Bernie Sanders Claims ‘No One Wants’ A Border Wall
Daily Caller ^ | January 6. 2018 | Justin Caruso

Posted on 01/06/2018 6:41:25 PM PST by EdnaMode

Democratic Senator Bernie Sanders claimed Saturday that “no one wants” a border wall between the U.S. and Mexico.

Sanders tweeted Saturday:

SenSanders I'm not sure why President Trump wants to shut down the government over an $18 billion wall that no one wants, isn't needed and Mexico won't pay for. What the American people want, overwhelmingly, is to provide legal protection and a path toward citizenship for 800,000 Dreamers. 1:18 PM - Jan 6, 2018

The socialist senator did not provide any data to back this claim up. Donald Trump won the 2016 election by promising in part to build a wall, so it’s unclear what Sanders was referring to. (RELATED: Bernie Sanders Releases Odd Video Of Rich Men Asking For More Taxes)

Sanders makes active use of his Twitter account and called the GOP tax cuts “looting” in December. This prompted Donald Trump Jr. to tweet at him, “I’m still trying to figure out how letting Americans keep more of THEIR money is looting… but you know logic and such is long gone with the libs. Also socialists likely shouldn’t talk about looting and history in the same sentence.

I want a big beautiful wall, landmines rows and rows of them, trenches with overlapping fields of Fire.

What the American people want....

It's an old RAT tactic that they try to speak with authority lecturing America as to what everyone else wants but you. Soon to follow next week will be this is not who we are....

If we will claim Mexico owes us money, will we keep sending them aid?
Why do we keep giving other nations money that we have to borrow?
Shut it down.

“I want a big beautiful wall, landmines rows and rows of them, trenches with overlapping fields of Fire.”

And guard towers every 50 yards, with armed guards.

Bernie would be right if he didn't edit his comment, unedited it would be when you ask Democrats, Liberals, and illegals, no one one wants a border wall.

However when you ask Republicans, Conservatives and legal immigrants, the vast majority want a border wall!

I've decided that anyone who's against the wall should immediately remove any fencing on their property, and remove all locks from door and windows, since they know those protections don't work.

““No one” = Bernie, wants the border wall. That’s why President Trump was elected and NOT Bernie...........that and Hillary.”

And more importantly, with the exception a bunch of loons in Vermont, no one wants an avowed Communist for a US Senator.

Amid all the questions about Trumps mental fitness, I wonder who thinks Bernie Baby is mental giant?

The Democraps have to keep this immigration crap up forever.
It is the hill they swear to die on. They have nothing else.

Not one policy or even imagined policy.

If Immigration reform is passed and that wall is built, they have NOTHING.

We can help Mexico more by keeping their people home and building their own legal economy.

Dems want control of the Treasury. If it is by uneducated peons, so be it.

Bernie Sanders is a moron, likewise is anyone that considers material issuing from him to be “wisdom”.

Bernie Sanders doesn't live in Arizona where I do, where we have men--whom I believe are snipers--preached atop mountain- and hill-tops. (A few of these men have been interviewed in Spanish by local TV reporters and, of course, they say they're simply there to watch people coming from Mexico.) By the way, apparently some of those they are watching for are M-13 gang members. And these guys, of course, don't say whom they are watching for.

Bernie Sanders is a stupid twit who speaks only for idiots.

Sanders was really the only other candidate who wanted to do something about our massive trade deficit.

Everyone else but Trump, really was all for continuing the sellout. Democrats and Republicans

But Sanders was a complete sellout, on the border.

If Trump had run against him, he could have lost. Now Trump, you said you were for both the wall, and for building up American jobs again.

Your first term is almost one quarter over.

Where are those two issues?

They were the reason I have supported you since the beginning.

Where are they?
