If a wall replaces a fence, it is a new wall. Now if there is a wall already there, then it is a replacement.

As a Leftist he will never be “tuned in enough to realize how wrong he is.”

Bill Clinton: “Depends on what your definition of “is” is.

Depends on what your definition of “new” is. Looks new. Feels new. Irritates open borders lefties like its new. . . Must be new . . . even though it does replace ineffective and virtually worthless existing fence.

He’s lying. There was no wall like this and replacing broken down chain link fences with steel wall in critical areas, is a new wall.

As for quickly or not, any delay is owing to scumbag leftists like Shepard Smith.

"there is no new [??? emphasis added] wall"

On campaign trail, Trump made it clear simply that wall was going to be unclimbable, had compared it with much longer Great Wall of China.

In fact, when Mexico scoffed about paying for wall, Trump joked that wall just got 10ft higher.

Trump scolds Mexican prez for saying he won't pay for the wall: 'The wall just got 10 feet taller'

Trump’s discussions about wall reasonably meant that any existing fence will replaced if it’s broken or uselessly short.

So what leftist Smith is doing is changing the goal posts.

Thanks for this link Rustybucket. Worth repeating.

“So he wants new wall where there is nothing presently. When that starts to happen he still won’t be happy.”

He doesn’t want ANY wall and the delay had been caused by Trump’s enemies. So his “criticism” of no “new” wall is a total scam.

Very similar to when the leftists block missile defenses because “it won’t work”. They just don’t want it.

Perfect plan: When you have nothing to say, rely on nitpicking to make your point. The word "new" to me means "recent". To Stupid Shepard, "new" means "nothing resembling what is there now was ever there before". So this

is the same as this:

The old fence looks like it was designed to be climbed.
