My bet is he will build it for a fraction of the cost.

"“He can go right to a favored source to build a fence.”"

This resident gasbag must have forgotten how President Trump came down on boeing to save taxpayers a 1.4 billion measly bucks for the next generation air force one.

He already has a least one contractor working on it. I don’t see a problem with sole-sourcing it at this point. Either they are satisfied with the work being done, or they’re not. There’s a lot to be said for a contractor who has already moved down the learning curve.

Crank up the steel plants. Trump changed the playing field early on for steel manufacturing in the US. He is way ahead of this critics.

It will probably cost him less than the train to nowhere—and he will actually build it.

It should be built by Texas companies. We deserve it. Texas has sprent billions during three years of policing the border. Billions more have been spent on educating millions of illegal children and the anchor babies of illegal aliens and providing healthcare to illegal families.

There you go, ‘the enemy of our nation’ the Washington Post looking for any way possible to cast this as a scandal.

“He can go right to a favored source to build a fence.” ...

Because an independently-wealthy multi-billionaire president who takes no salary and has virtually no “insider” political cronies is beholden to so many...

If he can find a company owned by Russia and Mexico to build wall he would cause a massive meltdown.

Hey! Donors pay a lot of money to get “competitive” bids rigged to their favor!
Seems to me Congresses RINOs and Dems should offer “Trump rebates” to their donors...

I believe five companies were already awarded contracts and built their first sample prototypes. They have a unit cost price and each, one or all can be awarded different sections without any real delay.

They would mobilize in various sites in about ten to thirty days and initial preparatory work could then begin. Utility prep, site prep, grading, soils borings and the like can be underway at once.

I still think they should conscript illegals for the labor.

Give them 3 squares and a cot. 8 hours a day 6 days a week. On Sunday give them a choice of attending a serve conducted by a Baptist Minister or Catholic Priest. Pay them $800 a month. When the wall is finished give them a bus or plane ticket back to their village.

Any little kids that are detained with “Parents”should be adopted out.
