IF TRUE (and that's a big IF), that's a VERY reasonable price.

Should be able to recoup that in seizures from drug money going south and taxing wire transfers from illegals back home.

damn sight cheaper than paying for all these refugees, health, food, housing, dental, education, etc. The throw in all the illegals too for all that plus those in prison who are illegally.

Yep I have no problem with the cost, and then we pass it on to Mexico at a later date.

We give that much to Afghanistan, Egypt, Syria, and Pakistan every year.

$21 billion is the DEAL OF THE CENTURY! We already spend $113 BILLION every year on illegals...more than the entire cost of ObamaCare.

Worth every penny. Heck, might as well build one along our northern border too.

calculator not handy.
Over 10 million dollars per mile?

“•Construct a new 2-lane undivided road – about $2 million to $3 million per mile in rural areas, about $3 million to $5 million in urban areas.
•Construct a new 4-lane highway — $4 million to $6 million per mile in rural and suburban areas, $8 million to $10 million per mile in urban areas.
•Construct a new 6-lane Interstate highway – about $7 million per mile in rural areas, $11 million or more per mile in urban areas.”

No, it'll be a wall.

Trump didn’t allow for the fact that it will be built by the government. $21 billion will at least double.

With the savings we’d get in welfare, housing, medical, education and criminal activities, we should be able to pay back the taxpayers for this wall in six or seven months.

Cheap. Compared to the damage this nation is taking, it’s a bargain.

$21.6 billion, more than three years to construct,

Hehe.

Under budget, and ahead of schedule.

Anyone want to bet?

Yeah, we all know Trumps reputation will hold true.

If Fauxcohontis manages to win the next election, she’ll probably install doorways every mile for a cost of 43.2 million

Trump border 'wall' to cost $21.6 billion, take 3.5 years to build: internal report

Far cheaper than the cost illegal immigration from Mexico imposes on us. Build the thing already - and get legislation passed to make sure it is manned and monitored, or the next time a Democrat takes office the whole thing will come down.
