“how many miles of wall would those missiles fund?”

The missiles are what’s known in finance as a “sunken cost” meaning the money is already spent. Yes, they’d need to be replaced at some point but that money is also already budgeted and appropriated. It’s not like the DOD can have a missile garage sale or anything.

Good point. But.. if you use them, how many miles of border wall for each replacement? Border walls equal savings year over year.. replacing missle for a war we shouldn’t be in saves nothing and wastes even more.
Illegals are bankrupting every system for our kids and grandkids. I think our national interest are more prudently served by deporting and enforcing laws... building walls.
