    vdare is an anti-immigration web site associated with white supremacy, white nationalists, and alt-right groups.

    I literally told you in my previous post I wasn't going to make an attempt to answer your question till you dealt with the question "What makes walls moral or immoral". You obviously didn't read my post.

    Where is YOUR answer? You keep flailing around.

    How will you trash Real Clear Politics (where this story is REALLY hosted) in order to deflect from the statistics presented?

    By now you know trump mixes lies, with misused stats, and since trump lies so often and so easily, virtually nothing he says can be believed or trusted. trump has used and misused these stats previously:

    Gee, I wonder why a racist/white national/white supremacist site like vdare would post this editorial? I also wonder who in the white house suggested to trump to promote it? stephen miller perhaps? or trump himself?

    OK, so no Democratic leader has said to dismantle the wall at border checkpoints.

    Now that is settled, you want to know why an inanimate object like a wall or fence is immoral? IMO any inanimate object can't be moral or immoral... that would require awareness of right and wrong, which would require it to be a person or group of people. So your question doesn't make any sense and is easily ignored.

    What you should be asking is whether trump's policy towards building a wall stretching along the entire southern border is moral. Now that is a logical question... and one I can easily answer. No, clearly not. If it was, trump wouldn't feel the compulsion to lie so much about it to support its construction. Since lying is both morally and ethically wrong, the policy of building his vanity wall is immoral.

    I think just about everybody in this country suffers from TDS Trump Derangement Syndrome. If you are one of the ones that have drank the koolaid and support all of Trumps ideas and tantrums you have zero tolerance for anyone who does not agree with or support his agenda. If you are like the majority of the country that do not like Trump and his childishness, his lack of civility, his unwillingness to communicate well with others that don't exalt him or otherwise suck up to him, the list goes on and on, TDS is rampant and not likely to go away anytime soon because every day we wake up and realize what a danger it is having him as president.

    You have to ask yourself are you better off than you were 2 years ago when Trump became president. I think the answer is crystal clear. We are not.

    People are willing to let other AMERICANS starve and work in indentured servitude without pay . . .. . for The Russian Agent and his Red Sparrow wife can get a wall . . ..as a symbol of their reign

    Trump can not read, so we can safely eliminate him.

    LOL... I am sure stephen miller or fox & friends read it slowly to him. Without pictures or drawings to hold the toddle-in-chief's interest, I suspect it took a few hours.

    Not sure what your point is.. They didn't have walls, did they? And look what happened.
    The TDS is strong in this one!

    Nope, never drank the koolaid. Trump was not my choice. BUT, I have then evaluated him based on what he has done, just as I would have had Hillary been elected. Unlike the left, which has always, and will always, just hate everything about him. Hence...TDS.

    and, a classic double down, highlighting the truth of what you say about this not going away any time soon. Which does nothing but show how rampant TDS is...a true epidemic.

    This shows how deep the TDS is. The real answer to this question for the vast majority of Americans is yes, you are. But that's hard to see through the veil of TDS. Taxes are down, putting more money in people's pockets. Economy is up. Jobs are up. Pay is up. In what way are people not better off?

    Funny, trump (and his supporters) should suddenly be big fans of patrick buchanon. Mr. Peabody and Sherman will take us back in the Wayback Machine:
