RNC has adopted " We will build a wall" into their 2016 campaign platform, Who will pay ?

They failed to mention how much it will cost and how the wall will be paid for !

  • My guess is they will pull it out of SS & Medicare, then cut benefits to the disabled and elderly...the people who need it the most so they can say they have a balanced budget. But it's all good, they're cutting taxes on the rich and corporations so at least they will be able to spend all their time and money making jobs for the elderly and disabled living on the street or in substandard housing eating dog food.

    From day 1, Donald Trump was going to make Mexico pay...... More hollow rhetoric ?

  • What do you think? That won't happen and I'd be dubious of anything that falls out of Donald Trumps mouth.

    But all the poorly educated knuckle-draggers were orgasmic  when Trump made that promise !

    What I find a most delicious irony is that the party of bible-thumpers has completely forgotten about the whole Babel story.

    It will cost less than what is going on right now.

    And that is relevant because...............................................................................  It isn't as far a building a wall is concerned.  The important thing here is that God made the people speak many languages so they couldn't communicate.  Seems God didn't go for global crap; neither do I.

    No.  He didn't even want them to communicate.  Try reading the text if you're having trouble understanding.  It's not too hard, really.

    You'd think they'd be a little more mindful of how eerily similar blind nationalism is to blind globalism. But yeah, you got my point.

    Globalism is just nationalism on a larger scale, truth be told.

    I support the unrestricted right to travel. I also don't think a wall is actually going to keep people from crossing the border. Seems rather short-sighted to me.

  • I'll build the wall for free. I know many others would probably volunteer.

    I think he meant by bringing jobs back here from Mexico, but I'm not really a mind reader.  The tax will not fly and why should it.  Why worry so much about a rifle that is nowhere close to the most powerful one sold?   Why worry about it at all, really.  But I know, NBC said so, so some must comply.  Rant on.

    I very rarely watch anything on TV broadcast networks.  NBC news seems to be the one that makes up the news as they go.  I can see that from looking at the website.
