Here is a simple website that shows money going to other Countries. It seems the Democrats had no problem giving Pakistan billions of dollars when Obama was President. Yet they can't seem to find 5 billion to secure our border. Interesting?
Mexico is paying for the wall. Trump promised!
According to Wikifacts, Mexico will be paying for the wall and border security through the USMCA.
shareAccording to Trump, Mexico would be paying for a wall.
Trump suggested a one time payment of $5-10 billion done by wire transfer.

I'm going to assume he is doing Putin's bidding planned in one of their secret meetings. Recession is coming thanks to the Trump Shutdown.
Agreement highlights include:
•Creating a more level playing field for American workers, including improved rules of origin for automobiles, trucks, other products, and disciplines on currency manipulation.
•Benefiting American farmers, ranchers, and agribusinesses by modernizing and strengthening food and agriculture trade in North America.
•Supporting a 21st Century economy through new protections for U.S. intellectual property, and ensuring opportunities for trade in U.S. services.
•New chapters covering Digital Trade, Anticorruption, and Good Regulatory Practices, as well as a chapter devoted to ensuring that Small and Medium Sized Enterprises benefit from the Agreement.
While the United States, Mexico, and Canada have concluded a new, rebalanced agreement, NAFTA currently remains in effect. The USMCA can come into effect following the completion of TPA procedures, including a Congressional vote on an implementing bill.
With the increased opening of markets to US businesses, more profits can be made. With increased profits, Trump will in this case claim it's paying for the wall (even though it really isn't), is how I see it going. Problem is, unless congress approves of this it's a non-deal. NAFTA still remains...
There was also the ridiculous "pay-to-play" crapola going on when Hillary was Secretary of State. From what I read, communication was AWFUL in that dept. Often the right hand didn't know what the left hand was doing. There were people who tried for months to talk to Mrs. Clinton about regular, everyday stuff, and yet couldn't get an appointment for ages. But then, the Prince of Bahrain drops a few million dollars into the Clinton slush fund---I mean Clinton Foundation, and he can see her immediately! And he wasn't the only one. There were quite a few people from both the US and other countries who generously donated to the Clintons during the hag's tenure as Sec. of State.
The donations suspiciously dried up when she failed to become president. I wonder why?
Donations going to Trump.
shareThe donations dried up and the Clinton Foundation was shut down. Where did all that money go?
shareThey shut it down? Really? I thought it was still around, faking being a charity.
There's also the question of how so many politicians (I will be honest here) on both sides of the aisle that come to Washington, and end up retiring millionaires. Last time I checked, a govt. salary, even for high-ranking officials, would not make them much more than upper-middle-class, (and considering how expensive it is to live in the D.C. area, I'm not surprised at that). But still, such a salary doesn't turn most people into super-rich elite. So where do they get the extra dough....hmm?
