So true. The cost of welfare payouts alone is enough to build the wall.
While we’re squeezing Mexicans for money to build the wall, we should squeeze a few billion out of the Cartels somehow...right before we murder their drug peddling asses in their own country.
Just the reduced cost of government-provided (taxpayer-provided) benefits will more than cover the cost of the wall. Imagine how many illegals sit in our public schools right now. At, what $8000-12,000 per student per year. Plus free lunch. SSI. Section 8. Plenty of states pay benefits as well as the federal government.
And think about all the overcrowded roads in southern California. Imagine them with no illegals clogging them up.
The Drug Trade Deficit with Mexico is larger than the Other Trade Deficit.
And all the Fed $$ the sanctuary cities will not be receiving because they refuse to comply can be re-directed to the wall. That might just make their collective heads explode.
How much does it cost to birth an anchor baby? How much for welfare for the anchor baby for at least 18 years?
15 to 25 billion? Is that Trump’s estimate? I ask because it swings by two thirds again and THAT doesn’t sound like Trump.
How is it that the press keeps upping the price of this wall?
Hit it right on the nail. Always thought the wall would pay for itself. Then we just need to set rules to play nicely over, under and around the thing.
Don’t waste time squeezing the Mexicans.
Just get the darn thing built and properly patrolled.
“The cost of welfare payouts alone is enough”
You ain’t gonna hear that from the Left-Stream Media!
“right before we murder their drug peddling asses”
A beautiful sentiment…
Might be difficult to get through Congress, though.
“Imagine them (the roads) with no illegals clogging them up.”
And, their easily-aquired driving licenses allow them to vote (illegally) like real Americans.
“The Drug Trade Deficit with Mexico is larger”
Thanks for mentioning this very significant point.
“might just make their collective heads explode.”
OMG!!
Would I like to see that happen?!

“I would like to see a wall this height built.”
Okay, so you build a one hundred foot wall.
According to the left, the illegals will bring a one hundred and ten foot ladder. Everyone knows, your average Ace Hardware store out there in the Mexican desert carries all the one hundred and ten foot ladders you might need. And I don’t think our drones and electronic surveillance equipment will notice while they’re putting their 110 foot ladder in place.
funny....
the high walls are doable at the seattle airport but not on our border ?
I can’t seem to find the picture right now, but I’ve seen a high wall compromised on the Mexican side via bulldozers. They move earth to create a ramp right up to the top of the wall.
