    Liberal propaganda! You think us conservatards fall for this baited trap from a guy named Ali F. Rhuzkan? I want insight from white American engineers who know how to freedom the **** out of a concrete wall across the border. Their insight would show you sheeple what American engineered walls can do that other lesser countries could only dream of. American steel. American concrete. American engineers. American labor! For Americans! By Americans! Right @Dei ?

    I'm thinking of starting a clothing line called FABA. For Americans. By Americans. Would need to buy out all the white fabric from American companies first before starting up production though as it would be the only color scheme.

    Of course, different situation, different topographies, different distances, different challenges with respect to private ownership of land and opposition from those landowners, different histories, different laws. In fact, the only similarity is that both countries began as nations of immigrants.

    But since Trump and Netanyahu are so close in thought, perhaps Trump can get Israel to pay for Trump's Wall.

    Yep, and it never changed. The wall discussed was not along the entire border. The wall was built. Obama's own policy and priority was on deporting criminal illegal immigrants, and deported more than any other President in history. Illegal immigration also decreased.

    Two words.

    Sanctuary cities.

    In the meantime, for these folks, Obama's "efforts" were a colossal failure.

    Yeah, it wasn't perfect, and no policy ever will be.

    To say the VERY least.

    So now we'll try this. If it doesn't work, we'll try something else.

    Khrushchev agrees with Trump and Netanyahu. The axis of scumbags.

    So what happens to the double fence that covers 600+ miles right now? And what happens to the virtual monitoring program that was defunded under Obama? And what happens to the all the private land that the wall could cut off owned by US citizens? Imminent domain? Federal acquisition for security purposes? Or do they just make the wall holey so that people could get to their land? And what about that golf course that is along the river?

    IKEA looks like it is prepared to help, but this kit only has one allen wrench.

    They existed in Texas under Governor Bush, President Bush, Governor Perry, and Governor Abott. This is certainly an issue that the GOP has been talking out both sides of their mouths for awhile.

    And? Is that supposed to be a lot of people out of a population of 320 million? Despite your hyperbole and using people's lives poorly, illegal immigration ballooned during the Bush Administration. Don't try and change the facts.

    It's just a dumb policy considering most of the people and drugs move under the ground or go through legal border checks that sees ~25 million people crossing the border monthly.

    End the war on drugs, watch Mexico stabilize, and people won't be so desperate to illegal immigrate. No need for a very costly wall and no need to spend so much money on law enforcement, the court system, and incarceration.

    Texas GOP has always been either pro or lukewarm on illegal immigrants, they help make the wheels go 'round.

    Am I the only one that thought Netanyahu's tweet was sarcasm??

    Israel built a wall to stop terror attacks not illegal immigrants.

    The wall doesn't stop all the attacks .

    I'm seeing the anti-Israel message trend upwards . Maybe it should be . But I don't think we are doing Israel's bidding . In fact most Israeli's want the US out of their affairs

    You're right. In this clip Bill Clinton didn't mention building a wall. He just built a 325 mile "fence" (not WALL... omg that's horrible!)

    Which is quite a bit different then completely walling off the southern border....

    You do understand the difference between what Clinton did and what Donald is proposing?
