Beto O'Rourke says he would 'absolutely' tear down Trump's wall, along with 600 miles of existing barriers at the US-Mexico border

Beto O'Rourke denounced President Trump's proposed border wall in an interview Thursday after Congress passed a spending bill allocating $1.4B for it

The former congressman from El Paso said: 'Absolutely, I'd take the wall down'

He asserted that the 600 miles of barriers currently at the border haven't made America safer, but have led to the deaths of 4,000 migrants

'We have walled off their opportunity to legally petition for asylum' O'Rourke said

Beto O'Rourke said that he would take down existing walls and fences along the US-Mexico border if given the opportunity.

The former congressman from El Paso made the declaration in an MSNBC interview Thursday after the House and Senate passed a spending bill allocating $1.4billion for President Donald Trump's proposed border wall.

The White House said Thursday that Trump intends to sign the spending measure but will declare a national emergency 'to ensure we stop the national security and humanitarian crisis at the border'.

After the bill was passed by both chambers, Texas Rep Dan Crenshaw asked O'Rourke on Twitter: 'If you could snap your fingers and make El Paso's border wall disappear, would you?'

O'Rourke responded: 'Absolutely, I'd take the wall down.'

So Butthead makes it perfectly clear he supports criminal foreign invasion and supports the drug cartels. No surprise there.

Hispanic voters like "Beto". They share his antipathy toward the United States and his view that the country should end and be replaced with some kind of borderless Amerexico.

When the Hispanic majority in Texas is old enough to vote, they will elect someone like him to the Presidency. In every election. For the rest of our lives.

We can’t live with these people. Partition the nation and build a wall around their putrid asses.

So he considers Mexican or other citizens higher up than Americans. Fine, just don’t hold office here.

They like him by the scores!
Preferably in the dark, where INS can't quite make out their faces from the photos). Isn't that just a "little" weird?

The whole system is going to collapse.

Exactly. That's the plan. Cloward Piven in action.

Beto is a misanthrope of the 1st order. Peter Pan style. Put him in some green tights and send him out on the campaign trail.

There are 48 land=based legal ports of entry along the US/Mexico border, plus more than 300 ports of entry at seaports and airports. I sure don’t understand why people can’t or won’t go to ports of entry. Do you?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I understand. The left wants to have a UN sponsored refugee camp alomng the US Southern border which will house 100,000 Central/South American refugees who want to work for the American dollar. Among them will be Islamofascists and Drug Cartel agents, and MS-13.

What President Trump is doing is in defense of our Sovereignty and way of life.
