She is just factually incorrect that Trump has not gotten money for the wall. He got $1.6 billion in FY17, and another $1.6 Billion in FY18.
It took about a year of lead time with planning and contracting to get started, but some segments have already been finished (Calexico, CA West of the Port of Entry, and 20 miles West from El Paso).
That area of Calexico previously led the Nation in attacks on Border Patrol Officers - but now it is quiet. The new thirty foot bollards there had an illegal climber fall shortly after they were installed - breaking both his femurs and severely injuring his spine. Ann Coulter could ask him if President Trump gotten any new barrier (if he’s still alive).
Construction is underway now in Downtown El Paso, and San Diego is getting two new layers of strong barrier from the Ocean to the Mountain. The first of those layers is a little over half done (8 out of 14 miles), but not one of the recent migrant mob was able to climb, breach or tunnel under the new stuff.
The new Trump barrier is being called “wall system”, because it includes several significant additions that make it more effective, in addition to the tall bollards which are strong enough to stop a speeding truck - lights, cameras, alarm systems and all weather patrol road.
Just this month, more contracts were awarded around Yuma Arizona, and two in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas, where illegal traffic is heaviest (construction scheduled to start in February). Several more segments are expected to be awarded in the next couple of months as well in the Rio Grande Valley, as well as 11 more miles East of the Port of Entry in Calexico, CA - probably elsewhere as well.
Most of the money that President Trump has already received for the wall, has not yet been contracted, due to early planning delays, so a much higher volume is expected to be contracted in 2019 than was in 2018.
The Senate had budgeted another $1.6 Billion for next year, but the House approved a tripling to $5 Billion. All the arguement is between those numbers for next year.
Thank you for injecting some FACTS to counter the handwringers.
