In Capitol Hill Meetings, Donald Trump Reveals His Top Priorities I don't know if this is posted anywhere else, so I will just go ahead and create the thread. Looks like Obamacare will soon be a thing of the past and the wall may become a reality at some point.
I wonder if the wall does happen, how good the pay will be for the workers. Because, I'm tired of 11.10 an hour lol
The irony (for me) is that while I consider myself a moderate, I have long advocated building a wall, if for no other reason than it would be a massive public works project that would provide tens of thousands of jobs just in constructing it and then patrolling it. Unfortunately, we'd probably hire Mexicans to do the work......

I live close enough to the border and see the wall often enough. I think it's a national disgrace. If they start going house to house hassling people, and deporting millions, it will be the most awful thing the nation has done since FDR rounded up the Japanese. I'm not interested in hassling Muslims, either. If I were Trump, I would start by ending the massive government spying programs.
You understand the difference, right? The Berlin Wall was to keep people in, and a wall on our border will be so that we can control who comes in?
This. Open borders is one thing when it comes to letting in old Muslim women and small children from Syria. It's another when you've got the world's most powerful and violent Drug Cartels on your doorstep. If I were him, the first thing I'd do is: -Start cutting back the Federal Government. Get rid of pork and unnecessary programs. -Cut back the spy programs like Denny said, and dismantle the BATFE. -Organize our Military so that we can spend the budget appropriately and efficiently in the best way possible without sacrificing our military strength. If this means investing in new programs and getting rid of out-dated equipment and materials, then so be it. -Legalize MJ at the Federal Level. -Reorganize the Tax Code for efficiency's sake, and fix our crumbling infrastructure (highways and bridges). And the biggest one of all.... -NO MORE MONEY TO COUNTRIES THAT HATE US. Middle East; go fuck yourself. All of you assholes.
I'm in favor of keeping Muslims out, and also illegal immigrants. As far as deporting, limit it to people with a violent criminal record.
You are right about that. My bad by linking Trump's wall with the Berlin Wall. Yet, I doubt a wall is going to stop the Mexicans and other immigrants from trying to find ways over, under, around, or through it.
let me guess, honestly. "After consulting with his team, trump has decided the best way to make America great again is to: End bank regulation. Green light whatever pipeline. Pay farmers not to grow corn." The wall is fucking dumb as shit and never going to happen. the fact that people fell for it is pathetic. Seriously.
A wall is just so old school. We have technology that can do the job way cheaper. Besides, a wall might keep us in if we need to evacuate. Seriously, we don't need to build a wall. We just need to make it so they don't want to come here or stay if they already are.
If our govt builds a wall they'll probably put barbed wire at the top. Knowing them, they'll angle it North.
