No idea, but I will say that the longer it takes to get it through Congress, the lower the chances are it will be done at all.

President Trump has his maximum momentum in the first six months of his Presidency, in terms of public support, political capital, and political will. After that, too many things crop up as distractions and/or excuses not to deliver.

Midterm elections, war, money, etc., all tend to be barriers to progress.

Exactly. Strike while you can or the wall proposal will die of a 1,000 cuts.

Disagree, the final design has not been selected. There are some VERY Good proposals.

Why not use the Wall as a negotiating lever until you are ready to break ground and collect monies from Mexico to cover the cost?
