It's a simple question, really.

Because fuck you.

Also, if Mexico isn’t going to pay for the wall does that mean Americans don’t get what they voted for? Americans didn’t vote on who should pay for a wall, they voted for a wall. The president is fighting for one. Where’s the confusion?

“Yeah but he said Mexico would pay!”

“We don’t care. Get it built.”

“But ... But ... he said Mexico would pay!!!”

“No one cares, get it built”

“BUT HE SAID MEXICO!!!”

“What are you, a fucking child? Get it built”

Because you all bitches seized on paid for as direct payment when you know he meant something else entirely.

Renegotiating NAFTA is Mexico paying for the wall.

Cutting down and properly taxing remittances is Mexico paying for the wall.

Denying Mexico the pressure valve to release undesirables staving off much needed reform is Mexico paying for the wall.

That GOP backpedaling bullshit doesn’t fly either. If the trade renegotiations pay for the wall then go build it, motherfucker. Guess you have your money already.

Look, a politician lied. Woop-woop. The end. Now get the wall built.

Obama said if I liked my doctor I could keep my doctor. I couldn't. Why did he lie?

The deal hasn't been signed yet. And without congressional authorization it is a non starter. Right now, politically, which would I rather have? The issue or the wall. Trump is clearly choosing to have the issue, what are you going to do? Vote for the open border Democrat?

Mexico isn't paying for the wall because the Swamp Elites don't want a Wall. They want to send $150 Billion to that enlightened regime of humanity called Iran, but they don't want border security.

The American people voted for a wall.

The Democrats have a gotcha point on Trump saying Mexico would pay for it.

The GOP would rather argue the specifics of the gotcha point than build a wall.

The Americans are still waiting.

Pretty Accurate.
We all know the entrenched GOP and Dems are getting paid bank to keep the flow of cheap labor flowing. Lets stop with the bullshittery.

The average American knows having open borders is damaging to American workers and families and the politicians that are bought off don't give AF about you. That's the current status quo. We don't want the status quo anymore.

Shut down empire operations everywhere and reallocate those defense funds to the wall.
