No wall funding

Yes
Everyone was too cowardly to ask.
If the wall isn’t partially funded and significant construction started by a year from now, Trump will not be re-elected.
And in a related story...

Hmmm? Where could we possibly find the money to build a wall?

US pledges $10.6B aid for Central America, southern Mexico

Correct.
If he doesn’t get that damn wall built substantially he is toast. No two ways about it - it is the issue that won him the election.
I don’t want to hear ‘but Congress’ ‘but the democrats’ - he could shut it down. There is no reason for him not to do that. He is being outsmarted and outmaneuvered.
If he thinks he is going to win reelection based on tax cuts and conservative economics he can just lose (McCain / Romney) and I wont give a crap.
Without a wall and a massive change in immigration policy- America is finished and conservative governance will never happen again.
I'm saddened to say; Definitely a turning point if the wall doesn't get funded.
Chuckie and Nasty are rejoicing.
Is Trump supposed to invent the funding from Congress?
He can’t coerce Congress to give him the funding.
Ryan and McConnell are the azzholes here.
““We have other ways that we can get to that $5 billion” and will “work with Congress” to do so, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told Fox News on Tuesday morning. She added that the Trump administration could support $1.6 billion in border security funding proposed by Senate Democrats, as long as it can “couple that with other funding resources” to get to $5 billion.”
Yep. This was a sh!t sandwich day.
Definitely a turning point if the wall doesn’t get funded
You can’t tell me that the president has given up his role/right/responsibility in defending the US from invasion to some stupid Congressional wrangle.
Certainly it sounds like he’s going to try it.
Democrats lose elections but still win. (thanks to their “reach-across-the-aisle” “friends.”)
Yeah let’s elect a Democrat to the WH...then we can have a real Autobon connecting Mexico to the US.
The Establishment and Leftists are to blame, not Trump.
Rino’s want Open Borders.
All it would take is the political will to tax remittances to Mexico, and use his position as Commander in Chief to order the military to do the building (since they are being paid no matter what duties they are performing).
Apparently the state department has $8B bucks just laying around to give away to 3rd world countries.
