Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
I read something I passing that the Senate just threw up a road block on Trump building the wall.
The more those fuckers fight against a wall, the more I want one.

Don't worry SCOTUS has your back, and when it's 6-3, they'll have it even more so. Trump Smash.

Funny how you accuse me of moving goalposts while you moved your goalpost.StCapps wrote: ↑Fri Sep 27, 2019 8:28 amThose goalposts sure moved a whole lot. First it was "there is no new wall", now it's "how dare he pay for the wall". Do you want the wall or not? Make up your mind.Speaker to Animals wrote: ↑Fri Sep 27, 2019 8:26 am
White House claims the fence will cost 8-25 million USD per mile. Which would average out to around 16.5 million per mile.
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/20 ... lion-mile/
So for 400 miles of actually new border wall (that is not funded by the dumbass bill this dumbass signed), he needs at least 6 billion dollars
The 2020 discretionary funds amount is $1.426 trillion.
It breaks down as follows:
Dept of Defense $750
HHS $89.6
Education $62.0
VA $93.1
Homeland Security $51.7
Energy Dept $31.7
HUD $37.6
State Dept $42.8
NASA $21.0
All Other Agencies $246.5
Which agency is he going to deprive of funding to build the wall?
Personally, if I were Trump, I'd take it out of Education, HUD and Defense. $6 billion ain't shit.
Where is the new wall Capps? Trump has been promising hundreds of miles of new wall since 2016.
And that's at least 6 billion for 400 miles of wall. The entire border, just under 2,000 miles, is the promise. More like 30 billion overall. No, there's not enough money in there to pull from. I agree cutting out Education would be great, but that is just not going to happen, dude. Get real. He doesn't have the discretionary funds to even realistically do the 400.

Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
The entire border isn't getting a wall. It never was, and doing so isn't even a good idea. $6 billion of $1.4 trillion ain't shit dude. 450 new miles by 2020, coming right at you, give or take a few miles.

Trumps going to appoint even more. A 2020 win, and he's going to appoint at least 2 more, and maybe even 3, for a total of 5. And he's going to have flipped every Circuit court in the country. It will be known as Trumps Judiciary for a generation.

So you admit Trump was never going to build the God damned wall. Finally.

Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
Yeah, you need wall in areas to cut down the number of miles you need to patrol and to cut off the areas that are hard to patrol.

Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
Not across the entire border, but he's going to build plenty of wall, it's just not going to be coast to coast, it will be strategically placed to work in tandem with other border security measures, and that's a good thing.Speaker to Animals wrote: ↑Fri Sep 27, 2019 8:42 amSo you admit Trump was never going to build the God damned wall.

You don't need a wall from coast to coast, it's just a visual image to sell better border security to the rubes.

Re: THE ERA OF TRUMP
So you admit he lied for years about how he is going to build a complete border wall, but you think this time he is serious about building 400 miles of actually new fencing, while admitting he has yet to build any new stretch of wall. Got it.StCapps wrote: ↑Fri Sep 27, 2019 8:43 amNot across the entire border, but he's going to build plenty of wall, it's just not going to be coast to coast, it will be strategically placed to work in tandem with other border security measures, and that's a good thing.Speaker to Animals wrote: ↑Fri Sep 27, 2019 8:42 amSo you admit Trump was never going to build the God damned wall.
