He established HIS policy and went to talk in Mexico ,it STILL isn't a national policy, but a discussion.
THUS legal.

How many times do I have to explain something before it is understood? It is legal for him to talk about the wall but it is illegal to negotiate policy. Now I do have to explain the difference between the two for you?

How nice for Mexico's president to give his permission for us to build something in our country!

WTH?

Just goes to show that he can get things done despite what the media is shoving down our throats!

What has gotten done besides nothing? Whether we could build a wall was never in question. You seem to have forgotten that Donnie said Mexico would pay for that wall.


Why do you hold Trump to much higher standards than you hold Obama who is actually been serving for eight years?

What does Obama have to do with this thread? You are just willfully ignorant of what Obama has done not my problem.

People seem to forget that unless the wall is built on BLM land, that land is owned by private individuals and they will sue to keep that wall from being built across their land.

There will be no wall unless it is on the Mexican side. They won't build it.

Use some common sense for God's sake.


There are a lot of environmental factors too.

Habitats of certain animals for one thing.

Donald Trump claimed Wednesday after a landmark summit with Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto that America's southern neighbor has agreed the U.S. has the right to build a wall along the nations' 2,000-mile border.


Wow, this is huge. Just goes to show that he can get things done despite what the media is shoving down our throats! So much for all the people who constantly parrot that it will never be built!


No one said he couldn't build a wall, we just know Mexico will not pay for it like he has said for months. Donald said "We will build a wall and the Mexican government will pay for it!" The mexican government" the US can build a wall" OF COARSE WE CAN, but Mexico won't pay for it........if we wanted we could build 6 walls, as long as we pay for it.

Wow this is proof of getting things done? No one ever said he didn't have the right to build it, shoot there us already a wall up in some places.
This is proof that Donald asked a question he already knew the answer to.

Trump supporters are like children. They see Trump as some superhero that can just ignore laws and do any thing he wants be cause he has appealed to their sense of what they deem righteous indignation and hatred for the opposition.

Buster DIDN'T say Trump DID break a law. He said negotiating with a foreign government by unauthorized citizens WOULD BE breaking the law.


originally posted by: buster2010
No it wouldn't be because that would be a violation of the Logan act. Trump has no authority to have any kind of negotiation with a foreign government.

I lived on the border. I seriously researched this wall in-depth.

I know how much has been done over the last 8 years to secure the southern border and entry points.

This would be a massive, exorbitantly expensive, and completely unrealistic project.

And that's only the southern border.

We have 2 extensive coastal borders too (plus northern). Submarines anyone?

Yeah if they had to use submarines to transport drugs across the border rather than loading up a truck then it's a huge win for both countries.

The cost of drugs would skyrocket

Speed boats, submarines, catapults, tunnels, etc are already being used.

Are you one of those who wants it legal to open fire on anyone trying to cross the border?

I'm one of those that wants the drugs to stop coming. Trumps wall will be 40 ft tall and tunnel proof he claims.

That's not an easy thing to get through, planes and subs are more expensive and easier to catch.

Drones are already being used for smuggling huge amounts of drugs.



How will a 40ft wall stop them? How anyone can be so ignorant of modern technology is a mystery to me. That includes that dumbass Trump.

You all need to try and keep up.
The wall won't and can't only be on the American side. The geography and terrain make it next to impossible to build on just one side. Unless we decide to dam the Rio Grand of course. It has to be a dual effort like Trump has said oh about a thousand times to date. Like when he threatened economic sanctions if they refused to negotiate. Yet it seems to slip past all you. Mexico would pay for their side just like we would pay for ours.

You also need to keep up.

Building that wall across private land will be tied up in the courts for decades and by that time Trump will have been forgotten into the scrap heap of fools.

Sure, if America wants a wall built who's stopping us? We have every right to build one. Did this go over Trump supporters heads? The Mexican President clearly made it a point of not saying Mexico will pay for it!


What would have been HUGE is if the Mexican President would have said "yes we'll pay for it, and by the way how high do you want it?"

Research exactly what it would take to build that wall.

Really, seriously, research it. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
