He’s been trying, but DEMs keep saying they aren’t interested in anything he has to say.
The problem is no one knows, including the administration requesting the funds, nor the
Congress whom the funds are being requested from.
Serious question, why do you think they have held zero hearings on the wall, its effectiveness, or what the overall costs would be? Is it possible that they know if they did hold hearings, it would expose the wall as the wasteful boondoggle most Americans believe it would be?
Let me know when you are ready do discuss the subject matter.
Pssst - that was money they already passed. He already had the authority to use that money. He just didn’t.
Actually that isn’t the case at all.
There are experts on both sides of this argument.

And there isn’t on building a border wall?
Bias polls? That’s all you’ve got?
The FACT is that most polls since Trump has been elected, even right-leaning pollsters like Rasmussen, show that the American people don’t want to pay for the wall, and that the government should not be shut down over it.

I signaled I’m interested in discussing the subject matter by making a substantive reply. You misinterpreted it and I asked for clarification.
To which you declined.
It is you who are deciding not to have a substantive discussion.
DHS secretary is an expert. Pelosi isn’t. Pelosi is shutting down any and all dialog, implying she knows better, when she actually knows nothing about the topic.

I would be up for trying e-verify.
You and I have been around the block a few times and I know how you operate. No more…………
If I misinterpreted your statement, then clarify what you meant to say. Otherwise go away.

Sounds like we need to have some hearings… I would love hear about Nielsen’s credentials on building a wall… What is her background?
Let me know when you want to have a serious discussion. Otherwise we are done.

My statement needed no clarification. Building a wall in one part of the border shifts crossings to another part of the border. Since there will be no wall from sea to shining sea, you’ve just reshuffled where crossings happen. This is exactly what we’ve seen from the hundreds of miles of wall that we have built.
I don’t see how that’s a confusing statement or one in support of more wall.
If you wanted clarification, please just ask what point you want clarification on rather than making some odd question.
We are done, unless you have something of substance to add to the discussion.

See above.
Are you able to provide any substance to your statement or is that just a standard you hold others to?
There are many areas where a natural barrier would discourage mass migration of illegals. That is really the objective.
All other areas would get a physical barrier of some kind. Thus your statement would seem to argue for more physical barrier.
I’ve seen nothing that indicates what I stated was inaccurate. But I would love to see what you’ve seen that informs your perspective.
And why did you not respond to the remainder of the post?
