        When the GOP proposes kicking out white European models, I'll believe they're serious about immigration.

        18 Billion Dollars is better spent on infrastructure. Bridges, Highways, Tunnels, etc.... Big border wall = Big waste of $$

        Maybe he can pay for the wall. He is like a very smart businessman who has made millions of dollars.

        Trump really doesn't care about the wall as much as he cares about his kickback from that $18B.

        $18 Billion dollar wall. Can be defeated by $2000 in ladders from Home Depot. Or a $20 Shovel. Great investment.

        35 ft high? Check. That's not crazy. Not crazy at all. Trump, in generous negotiating mood: "Okay Chuck and Nancy, tell you what: half the Dreamers, like let's say the women, can stay for another year in exchange for a trillion bucks towards the wall. Sound good?"

        Someone please remind Trump that Mexico is paying for the wall. He promised it like a million times. He must’ve just forgotten or something.
