The wall is being built and Mexico is paying for it. You're just not smart enough to figure out how . That and the democrats have fought the wall every step in congress and the courts. So try a better analogy. -

Not one mile of wall has been built, and even if that son of a bitch was 1 mile high and ten feet thick, people would still be coming here illegally because most illegal immigration is from visa overstays that came here on planes.
Also they need more manpower to actually patrol and enforce the hypothetical “wall”, otherwise the wall may as well not be there.
All in all, the 12 billion dollars or however the fuck much it would cost is a drop in the bucket compared to the tens of trillions our government squanders every year, and is just another distraction for sheep like youThe following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -
2020-01-09 at 2 AM UTCRead and learn:
Of those 201-205 miles the Trump administration has received funding for through a combination of appropriations and the Treasury Forfeiture Fund (TFF), however, only 46.7miles have been built two-and-a-half years into Trump's presidency. Much of the border wall that has been built has been put up in places where construction is replacing "dilapidated designs."

I don’t vote btw, don’t identify with either party of the two-party system, I’m anti-voting, and you guys are part of the problem
No. "We" is Americans. Just because I'm a registered Democrat doesn't mean I agree with everything the Democrats say. I do believe we should have a Senate that at least votes on bills and doesn't have their head cockblocking any sort of movement. Republicans call democrats the "do nothing democrats" while they're sitting on some 200-300 bills just waiting to be voted on. Even if they don't pass, we deserve movement in our government.
Not voting is retarded. -

As someone who has crossed the border it always makes me lol that Republicans want to build a wall. There was ALREADY a wall where it mattered. There is a lot of wall. It still doesn't stop people.
The majority of illegal immigrants just come in on a visa and overstay. Completely legal entry -
2020-01-09 at 2:07 AM UTCWhat we deserve is a better government. Who gives a fuck how many bills are awaiting a vote? Half of them are probably laced with poison pills anyway, because neither side is capable of compromise. You think it’s just the republicans?

That’s all fine and wonderful, sure we need a better government. You gonna vote em in? This is what we have, and this is what we’ll have to deal with.
I GAF that bills an prescription drug costs are sitting there.
I GAF that bills regarding healthcare are sitting there.
I GAF that a bipartisan bill about gun regulation is sitting there.
I could go on, I believe there’s something like 200 bills in “waiting”.

I got it from verifiable fact. It was from several months ago though so they may have built a little bit of it since the latest spending deal.
I like how you completely missed my point though which is that 1) a wall would be nearly useless and 2) it’s just another thing for you to argue with democrats about while your corporate overlords continue to gorge themselves at our expense -
