I’m hoping this catches fire and I support it. But in all honesty I’m waiting to hear how this money will be handled, who will manage construction and what happens to the money if the project does not materialize.

I gave and it felt good. Like I was shoving the money directly up Pelosi and Schumer’s noses and twisting. Regardless of how this thing works out, what a statement!

I am doing the same. I want to donate, my Mom wants to donate, but I want to be sure the money can for sure be used for the border wall, than I will donate for sure. How long would it take to reach 1 bil

As far as I am concerned, if the money cannot be used to build the wall, it should go to the disabled vet and his family. The veteran who set this up is a triple amputee and I would like to see a “GoFundMe” set up for this veteran as well.

I agree that Brian Kolfage deserves something for his efforts.

But he states on the GoFundMe page:

• If we don’t reach our goal or come significantly close we will refund every single penny. We are working on a time frame to achieve.

The quote I heard is that the wall can be built if every Trump voter coughs up $80 bucks.

My $80 was in just before it hit $1,000,000.00.

Hope Chuck and Nancy choke on it!

I’m all for this, and will be donating as soon as I finish this post. But I want to know how the money will be provided to the men who’re going to build the wall. What’s the process for putting the money on a contract for a builder? I’m just afraid the government’s going to steal it. Does anyone here know how this would work? I’ll go make my donation and check back later today. If anyone knows, FReepers will!
