Right around the deadline for funding the government, correct? This is genius, he knows he has the public’s support. Uni-party be damned.
This is great and will drive the Democrats nuts. However, I hope that security has been carefully thought out. Do the cartels and other enemies have weapons with the range to fire from the Mexican side of the border and reach the venue?
NICE!! Then declare that our military will be constructing the wall! Sounds good to me
Now this is the kind of bold moves I’ve been hoping for!
Walls are what separates us from the savages.
I just spent two years in El Paso. The numbers show that the violent crime rate is a little higher than the national average, but given what’s south of there, it’s practically idyllic by comparison.
The vast majority of the border is wide open. There was a piece of very tall wall going up right off of I-10 where it skirts the border, but that’s about it. The lack of drug war bleedover from Juarez is more likely due to the fact that numerous drug lords’ mistresses’ and children live in El Paso. It’s something of a “safe zone” from cartel violence as a result.
Good to see Trump getting into campaign mode — because the Democrats never left it. Effectively communicating the issues, as he did in his SOTU, will earn him another term, not tweeting over Stormy or some obscure and irrelevant issue raised by Mueller.
