Where is that wall Trump promised us?


What happened to the wall Trump promised and why didn't Mexico pay for it? Did Trump lie?

reply

Hey! Trumpy! Leave those kids alone!
All in all you're just another slat of weathered steel (with possible solar panels) in the wall...

reply

It's being built as we speak.

reply

It's being built right now, but the news is too busy cranking out the anti-Trump scripts the Democraps wrote for them, so that's why you're not hearing about it.

reply

So it will be built soon like he promised? Is Mexico paying for it as promised as well?

reply

It's in the process right now, and keep in mind, it is over 1,925 miles long, so it's taking some time. Mexico is technically paying for it, but not in the way everyone thought. What you won't hear in the news, is that Trump got Mexico to fire up their own immigration, law enforcement, and military, to deal with illegals coming in through their country before they ever reach the border. The payment comes in the form of hard work from those entities within Mexico. So yes, they did pay for a wall, of sorts.

reply

If it's not built during his term I'm holding him accountable for lying.

reply

Get in line. Everyone on the left is accusing him of lying at this time of year. Too bad they were totally deaf when we called them out on the mountain range of lies their own party idols tell on a daily basis.

reply

It's not about being on the left, it's about holding him accountable. Deflecting to a lie another person told doesn't make a lie someone else told disappear. This thread is about Trump's promise not the left or the right. It isn't about Obama or any past president either.

reply

You guys should hold your own people accountable before attacking others. This double-standard of letting your own people get away with everything (including murder), but nobody else can, destroys any credibility you have by pretending to be the fake morality police. It makes the lot of you look like hypocrites and liars yourselves, and honestly, you calling Trump or any other Republican a liar is like holding a mirror up to yourselves. You're just blowing hot, empty air and following the script the media told your mind to follow instead of taking a look at where you stand. We're done here.

reply

Again this thread is about Trump. You are making a baseless assumption because you are salty I am calling out Trump. You are doing exactly what I predicted his blind worshipers would do. Immediately go off topic and point fingers at the left to take away the attention from Trump. You do not even know if I have called out Obama or any person on the left. You want to assume I have not simply because I am asking a question about Trump and will hold him accountable. I call anyone who lies a liar, it is not limited to their political party. People like you prove you are more concerned with protecting their political party rather than calling something right or wrong. Get educated and then speak to me. Your ignorance is dismissed.

reply

It doesn't mean he lied (and I think you know it). He's only human and cannot predict the other agenda that comes up which would naturally derail and slow the process. Why, would like to believe he lied about as a form of projection?

reply

What is the definition of a lie? Want me to link you to the dictionary definition? You can't make a promise and then go well I did not know what would happen on the other side. If you are not sure then maybe you shouldn't make a promise you possibly can't keep?

reply

ITS BEING KEPT....ARE YOU DAFT...HE WENT RIGHT TO WORK ON THAT WALL...ITS BEEN SLOWED AND DELAYED LIKE CRAZY BUT IT IS WELL,WELL UNDERWAY...NOT HITTING COMPLETION BEFORE HIS TERM IS UP IS A MILLION MILES FROM A LIE...LINK THE DEFINITION ALL YOU LIKE...IT WILL ONLY SUPPORT WHAT EVERYONE IS SAYING TO YOU..NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.

reply

Lol. Yeah just like how the economy is the best it has ever been...

reply

I DONT FOLLOW THAT CRAP...IS IT? BE HONEST.

reply

Yeah just look around unemployment rates are at a high rate. The economy is great...

reply

SNEAKY...I HAVE TO IMAGINE YOURE USING COVID19 AND ITS FALLOUT AGAINST THE MAN...THATS LIKE FOURTH GRADE LEVEL BULLSHITTING...

reply

Oh I know I wonder how COVID19 started? I think it was the cell phone towers.

reply

IT WAS A TARGETED RELEASE BY THE CHINESE...CHINA'S OWN FLIGHT LOGS AND INFORMATION LEAKS PROVE THAT WITHOUT A DOUBT...LIKE TRUMP OR NOT...HE HAS DONE AS DECENT A JOB UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES AS ANYONE COULD HAVE...AND HE HAS BEEN HANDCUFFED AND HARASSED EVERY STEP OF THE WAY...

reply

That was a joke...

reply

AS ARE ANY INTERACTIONS IVE HAD WITH YOU.

reply

You sure? Have you enjoyed this discussion?

reply

I HATE POLITICS.I DIDNT VOTE FOR THE BLONDE WITCH OR THE EVIL ORANGE MAN...THE RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF NONSENSICAL GARBAGE POSTED CAN GET TO BE TOO MUCH THOUGH...

reply

Fair enough.

reply

FYI this idiot just likes to go around saying the opposite of whatever I say, he doesn't actually believe anything he says, he's just trying to get a rise out of people. It's very childish.

reply

President-elect Joe Biden says Americans won't be forced to take a coronavirus vaccine when one becomes available in the US.

oops. he lied! lol

maybe you shouldn't make a promise you possibly can't keep?

reply

See look here is the difference between me and you. That was a lie. See did I deflect to Trump? I can point to a lie Trump told but that does not cover up the lie Biden told. If this was you you would go well yeah but the democrats lied about this. You do this as a means to downplay or excuse what your camp is doing. That is not right and you know it.

reply

yes, it was a lie. thats the whole point. again, thats the game...

brobeans, it all politics. they say what we want to hear.

reply

Just like how Trump promised the wall would be completed when he was president? Perhaps you shouldn't make a promise you can't keep?

reply

CBP estimates that the Trump administration secured a total of $15 billion in U.S. funds for the project, enough to build 738 miles of wall.

Biden has promised to end the construction when he takes office.

"There will not be another foot of wall constructed on my administration," Biden told reporters in August. "I'm going to make sure that we have border protection, but it's going to be based on making sure that we use high-tech capacity to deal with it. And at the ports of entry—that's where all the bad stuff is happening."


The Biden administration on Thursday authorized completion of the Trump-funded U.S.-Mexico border wall in an open area of southern Arizona near Yuma, where four wide gaps make it among the busiest corridors for illegal crossings.


oops, looks like Biden lied too....

thats the game brobeans....


for the win! lolz
Mexico agrees to provide $1.5 billion to help U.S. manage migrants on southern border.

also keep in my mind that Trump got this done while being viciously attacked daily by Nancy "saggy boobs" Pelosi.

reply

Why aren't you happy about Biden continuing Trump's wall? It's what you want.

reply

I am happy, just think its funny they want to finish the wall after experiencing a surge of illegals in DC.

there is nothing wrong with having secure borders and enforcing the laws.

reply

I agree. Let's hope Biden secures our southern borders.

reply

We can only hope at this point.

reply

Illegal immigrants are the not the big issue in the country. Turn off Fox news. There are things which make that a simple drop in the bucket.

reply

if its not a problem, then I assume you are welcoming illegals to stay in your home?

if illegals are not a big deal and walls are racist, then why is Joe finishing Trumps wall?

Mayor Bowser of DC requested help for all the illegals.

https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/dc-mayors-request-for-national-guard-to-help-with-migrants-denied-by-dept-of-defense/3126302/

D.C.’s mayor had requested the activation of the D.C. National Guard last month, citing a “humanitarian crisis” that had reached a “tipping point,” according to letters obtained by News4. Bowser asked for help in a letter to Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin’s office July 19 and to White House aides July 22.

Pentagon rejects DC mayor’s request for National Guard to assist with migrants arriving in the nation’s capital

as doogie would say, oops! winning?!

reply

Yep I actually had an illegal immigrant stay in my home who is one of my closest friends to this day. He has never collected welfare and broken any law other than crossing illegally. I knew that talking point was coming. Any others you want to throw at me?

reply

just one? what about all the thousands that are illegally crossing everyday. this conversation is getting dumb, he didnt break any laws except being an illegal. lol

reply

Nope actually his family as well. Do I have all the money in the world to allow this? You know that is not possible. Compare that to the entire country. Immigration is not as big of a deal as Foxnews has made it. Tell me does law come before morality?

reply

what law, that we must obey the law? how are we supposed to help tens of thousands of illegals? if Joe would enforce the law, then there wouldnt be a problem.

reply

No answer my question does law come before morality?

reply

Your concession is noted.

reply

Your concession is noted.

reply

haha I just said that. nice come back

reply

Did the wall get finished when Trump said it would? Nope it did not so that was a lie.

reply

he was working on it but was being blocked the dems everyday. its hard to get something done when people are trying to illegally remove you from office.

Joe will finish Trumps wall though, even though he said he wouldnt. so he lied.

reply

Does not matter he promised it would be done while he was in. It was not therefore that was a like ooops...

reply

like I said, he was working on it. but didnt get to finish because of a fraudulent election. Joe is going to finish the wall, even though walls are racist.

reply

He promised it would get built by his term in office. That was a lie. Shouldn't he not make promises he can't keep? Also I do not believe the election was stolen. Until there is concrete undeniable evidence that occurred I do not believe it. They have not proven he would have won therefore you have no grounds to claim he would have.

reply

He was doing his best, but got voted out because of a fraudulent election. Joe lied and said he would not build the wall but he is. Walls are racist btw.

reply

Does not matter that was a lie. If I promise I will deliver a gallon of milk to somebody and it does not happen that was a lie. It does not matter if I had to go through hell to do it if it does not get done then it was a lie. Trump lied about that. Do not cover up for him.

reply

Joe biden lied to, he said walls are racist but is building Trumps big beautiful wall.

reply

Does not matter that does not cover up Trump's lie simply because Biden lied. Trump lied nothing you say about Biden or anybody else changes this fact.

reply

Your concession is noted.

reply

hahahahahah this has to be the most insane mental gymnastics ive ever read.

reply

Maybe people should not have bugged him about it, or the wall would exist!

reply

In what way does that have any bearing on the wall being built?

reply

What bearing? If he's constantly being opposed and has to keep making a stance, how does that not have a bearing?

reply

It sounded like you were saying that by people asking him about it, it was keeping him from getting it built.

reply

I understand; I should have used a stronger word than "bugged".

reply

I don't know but I wish they would build a wall around Trump!

reply

Why, slimone...need to cross the border in a hurry?

reply

They did - it's a chainlink fence around the White House.

reply

And the caravans of drug-dealing, murdering, Mexican reprobates? Weren't they on the brink of invasion?

I remember a distinct panic being tweeted up about this great threat. It must have resolved itself. How nice.

reply

The caravan turned around when the 2018 election was over. Like magic!

reply

It's around the White House didn't you hear lol

reply

Oh yeah that is right. So my bad I guess he did not lie lol.

reply

When he's 90-years-old, we'll be put in a home and we'll build a wall around his bed and room. Haha

reply

I doubt he'll live that long with that daily McDonald's diet of his.

reply

People don't do what they don't want to do...

https://dailyutahchronicle.com/2019/09/11/a-nation-of-privilege-not-law-the-case-of-sholom-rubashkin/

In 2008, Rubashkin was the target of what was at the time the largest workplace ICE raid in United States history. These hundreds of high-powered politicians and lawyers bent over backward to commute a sentence of a criminal, scoffing at the work of 900 ICE agents. These agents descended on the plant with helicopters and buses in tow to detain 398 illegal employees of mostly South American origin.

The purported defender of law enforcement and immigration officers, Trump blatantly contradicted his own rhetoric by commuting this sentence. Trump claims to fight for American jobs but has aided a man who exploited our system and hundreds of illegal immigrants (including children) instead of legally hiring American workers.

reply

Trump tore down the walls around Sholom Rubashkin.
