Disallow any funding, then blame the President. Typical leftist garbage.

The Trump administration has not installed a single mile of new wall in a previously fenceless part of the U.S.-Mexico border in the 30 months since President Trump assumed office, despite his campaign promise to construct a “big beautiful wall.”

Lovely straw man the author has constructed. Yet another sad angle by the MSM to chip away at or attempt to destroy Trump by any means possible.

Does she expect that Trump can just build billions of dollars of walls/fencing without funding or some of congressional authorization or support from the courts?

It is obvious to anyone with functioning eyes that President Trump would have built all of the wall by now if the various seditious losers in congress (DIM/LIBs/NeverTrumpers) weren’t such open-border/no-border, America-hating degenerates and criminals. These people are despicable traitors who resist him every possibly way. May they all rot.

I think I saw this person for the first time this past week.

She is unsightly and mean as anything looking.

Hope she is mentioned by President Trump for the lies.

“...in a previously fenceless part.”

There is the qualifier missing from the title that is necessary for the title not to be an utter and complete lie.

The fence has been as nothing as a mere strand of barbed wire lying on the ground between distance fence posts. Why would he focus first on parts where there had been not even such a demarcation?

This a prime reason we need to replace ‘never-Trump’ RINO’S in the Congress in 2020.

The ‘open-borders’ crowd is very, very powerful and they have no intentions of going down without a fight.

Getting rid of Democrat and ‘never-Trump RINO’ politicians at all levels of government has to be a major priority in 2020.

Just electing Trump in 2020 is not enough.

He has replaced a lot of the ineffectual “wall” in high-traffic areas. Exactly the way it should be done before new wall construction.

Julius Caesar and his engineers came up with an ingenious series of defenses during his siege of the city of Alesia. They built palisades, towers, ditches, moats, trenches filled with caltrops and barbs, and berms embedded with the sharpened boughs of felled trees facing out.

If we get a wall, we get a wall. But I think things like Caesar’s works placed strategically along the border would be as effective. The British built a natural “hedge line” across India in the 1800’s that turned out to be an effective barrier. Something of the sort could also be employed.

That is a absolute lie.

Lies like this should be banned from FR.

Since the old fence wasn’t really a fence but just a bunch of junk you can walk right past, the difference is unimportant.

The administration makes excuses but end of day zero new miles. There is funding but 30 months in they are still getting ready to start. Sounds like Obama’s shovel ready projects. Why is Trump repeating the same?

If so, and I suspect it is, disappointing performance. Very disappointing for all the drama surrounding it to this point.
