GoFundMe for border wall raises more than $2M in just 3 days

A supporter of President Trump’s border wall proposal has started a GoFundMe to help pay for the project — and the fund skyrocketed to more than $2 million on Wednesday night after being live for just three days.

Brian Kolfage, a Trump voter and disabled Iraq War veteran with no connection to the administration, wrote that he set up the page because “President Trump’s main campaign promise was to BUILD THE WALL. And as he’s followed through on just about every promise so far, this wall project needs to be completed still.”

Trump campaigned on building a “great wall” on the southern border during the 2016 presidential election.

As the end of Trump’s second year in office comes to a close, his administration has not built the wall or secured funds for it — and a budget proposal passed Wednesday by the Senate did not fulfill Trump’s call to provide funds for it.

Kolfage wrote on his fundraising page that if every Trump voter donates $80 to his wall-building campaign, they will raise $5 billion needed to build the border wall.

“Even if we get half, that’s half the wall. We can do this,” Kolfage wrote on the GoFundMe page.

It was HIS White House that expressed this. It was only after Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, The Congressional Freedom Caucus and WE THE PEOPLE starting/contributing to a wall fund that caused Trump to reverse course. lol

It appeared was going to cave....and then the above.

Yep... I was on it punch by punch, round by round for the last two days and this is what I saw too, they were steering him in the wrong direction and wanted him to throw the fight.

It was absolutely fantastic last night to yell “YES! He heard the fans and it’s a KO with an uppercut!” lol

FANTASTIC! :)
