Former Koch Exec, Now White House Staffer, Marc Short: We Need a ‘Conversation’ About ‘... Wall’
Breitbart.com ^ | 16 Sep 2017 | John Binder

During a segment on CNN, the former Koch brothers executive turned White House staffer Marc Short said that Americans needed to “have a serious conversation” about “what the definition of a wall is,” in regards to the U.S.-Mexico border wall that President Trump promised to build.

Short, who led the Never Trump movement inside the pro-mass immigration Koch brothers’ organizations, questioned what exactly a border wall would look like under the administration, while also pushing amnesty for nearly 800,000 illegal aliens shielded by the Obama-created Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

“I think that what the definition of a wall is, is something that we all need to have a serious conversation” about, White House legislative affairs director Marc Short said on CNN’s “The Situation Room.”

Short said, “in some cases,” it would be a kind of fencing.

“It is a myriad of different structures,” Short said.

...

As Breitbart News reported, Short has a long history of opposing the president and his agenda, as well as working alongside the Koch brothers, two pro-mass immigration billionaires who are major donors to the Republican establishment, as the director of the group Freedom Partners.

In May 2016, during the height of the Republican presidential primary, where Trump was taking the country by storm on his populist-nationalist “America First” agenda, Short was heading an effort to derail the then-front-runner.

...

Though Trump has said he now wants the 800,000 DACA recipients to remain in the U.S., denying that the move is ‘amnesty,’ any deal involving legalization of illegal aliens could trigger a flood of at least four to six million legal immigrants, as Breitbart News reported.

Someone with a LOT more seniority than you got banned early this morning for directing profanity at the president. Just a word to the wise.

We don’t need to talk about the wall.

Trump talked about it when he came down the escalator & talked about it all during this campaign. His talk about the wall is what got him elected.

Trump has built many walls - he know how to do this in his sleep.

Enough talking! BUILD THE WALL!!!
