Hope that most, if not all, are American companies with American labor ONLY.

Plus, they’re going to have to retain some people to take care of the protesters and trouble makers. I know of a couple families who are quite effective.

The Trump people know how to contact us.

Give each one of these companies a section of the wall to build simultaneously and get the darned thing built quickly. The problem would be getting massive amounts of concrete and American rebar,I-beams, etc. to the sites in a timely manner. The mobile home, RV folks will have to get cranked up too, to house the crews.

Oh, we can hire non-citizens to help. They just have to do their work from the other side... :)

I have confidence this will not end up like Ted Kennedy’s Boston tunnel boondoggle. We will see a Trump administration that understands project delivery methods and will get this done the right way.

If precedent holds a liberal boycott would be welcome and cause their stocks to soar. New small businesses will likely start calling for liberal boycotts to get their companies up and running. Liberals seem to be perfecting the Art of the Backfire.
