Title: 'A wall is not going to fix this': Cindy McCain says Trump's pet project won't curtail human trafficking

Cindy McCain, the widow of GOP Sen. John McCain, on Friday slammed the idea of a wall to curtail human trafficking at the southern border, which President Donald Trump has repeatedly cited as a problem in an attempt to build support for his long-promised barrier.

In her NBC News interview on Friday, McCain also lamented the lack of civility in Washington and said that her husband, who died last August, would have wanted lawmakers to debate one another on the issues but work together on a bipartisan basis.

McCain has been an outspoken advocate for stopping human trafficking. She currently serves on the Arizona governor's council on human trafficking and has worked with officials in her home state to raise awareness and fix laws around the issue.

She also heads the human trafficking initiative at the McCain Institute and was in New York City to participate in the 10th annual Women in the World program at Lincoln Center.

...but she hates Trump so much she doesn't want to fix even some of the problem if it's Trump's idea.

Ask the Dems and Celebs that have walls protecting their property if Walls work

Here we go...more prognosticators able to reach beyond the grave and telling us, “what they’d want.”

She is partially correct...this is a multi-layer solution, and the wall simply represents the first of a dozen-odd steps that will have to take place over the next decade. Eventually, after the wall is done, we will probably go to some ‘citizen-card’ that you have to carry on your person, to ID who you are, or if you are a ‘visitor’.

She’s right - the cartels have assured her that her payments will continue despite the wall

What a great presidency this has been so far. Trump is exposing all these phony globalists on both sides. McVain’s wife can go shove it!

Brings even more truth to the soon to be common phrase “dumb as a McCain”.

A wall will not fix human trafficking Cindy. But a wall is a major deterrent to human trafficking Cindy. Trump has never maintained a wall, by itself, will stop human trafficking.

Take another pill Cindy.

Sure it may not fix it but if it improves the situation that’s a step in the right direction.

“Take another pill Cindy.”

Better still, go down to your beer distributorship and “tank up, Sweetie!”

She might be right but getting rid of Democrats would sure fix a lot of problems, like illegal immigration, this Republic is having now.

Theoretically, if you are an alien, you have to carry your passport at all times.

Theoretically.

If Trump was against a wall, they’d all demand one be built and a moat be dug and filled with acid.

Correct, we also need landmines and a mote.

A trillion dollars and 4k deaths did not fix the middle east either. A few billion bucks is chump change and will prevent deaths.

I had this same argument with a liberal this week.

Suppose the wall can’t STOP it. A 90% reduction is still great progress and worth the effort.

Perhaps this is a case of me digging through a pile of manure in hopes of finding a pony, but it bodes well that AT LEAST she acknowledges that human trafficking is taking place.
