Make it thicker, reinforced with rebar and brimming with electronic security features (like the primo Israeli Border Security WALL has) and you’re good to go.

Bottom line: Most Freepers fell for the MSM’s line of bovine waste.

LMAO!

That’s great but guess who’s paying for it? It’s not Mexico.

I don't give a damn who pays for it as long as something is getting done. Anyone whining about that is just looking for something to whine about.

Can't we get a line of razor blades along the top edge?

Would you settle for rolls of barbed wire?

Don’t you remember when candidate Trump would fire up the crowds with repeated promises to “Continue Obama-era improvements to no more than 40 miles of fencing and levy barriers”.

Those were exciting times.

That door swings both ways.

If the rules are the same, but they are not.

US->Mehico -> run away under Ø. Under Trump???

Mehico->US -> rocks, bullets, trash, all OK

I think the wall will look different in different places. There is no one design that would suit every situation.

Too funny!

I WANT him to succeed desperately but not willing to trade in my principles and turn a blind eye to things being conveyed that aren’t actually being done. And to see folks not critically think these things through and research is mind boggling!

It’s no different than what we complained about with Obama zombies blindly following and overlooking anything of discomfort.
I’m starting to believe Trump when he said he could shoot someone in broad daylight in NYC and he’d still have his followers

Was that before or after he would say that the illegal and unconstitutional DACA would continue and illegal aliens given permits under it could rest easy?

Who’s whining? It’s about holding Trump to his oft repeated promise of Mexico paying for the wall that I repeatedly challenged at the time with much opposition, but little rationale, on FR.

All obstacles to be effective MUST be covered by observation or fire. (Read: Fire meaning small arms, mines, artillery, etc.)

If you’re not happy with the wall being built, you’re a Never Trump dim wit just looking for something bellyache about. The wall will pay for itself.

“Sorry folks you’ve been played”

Worthy of repeat.

Mulvaney shows himself to be a liar.

“That’s great but guess who’s paying for it? It’s not Mexico.”

Mexico started paying for the wall when Trump convinced Carrier to keep most of it’s production in the U.S. Each time a factory keeps production here, Mehico is paying.

Comprende?

So true. Trump and company also totally caved on DACA. Illegals on the program can stay and NEW permits are being issued. The program continues, full speed ahead.

Basically we are getting what we would have gotten under a Jeb Bush administration, some good judicial appointments, uniparty policies everywhere else.

People who would’ve headed north but have changed their minds are now burdening the Mexican economy; not ours.

Mexico’s problem children who would’ve sought wealthier prospects northward are staying put and burdening Mexican ‘law enforcement’ (to the extent that it is rumored to exist, anyway).

Abandoned Moms with hungry mouths to feed are staying put in Mexico instead of dragging their sucklings north to get stuffed on American WIC, Section 8, Welfare, and a host of other Federal and State benefits.

Trump hasn’t yet addressed any potential alterations to U.S. Foreign Aid to Mexico. I’d expect that conversation to be an integral feature of the Mexican Presidente’s visit to the White House once he accepts Trump’s invitation.

Mexico IS PAYING NOW for this wall, and WILL CONTINUE TO PAY in the future for this wall.

Contentions to the contrary are indicative of a shallow analysis that fails to encompass — or just ignores outright — the full panoply of economic inputs to the funding equation. That’s a false DNC/MSM narrative being spoon-fed to the American Idle; don’t get suckered into believing it.
