic, most of us say to hell with Congress and stop the delay.
There is no Go Fund Me page for the Trump Wall because NONE IS ALLOWED! They tried to set one up, and it was taken down by the company.
Seriously, someone with power here need to be able to pitch this idea to the whitehouse.
Then the Whitehouse can open their own non profit and website to get the funding,. Go fund me or whatever....
We don’t need no thought control. /s
The U.S. Constitution says (Article I, section 9, clause 7) that "No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law."
Yeah that makes sense. I doubt Congress will ever completely fund the wall. Thus a GoFundMe would be an interesting exercise to see how much interest there is out there for building a wall. Let people put their money where their mouth is so to speak.
Has anyone thought this through??
90% of ALL the Controlled Substances not available by prescription enter the United States from our Southern Border.
75% of every law enforcement agency in the country are employed as a direct result of the War on Drugs
75% plus of ALL criminal cases are Drug Related.
We have Millions and Millions of Government employee union members employed as a direct result of the War on Drugs
Thousands and Thousands of Judges, Clerks, Court Houses, Prisons, Prison Guards, Lawyers,Probation and Parole Officers, Hundreds of thousands of Tax payer funded Drug Programs.... ALL will disappear overnight
If we Build the Wall, what happens to all the Millions of Drug Warriors across this country?? What type of work will they do if we win the War on Drugs by building a Wall?? What about the $50Billion in Tax Dollars, will we get that back? DO you think we will just abolish the DEA??
Remember the War on Drugs Started with Henry Anslinger after prohibition was ended and he was about to be an unemployed Prohibition Enforcer for the US Gubmint
The Wall will NOT be built, there is No Way in Hell we will end the War on Drugs by winning, there is way too much money involved here.
ps My wife has a green card, I am in SoCal and I not only want the wall built, I want every last Illegal ALien deported yesterday.
GFM to help our troops yes - building wall NO.
Tax the remittances to pay for the wall.
Or a Kick starter, and for premiums you’d get lawn work done by illegals on their way back home.
Good idea.
Send the idea to White House . Gov/ contact
The Mexican government and the drug cartels would steal the gold bricks. Much like the gold spike that connected the cross country railroad.
$2415.00 so far

How do we know it is legit?
I wish Franklin Graham would run it so we could donate with confidence that the money would for sure go to the cause…
