WALL: Trump is right

The Wall. Is it necessary? Trump says yes — Chuck and Nancy say no. Let’s explore.

Trump wants $5 billion to get started. Well, first off, do we really need border security? Do we care if drugs pour across, destroying lives of countless adults and children? Would the broken parents of an addicted child think open borders are an OK idea?! Can pain and suffering be a factor or is it politically incorrect to have such thoughts?

I think also that the cost to American taxpayers for drug addiction treatment would be billions EACH YEAR. How about the savings on border security after the wall is built — billions more EACH YEAR. And oh yes, the cost of social programs for illegals –— billions more to taxpayers EACH YEAR.

Yeah, crime, human and sex trafficking and on it goes. It seems to me that $5 billion for a wall would be a no-brainer, even for a liberal! Remember, we do welcome into America about one million immigrants legally EACH YEAR. Now, I ask anyone with an ounce of common sense. Why in the world would you NOT want a wall? Obama gave Iran $150 billion to spread terror around the world and a clear path to a nuclear bomb, but Democrats refuse to give $5 billion to secure our southern border? Yikes!

So, I say to Trump, “Don’t give an inch. Shut the government down until the wall is funded.” Without the wall our beloved America is toast — BURNT TOAST!
