The minutemen were ok to start with but now they're just talking goofy. Giving the President a deadline to start a fence when it takes congressional appropriations and 60 votes in the Senate to fund it or they'll do it themselves is goofy. Being that everyones yelling about spending maybe the congress should go ahead and tell the minutemen to start digging? They also got to do better than the 2 pronged barbed wire they plan on using.

The POTUS has nearly unlimited discretion to use existing military assets to meet a clear and present danger to this country.

He could make sure nothing moved across that border by fall if he had the will to do so.

But we all know that he lacks that will.
