Trump will block border wall 'sections' in California until 'the whole wall' is approved
Washington Examiner ^ | 02/28/18

President Trump said Wednesday he would block portions of the border wall that California wants built now until the funding for the entire southern wall is approved and funded.

“I have decided that sections of the Wall that California wants built NOW will not be built until the whole Wall is approved. Big victory yesterday with ruling from the courts that allows us to proceed. OUR COUNTRY MUST HAVE BORDER SECURITY!,” Trump tweeted.

In fact, should the funding not be adequate, CA should be the last border state to have the wall completed. The mayors of CA cities love illegal aliens so much that they don’t want ICE to arrest criminal illegals, so they won’t mind having no defense against them.

Good. Hypocritical California Democrats want a wall to protect THEIR State but screw everyone else! Now Trump is forcing them to support the whole wall before they can get what they want.

WINNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’d love to see it with some Trumpian touches.

Such as 40’ tall with gold-plated barbed wire on top.

I don’t see why the C-in-C can’t fortify an international border. He should be able to do so without anyone’s approval.

CA seems to want as many illegals as possible.

Perhaps they are trolling Trump about “wanting” the new border wall sections. In which case, the delay won’t be seen as a punishment.

Customs and Border Protection is replacing a little more than two miles in downtown Calexico, a sliver of the president’s plan for a “big, beautiful wall” with Mexico. A barrier built in the 1990s from recycled metal scraps and landing mat will be torn down for bollard-style posts that are 30 feet high, significantly taller than existing walls.


The devious part of me imagines the old wall taken down first and then construction stopped. Let them live with no wall for awhile...................

LOL. Masterful trolling. What’s the beef? CA wants to be a sanctuary state anyway.

When you think about how long this wall is taking, I don’t think this is Trump getting back at liberal California. I think this is a sign that the wall isn’t going to be built.

Can you even imagine what it would be like to try to illigally immigrate to another country? What sort of mentality does it take to be a U.S. citizen and just walk into Mexico, and not expect to get sent back or sent to prison the first time you can’t show your Mexican citizenship to an officer? How bizarre would it be if all the local governments started providing you with identification papers and allowed you to access medical and financial services, sometimes, with more take-aways than the locals even get? Wouldn’t you have to think, they love me here! They want me here more than their own natural born citizens! All I have to do is find a way to vote for the local politicians. WINK WINK. I get it.

I like the idea of funneling the MS-13 ‘Dreamers’ into California - let them deal with it!

Reminds me of what I read long ago about some Midwestern town trying to handle a male kid who couldn’t figure out his real sexuality. So the town gave him a one-way ticket to San Francisco, figuring that if anywhere in the country could deal with him, they could.

They were right, SF dealt with the kid and he ended up fine, and so did the town that wanted nothing of him.
