Let’s see now...
Lowe’s reports that a chain link fence costs less than $20 per linear foot, installed.
There are 5280 feet per mile.
America’s southern border is about 1,900 miles long, so one continuous chain link fence at that border should cost about 200 million dollars.
Therefore, TWO parallel fences should cost about 400 million dollars.
If we add barbed wire “tops” and uncoil “razor wire” between the fences, the new total would be about 500 million dollars.
But, if we deduct the cost of EXISTING fences that NOW protect about a third of our border, the NEW total cost would be 350 million dollars.
Hmmm...?
How much does our government pay EACH YEAR for “studies” published by “experts”?
And that’s how Trump would get it done. Unlike the “experts” who came up with that estimate, he has actually built stuff and knows true costs.
