They aren’t all worthless. That’s not fair.

The ones that come here legally are great, and usually assimilate and love America.

Trump’s been saying you only need about 900 miles for ages. The only people picking this crap up are the lying never trumpers.

Yea he’s been saying that for a while. The terrain will dictate the type of wall that needs to be put up. You’re not just going to waste money and put up something monolithic in an area that doesn’t require it.

He has been saying this for 18 Months.

Has everyone been in a Coma or something or is it just the DNC Media still trying to erode President’s support?

Today, Trump also made this statement during an Air Force One presser...

“What I’d like to do is a comprehensive immigration plan. But our country and political forces are not ready yet.”

I always knew Trump would walk away from most of his immigration tough talk if he won the election.

He’s going to deport a bunch of criminal illegal immigrants (good), and he will reduce the number of new illegal immigrants (also good).

But that will be the end of it.

Trump has always supported massive LEGAL immigration (currently 1.5 million per year), and he has always supported huge numbers of foreign work visas (currently at least 1 million in the USA).

I will vote to reelect him in 2020, and maybe he can win, but Trump will be the last Republican president in my lifetime.

As long as he takes advice from the Border Patrol/DHS/ICE, whomever appropriate to weigh in, fine.
He has more info now than when on the campaign trail- but if there’s a need, and a lack of funding, that would suck.

They aren't all bad its true. But 70% of Hispanics vote democrat. We can't keep taking tons of them in and survive. the whole country will become California.

Too bad. Where there is no wall is where they will go. No matter how far out of they way that is where the dope smugglers and coyotes will cross. All immigration needs to stop for a few years. Maybe decades. We will be as crowded as India eventually.

The title itself demonstrates that this article is classic FAKE NEWS!

Stating this as though it is new news is the lie...

The Rio Grande doesn’t appear to be that much of a detriment to them. Not unless you import some gators.

During the campaign, I recall Trump saying he would build a wall across the entire Mexican border.

Several of the Comments here claim that Trump stopped saying that “18 months ago” or “ages ago” or “over a year ago.”

Can someone give me the exact date when Trump first informed 2016 voters that he was not going to build a wall across the entire border?

Thanks...
