Wouldn’t that be cruel Jeff? Somebody could be hurt. Try to understand there is a middle ground. Your side thinks this means mines apparently. My side wants a wall but nothing that could actually hurt people.

Trump tells the heads of the intel community that they are naive and should go back to school
Because they contradicts what he thinks and says publicly

But he’ll listen to a few border agents who he agrees with

See a pattern

Ps Generals and border agents do not make policy

and therein lies one of the problems. we rely in people
motivated by politics, instead of relying on actual subject matter experts who want to solve problems.


wdmso, why did a wall
work so well in san diego and in Yuma? Why is it wrong to assume that the results produced
by walls
before, can be replicated?

why do keep repeating things like work so well in san diego and in Yuma? or Black unemployment is so low talk about not seeing the big picture

its wrong because its a wall (Trumps wall ) is stunt like moving the military to the border. No ones against security along the border its about your man child who needs to understand the world does not revolve around him ...

So no take on Trump #^&#^&#^&#^&ting and his subject matter experts who want to solve problems. (intel community)

But listening to a guy who makes 50k a year and see's just what he sees where he is stationed and another guy see's something completely different where he is stationed ?? doing the same job ..

This Is why they dont make policys (big picture)

You could ask the landowners in Texas how they feel about having their land seized and not being compensated fairly unless they were astute enough to understand their rights. Build the wall sounds so simple.

If a wall worked awesome in San Diego and Yuma, is that not reason to assume it would work elsewhere? If not, why not?

WALLS WORK.

DUH.

If you assume they wouldn't be compensated fairly, I agree with you. That's wild, wild speculation at this point.

No it’s not
This is not a new process
This has been happening at least since the Clinton presidency

Ann Coulter agrees with me on Trump
Conservative pundit Ann Coulter said Friday that President Trump is "lazy and incompetent" and warned that he might face a challenger for the Republican presidential nomination if he does not uphold his promise to build a border wall.

"We put this lunatic in the White House for one reason," she said on Yahoo News's Skullduggery podcast, claiming that she was simply reminding the president of his promise to deliver on securing border wall funding.

No such thing as too much security, plus with explosions it will be easier to see where they are trying to cross.

That sounds like it could hurt the intruder Jeff,a wall is more humane and would prevent such a scenario.
