Trump’s Border Wall Could Waste Billions of Dollars, Report Says
New York (sniff, sniff) Times ^ | 4 hours ago | Ron Nixon

Posted on 08/06/2018 5:55:38 PM PDT by cba123

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration could potentially waste billions of dollars on a border wall because it failed to fully account for factors like varying terrain and land ownership along the Southwest border, according to a new report.

(whaah)

The report, conducted by the Government Accountability Office, found that Customs and Border Protection, the agency responsible for construction of the wall, did not consider the cost of building along each segment of the border, which can vary depending on factors such as topography and land ownership.

(whaah)

(for more whaah, please link to the full leftist NYT article)

Or just read this, and don't go there.

:D

“Could”. And, how much does it cost us taxpayers to provide benefits to all these trespassers again? Oh, more than a wall “could” waste. Grrrrrrrr!

Please sir, a few feet taller. Thank you.

Talk to Israel about border walls and what it stops.

How many billions are being wasted on illegals every year and how many billions or trillions were wasted up to now?

Would simply mining a no-man’s land be cheaper?

So why would they be against spending it if it were a waste of money? They waste money all of the time.

The NYT forgot to include that its newest, white-guy-hating, dog-eating Korean racist female objects - to everything!!!

Oink! Oink! (Recorded as she seeks out a bathroom with the appropriate gender sign “Er! Um!” that she can use.)

A total “crock” article. The savings from not having to educate the illegals, less people on the dole, less medical care, etc. etc. would save enough to pay for a new wall yearly.
