I don't see why he doesn't just ask for donations from his billionaire friends, who were happy to contribute multi-millions to his campaign. I know of one very rich person who voted for him, who could also chip in.

I see no problem with us paying. Obama gave $150 billion to Iran, which I'm sure they used to buy more terrorism, so Trump can use a few billion to build a wall.

He will build the wall. The Man is into real estate, a wall is easy to build compared to a Manhattan Hotel

The real question is who will pay for the wall.
My guess is it will be a 50-50.

US will pay 50% directly, Mexico will pay 50% indirectly [Increased Tariffs, Increased Visa Fees for Mexicans etc].

And both governments will claim that neither of them paid for it to ensure their loyalists are happy. That is politics for you.

IMHO, a Wall is unnecessary. Better policing of the border will do the trick. No wall can prevent a network of tunnels in the future.

True that. Not sure of the logic behind getting Mexicans to pay for it. There's nothing in it for them.

Those who want to build walls have a plan to keep people in.

That the wall is built or not is irrelevant. The ill intent here is creating the divide around the wall, people feeling threatened or bold, ripping each other, part of a subsequent series of aggressively divisive attacks. The psychological wall is the target, the mass mental rape, a crime against humanity.

This time it will not succeed.

People can leave the United States anytime. It's not a wall to keep us in. The wall is to keep drugs out of our country. A country with no borders is not a country at all. Had Trump reneged on his promise to build the wall, the left would have crucified him. But now the left complains about him being an honest politician and keeping his word. He will do exactly what he was elected to do, and he will be reelected in 2020.

The GOP authorized $12 to $15 billion with construction to start no later than September.

He reiterates the taxpayers will front the money. So, hows this work when he promises to cut taxpayer income tax and corporate taxes?
Something smells off here.

If Obama can spend our tax dollars paying $150 billion to Iran, I think we can affird a $15 billion dollar wall.

Only American Workers will build the wall, in a way it is an "infrastructure stimulus".
But it will not work. Cartels will use Drones to ferry drugs, or subterranean networks or diplomatic channels or manufacture drugs on US Soil [ "Breaking Bad" on Steroids]. Demand always creates supply.

So to win the battle against drugs, the Youth must discover Spirituality within, and reject the temptation to use drugs.

One Tweet from POTUS that not taking drugs helped him become the US President will cut down demand by 50% at least from Trump supporters. Trump needs a "Walk In" pretty soon.

Apples and oranges much? This isn't a wall dividing two halves of America. And Mexico already has a wall on it's own southern border.

Thanks for telling me your opinion.I still don't know what to think.

Sometimes I think is good sometimes I think is bad.Many people die trying to cross the border,many are raped.If you are too tired to walk and get sick the coyots leaves you behind and you die.I think if gets extremelly difficult to enter many people will eventually stop trying illegally and coyots will lose their "jobs".What I don't like is the hate spread this caused towards people from different races.

I don't know if I'm right but this is just my opinion.

Mexico has their own wall on their southern border, as does Israel.
