I don't know what to make of this. I don't know if this is a complete fabrication or if this guy Kelly should feel the thud of a polished wingtip between his butt cheeks ASAP. Since when are we talking about a bit of a wall here and there? We already have areas with mere fencing and we see how effective those are at keeping the vermin from Mexico and farther south out. They can't count on rivers keeping them out, as the Rio Grande itself is not that deep and can easily be crossed. I would think that rivers and mountains could be walled off in a fashion. It would require some very elegant engineering, but what are all those engineering schools we have across the country for?

Memo to General Kelly: You are not the president. You are former military. Act like it, instead of undermining your superior. Officers have been court-martialed for less.

Watch the interview. This is the worst possible summary of it.

White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly told Democratic lawmakers Wednesday that the US will never build a wall along the entire southern border


He never said he needed to and said so during the campagin! Natural barriers, rivers, mountains, etc.

I saw the interview- Kelly says we need 800 miles of Wall NOT 2500 - he came from DHS. He understands the terrain- senseless to build a wall over a mountain in the desert, instead use high tech (drones, etc). Kelly is 110% behind border Security - MSM just spinning his words ...

Wonder how much could be paid by “Go Fund Me”?

I’d throw in a chunk! Just to p.o. the communist.

I've learned to not believe everything I read-- especially initial MSM reports that put this Administration in a bad light and particularly stories that have no direct quotes or just a bunch of chopped up quotes without context.

Why don't we just climb down from the ledge here and wait until something like a full story comes out?

"I would think that rivers and mountains could be walled off in a fashion. It would require some very elegant engineering..."

The Chinese did it 500+- years ago, with manual labor. If we can't do it with the machines, materials and engineering that we have today, we deserve to be overrun by third-world invaders.

Fact or fake news? If fact, if Kelly did say this, he should resign as he is not being loyal to his boss. Very disappointing to see Trump’s own staff don’t support his agenda or that Trump is playing us. Which is it?

Army officers don’t last long if they violate the chain of command. Kelly is a Lt General, a 3 star, and he didn’t get there by publicly contradicting his superiors. If he has an opinion he shares it privately, it would be ingrained in him. The article is crap.

Hmmm. Wall? What would the Chinese (not the chicoms) do?

I really don’t care how ‘big’ the wall is - I assume every square inch will be monitored, at least.

And a good way to pay for it? Take the 97 BILLION we spend every year on illegal aliens (cut them off - they’ll have to go home) and use the first year’s return to build a BIG BEAUTIFUL WALL>

“And, by the way, the wall just got ten feet taller.. “
bwahaha!

You really believed there was going to be a 2000 mile wall?
