“including construction of the president’s proposed wall at the Mexican border, over a 10-year period — not immediately, as Mr. Trump demands.”

No reason to stretch it out, except to prevent it from actually happening. The proponents clearly want to perpetuate illegal border crossings.

That’s the definition of a Republican win. Democrats get their liberal issues today, Republicans delay implementation of their issues so they can be cancelled by another Congress.

Bingo.

And how many more pregnant illegals would rush in during that intentionally slow pace, even if it was completed within 10 years? Moreover, it is quite likely succeeding Red Dem admins would cease funding.

With funding, a secure system of physical walls/electronic devices/suitable structures per terrain. etc. could be completed within 18 months by separate local contractors. (For example, see WWII)

Easy ‘fix’ w/ one line:

Make the rest of the bill contingent upon the finalization of tho last panel put into place and signed-off upon.

IE: Don’t start any ‘timer’ until the wall is DONE *FIRST*

I know, I know, it’d never see the light of day w/ THAT amendment :P
