However, there is a slight change in plans. The team told GOP officials the real estate mogul had signaled that the building of the wall be funded by American tax dollars and not…

    I don’t think anyone, including trump himself, took him seriously with that “Mexico will pay for it” crap. Except some of his beloved “poorly educated” supporters.

    We can’t fund infrastructure under a Republican-led Congress but they sure can find taxpayer funds to approve Trump’s Wall of Shame.

      Think about how much GOOD that money would do if they used it to fund Planned Parenthood ?

    If the wall is ever built it will be an environmental boondoggle, over budget, behind schedule, fraught with litigation, and probably built using Mexican labor and materials … owned by an American corporation.

      Don’t worry, Congressional Debating, cost estimating, environmental impact statements, right of way procuring, contract letting, building permits, bid processes. and material estimating by the Government will take at least SIX Years. Trump will be gone by then or WE will be.

    And with billionaires slated to get another massive tax cut, I guess the completely unnecessary tax burden of trump’s vanity wall will fall disproportionately on – us!

    Here is what drives me crazy about conservatives:

    They have already forgotten that Trump promised Mexico would pay for the wall.

    Now, we all have to pay for a three-trillion dollar wall. And we Blue States will pay for most of it.

    • fahvel January 6th, 2017 at 11:54

      don’t pay!!!! it’s called a revolutionary step.

    • The Original Just Me January 6th, 2017 at 23:47

      For all states except , Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California, it would be ” Taxation without Wall Building “.

    I scanned down and I don’t see any of the rwnj’s here making any comments, I wonder why they are being silent? They have been happy to scream out his other lies, what happened to this lie?

      Question : Is Trump going to use Chinese Labors to build the ” Great Wall of ——- ” ?????

    • oldfart January 7th, 2017 at 11:55

      They’re waiting to receive their marching orders (AKA talking points of the day)

  11. fahvel January 6th, 2017 at 11:53

    the wall never worked for china or all the scared shitless knights in their mountain warrens. what is the purpose of this wall if not to embed more hate?

    The Pharaohs had their pyramids, so naturally Donnie wants his wall … no matter who ends up paying for it.

    • keonih1 January 6th, 2017 at 15:39

      Russia had a wall in Germany and the Romans had the Hadrian wall in England and all 3 failed!!

    If you try to talk sense to a Republican, you might just as well be talking to ” THE WALL “.

    You know, at this rate, I’m gonna find it hard to trust him anymore. And I’m pretty sure I’m not going to be able to trust him any less.
