But fences don’t work, right? That’s what the Demscum keep telling us. Then why did the DNC Demscum use one? See https://www.google.com/amp/s/observer.com/2016/07/well-build-a-wall-and-well-get-philadelphia-to-pay-for-it/amp/

President Trump. Hold firm. You are on the right side. Most Americans will not side with 800,000 overpaid government bureaucrats.

The wall is worthless without support. That support is political, financial, technical, manpower, maintenance, and control of entry etc. It also includes massive reform of immigration and voting systems.

In addition, 61 percent overall say U.S. border security is inadequate; 84 percent of Republicans,

Notice 16% of Republicans think border security is adequate. That is the Cheap Labor Express wing of the Republican Party.

To be clear, I know you’re on our side. May have not been fully clear in my prior comment. The substance of the comment was not directed at you, but rather directed to the Demscum and an effort to help Freepers have another resource to help expose the Demscum’s hypocrisy.

"Roughly 80% of all voters say U.S. needs secure borders, including 68% of Democrats [emphasis added]: Harvard poll"

Regarding Trump’s much needed wall, anti-Trump Democrats and RINOs are forcing taxation without representation upon the voters.

Hopefully at least some of thoese 68% of Dems will wake up and realize their masters don’t care what they think.

The Democrats will attempt to convince American voters that securing the borders can be achieved by granting citizenship to all incoming illegal immigrants, no wall required. It won’t work, but that will be their talking point.

"...eight out of 10 of all U.S. voters — 79 percent — say the U.S. needs secure borders; 93 percent of Republicans, 80 percent of independents and 68 percent of Democrats agree with that."

As usual, it appears the Democrats are listening to the radical, lunatic, activist fringe of their base, instead of the majority.

Not sure how accurate this ended up being. This poll was taken a year ago. And voters still elected a Democrat house despite knowing that party favors open borders.

Was it an honest vote, or was that the result of vote fraud?

99% of Americans wanting border security would not be enough for the tone deaf Pelosi and Schumer. The ONLY thing they are interested in is getting their hands on more illiterate uneducated filthy slobs they can teach to pull the D lever during elections. That these troglodytes cost the rest of us billions to keep them in the style they’ve become accustomed to is of no importance to these two and their dummocrap minions. And their repub two faced allies.

The only problem with this survey is it’s TOO GENERAL.

Let’s get to the specific question:

DO YOU SUPPORT BUILDING A BORDER WALL TO SECURE OUR BORDERS?

YES/NO

That means the Democratic Crime Syndicate will fight to totally erase the border. After all they always go against the citizenry.

The findings reveal, for example, that eight out of 10 of all U.S. voters — 79 percent — say the U.S. needs secure borders; 93 percent of Republicans, 80 percent of independents and 68 percent of Democrats agree with that.

Another 79 percent of voters overall say immigration priorities should be granted on a person’s “ability to contribute to America”; 87 percent of Republicans, 79 percent of independents and 72 percent of Democrats agree.

Translation:

President Trump cannot lose the Govt Shutdown issue, if and only if...

(1) He frequently and carefully and diplomatically presents the issue, and...

(2) He stays strong (strong).
