It is very important to me that the Wall is built.
But it is especially important to me that the GOVERNMENT build the wall.
Defense against foreign invasion. It's in the Constitution. I need to see my government care about that, and shoulder the responsibility.
UPDATE: JANUARY 11, 2019
WE ARE BUILDING THE WALL! You can still donate right now on this Gofundme!! The media is falsely reporting all money is being refunded and its over. They are WRONG. WE ARE BUILDING THE WALL and you can STILL donate or opt in if you donated before January 11th TO SUPPORT the plan...
By submitting this request, I am confirming that I would like my donation(s) to go to WeBuildTheWall Inc., the new 501(c)(4) organization created to manage the money raised on Brian Kolfages campaign:

https://support.gofundme.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000279271
Already redirected my $200 to their new venture...
Actually, I like the idea if sections of wall NOT government owned

It is impossible to deny that the present government is both malfeasant and indifferent towards its fundamental responsibilities. Though some within still try, collectively it is an expensive, sullen ornament.

Stupid, wrong headline.
I received an email asking me if I wanted them to automatically forward my contribution to the 501(c)4 account OR refund my money. Painless and totally non-panic inducing.
We need to get the funding for the wall and it will be built. This President isn’t a haberdasher from Missouri or a peanut farmer from Georgia or an actor from California or a charlatan from Arkansas or an undistinguished law school lecturer and community organizer from Illinois but a professional builder with a history of success. He knows who will get the job done and he’ll put them in place to do it.
I've donated without the expectation it would EVER get to even within eyesight of its $5B goal. And, I agree 100% with you that the "wall", whatever form it takes, must be paid for and built by the Constitutionally-mandated-to-protect-us Federal government.
However, the message it sent was worth the contribution price - Congress has been dickering with the issue for far too long without proper action. This GFM drive gave/gives them a little kick in the pants, get off their duffs and do it.
It bother's me to no end thinking they did nothing while running the House for 2 years, and what now, go into another wilderness epoch of no action? Well, this $20M GFM is another loud poke at 'em.
Redirect Ping.
We will never have a wall in that case. This is not about border security to the dems. It is not about free dhimmicrat votes by the newly established dependent class. It is 100% about the existential threat currently embodied by Donald Trump, and the belief that shutting down the wall will crumble his support, and this threat must be eliminated by any means necessary. By hook or by crook, and 5 or 10 or even 100 billion dollars spent on judge shopping if that is what it takes, in order to goad trump into acting on an impeachable offense that the media will trumpet at volume 11 24/7.
I’m not a lawyer, but I don’t believe a private venture is capable of withstanding the multitude of lawsuits this project will generate.
im glad to see Tom Tancredo Still in the fight. He must feel vindicated after all these years.

kinda like confederate statues on private land - nobody could tear them down
I donated when the money was intended for the wall directly. I’m suspicious of this redirect. Besides, private construction of the wall seems even more iffy than giving the money to the government to build it. Will it be part of the wall or some private property sections? Messy. Congress should do this directly.
