If you’re not happy with the wall being built, you’re a Never Trump dim wit just looking for something bellyache about. The wall will pay for itself.

Who said anything about not big happy with building the wall?

Get a grip. You and I both know Trump promised repeatedly and often that Mexico would pay for the wall (not “the wall will pay for itself”). The wall may very well pay for itself but that was not Trump’s argument or promise during the campaign. Pay attention.

Holding a politician to his promises is not “bellyaching” - it’s called “TRUST BUT VERIFY”, not unlike a treaty. NOT holding politicians to their promises is how we got into this mess to begin with.

If Trump was going to build a wall regardless of who pays for it then he should have said so during the campaign. But he didn’t. Time to wise up and hold politicians accountable for their promises.
