We need the wall.
Time to make things happen.

We already have fencing where it makes sense. We don’t need more as we get diminishing returns.

Needs a major upgrade. The images of the existing fence are a joke.

So not only do we need an expensive barrier that doesn’t accomplish much we have to rebuild it every 10 years?
Check out the great border security in Derby Line Vermont. I wonder why that area has no big beautiful wall, or fence or artistically designed steel slats?

Also if a “major upgrade” is needed then the projected cost of the border barrier need to be increased substantially because it is currently based off the costs associated with building the existing barrier.

I’ve been gone for a few hours - did Donald close the border yet?
Right, if a president arbitrarily shut down your business and thousands of your coworkers who rely on daily cross border activity, you’d rightly “savaging” him.
Any day the train doesn’t cross the border I’ve got people out of work, for at least two days, and then have to pay them OT the third day to make up for everything. An accidental one car derailment in a Laredo yard cost us buckets of money last month and that wasn’t even a fully delayed day. And we’re only the smallest fish at the near end of the supply chain. Put just one rail yard out of work and watch what those men do. Then watch the domino effect across the chain and what people and families do. Now do the same for road transportation. Then try the same for financial activity.
I dare Trump to see what happens.

Correct, they are funded through DHS… The will receive pay tomorrow but if the shutdown lasts till Jan 15th, they will not be paid…
Toughest border wall in Canada.
I would love for Trump to shut down the border and watch the stock market crash and millions of people lose their jobs.
Yeah that’s my sister…well her husband…

It’s a new day so I must ask once again - has Donald closed the border yet, and if not what is he waiting for?

Border’s still open. Troops are still in Syria. No wall built. No pesos in the gofundme account.
There’s still some folks in the thread carrying the President’s agua.
