				 | Assuming Biden keeps his beach house for the rest of his life, it’s probably quite cost effective compared to the Secret Service guarding without it.
 Still 140 million short of what we spent for TFG’s weekends playing golf.

 |  Right!  because having untold millions and millions of illegals in the country, doesn’t cost us a dime. 
 
They don’t take any welfare or require any public services, don’t have a single kid in school 
among all of them, they don’t require housing, food, healthcare, police protection, social services, nothing.  Nope.  Doesn’t cost a cent.

This extended protection was triggered by a highly unusual order Trump made near the end of his presidency, according to the Washington Post. The order was to offer an additional six months of protection to Ivanka Trump and Kushner, who also was a White House senior adviser.
 
The order also covered extended protection to Ivanka’s three adult siblings, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and Tiffany Trump, and to three top administration officials, costing  $1.7 million through July.

				 | Mar-a-Lago Gets $600,000 Security Upgrade on Taxpayers’ Dime
 Security for Trump’s Mar-a-Lago visits cost local taxpayers $13 million
 
 One presumes, then, that guests will overlook the nearly 50-foot-wide dirt pit and bright orange construction posts on the west lawn of Mar-a-Lago, where the New York Post reports a helipad is being built for Marine One. It’s a fiscally responsible choice for the president, who bills taxpayers approximately $700,000 in flight costs alone every time he takes Air Force One down to South Florida. Marine One, which has much lower operating costs, is a bargain by comparison.

 |  No, YOU are flip flopping.  This thread is about whether or not walls are a reasonable security feature, or whether they are necessarily racist.  And you "flip flopped", in your language, to Trump.

Jim the Fox News article you posted  doesn’t even mention immigration 
 
But you did  once again comparing a wall around a house and a wall around our nation as somehow being the same .  Shocking 
 
PS Biden didn’t ask for a wall he’s the POTUS his security demands it
