Gov. Greg Abbott’s border wall will take around 30 years and $20 billion to build

Small government fiscal conservatives oppressing people with bullshit government projects using YOUR hard-earned tax dollars at it again.
 
No, 58 miles of new wall was built. Repairs were done to old wall, just as in previous administrations. Not much to show for the massive amount of money that was allotted to him....by Americans, not Mexico.
False! The reality is that 458 miles of new wall was built, all but 50 or so miles replaced existing wall that was of much inferior design and was constantly compromised. New wall is new wall. Deal with it.
 
The reality is that 458 miles of new wall was built during Trump's first time. Old inferior existing wall at the time does not cancel that out.
And repairs and maintenance on existing walls has taken place with each and every administration, Democrat and Republican alike.
So by your strange logic all Presidents have built new wall?
New wall means wall where none existed before.
And for that Trump built slightly less than 50 miles at around $20 million per mile.

New wall means newly contructed wall. If you have a white picket fence in front of your house and you replace it with a chain link fence, it's all new construction, right. You cannot subtract the area where the old picket fence existed and claim that no new fense was built.

Wrong! 458 miles of new wall was constructed. The old wall has either been torn down or will be. You can stop playing pretend, now.

Elect Trump and it'll be done in a few years.
You got first response, bonus rubles...

Why didn’t he do it last time?
 

Nancy Pelosi had no say in the matter for 2 years. Your party co trolled both houses of congress and the presidency.

So I’ll ask again, why didn’t he do it last time?

Trump never had the support of Congress during his entire term.

He’s such an incompetent leader he couldn’t even get his own party to support his policies? 😂

Why do you think he will do anything he has already promised but failed to deliver last time, this time?

Contol of both houses of congress does not mean you can get everything you want. Ever heard of the filibuster? Chuckles Schumer had all the power he needed to prevent full funding of the all.

If you are an effective leader, of course it does.

Instead of wasting their efforts giving the rich another welfare handout, they should have seen to the border.
Chuckles Schumer had all the power he needed to prevent full funding of the all.
Nope. Republicans wasted their way around the filibuster (reconciliation) by giving out welfare handouts to the rich again instead of seeing to the border. This is because they do not care what so ever about the border. It’s why they agreed to the bipartisan border bill, and then Trump told them to kill it so he can campaign on it.

This seems a very difficult concept for cultists to understand.

Donny Trump already built a "big beautiful border wall" across our Southern Border and Mexico paid for it.

What is Gov. Greg "Big Orange Balls" Abbott think he is doing down in Texas?
 
And he did very well.
How so? Trump promised that Mexico was going to pay for it. Instead it was paid through U.S Tax dollars, and we had the longest government shut down of all-time. People starved. People couldn't finish their clinical trials. All because of Trump's bad policy. Are you really proud of that?
Just think what Trump could have done if he had a Congress supporting his efforts.
I am all for the great wall of Trump. It just should have been done with congressional support.

And it’s all getting holes cut in it.

By $100 angle grinders.


“The Washington Post obtained unpublished U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) maintenance records that showed that drug and people smugglers sawed through new sections of wall built during the Trump administration 3,272 times between 2019 and 2021.”
 
Just think what Trump could have done if he had a Congress supporting his efforts.

Trump owned Congress between 2016 and 2018.

- He shrugged you off and did not "lock her up."
- He shrugged you off and did absolutely nothing in the way of creating border security legislation.
- He shrugged you off and did absolutely nothing to "drain the swamp."

In fact, this swamp creator mocked you by perverting the tax code for the rich, which contributed towards 33% of this national debt ($9.8T). That is all the GOP cared about.
In fact, as he raged on about an "invasion" of "rapists and murders," and he didn't close the border in 2017, 2018, 2019, or 2020 as millions poured in.
In fact, he just sacrificed your butthole to the legion of Mexican "rapists and murderers" in order to create a bogus platform for his campaign, didn't he?

It's like, no matter how hard he tries to prove how little he deserves your personal religious-like worship, you just can't bring yourself to accept what you are worth to him. You are devoted to America's greatest proven traitor, a documented sex offender and pedophile who routinely partied with Epstein and his teenage girls, and a debt creator who just promised Big Business that he will give the rich even more obnoxious tax cuts, increasing the federal debt even more, if they only give him campaign money. You are a means to his personal end, and his only goal, again, is to escape justice and to use the Office to make more personal money from foreign governments. He proved this to you for four years.

And then there was the 'repeal and replace' promise.

Words are all that matters to cultists. What actually happens doesn't count if you can just get the words right.

No. He didn't.

The GOP Elites in the House...and especially in the Senate...were opposed to Trump during his entire term.

They still are, but there are less of them in Congress now.
