If I had property on the border I would have already built a wall/fence around my property. I currently have a fence on 3 sides of my property. But I would be willing to sell for the proper price.
The complaints I've heard from property owners, is that the wall isn't ON the border. So the government is building the wall down "the middle" of people's property - denying use of property without compensation.
All for a wall that can be easily cut, climbed, or tunneled under, and which does nothing to stop the large majority of illegal immigrants who come to the USA legally then overstay their visas.
Only a mind as brilliant as President P***y-Grabber's could come up with a scheme like that...
1) Even if The Horrid Evil Commie Democrap Nancy Pelosi did advocate for removing the existing border wall, that would be almost as dumb because removing walls costs money, as well.
2) Were Congresswoman Pelosi to advocate for such a thing, it would be extremely politically damaging because, as I noted above, people are extremely irrational about the border wall. No matter how often you explain to them what a stupid wasteful exercise it is, it remains extremely popular. Whatever people think of Pelosi's ideological positions, she is at least somewhat competent at political maneuvering.
3) If MAGAts have complaints about the wall not being as big and expensive as they'd like (I disagree with that, but that's a separate issue), they should be excoriating President Trump. Before he stole reallocated about $5 billion for The Wall, he could have signed a deal with Congress to spend $25 billion. But then white supremacist Stephen Miller got in his ear, and Trump blew up the deal Senators Schumer and Graham set up. This was back when Trump made his "s***hole countries" comment.
Which is larger: Five billion dollars or 25 billion dollars? Apparently MAGAts can't do math....
