Can anyone provide any detail as to where the “wall” is being built?

Well, good. He doesn't need to call a national emergency. We can skip straight ahead to the lawsuits. :peace

On an unrelated note, has Trump's false and misleading statements broken 9000 yet?

If he keeps repeating the same ones, do they add to the total?

There are two tallies. One counts the distinct lies. One counts all recycled lies as separate lies. Both are astronomical.

Ya know ... we're inviting his defenders to drop into the thread to say something delicious like "no, it's only 7000 lies ... not even 10 per day ... did you hear about the time Obama said '57 states'?"
 
Didn’t he already make this claim about a year or so ago? How can we start something that was already started?

Who cares. The wall wasn't given funding. That's all that matters.

If he and his cult want to engage in fantasies instead shredding of the Constitution, I'm all for it.

Trump has tried to confuse this issue all to heck. Trump has no money appropriated for new Wall or new Border Barrier. He has money from the FY18 budget for repairing and refurbishing and filling gaps in the existing 670-700 mile fencing in some cases. None of that is new Wall funding. It is funding that has its genesis in the 2006 Border Fence Act. In fact, Trump is restricted to fencing solutions like Bollard for that refurbishment and gap filling or exactly what is already in place if they want to repair what is there.

Trump cannot install solid construction Wall for this purpose whether he wants to or not and he cannot extend construction beyond the repairs, refurbishments and gap filling I mentioned above. Trump has alternately said they were already in construction on new Wall and then said they were not in construction on new Wall. The former is not correct. The latter is.

Repeat, Trump and his administration (DHS/CBP) has no funding for new Wall or any new Border Barrier at this point. He can yammer about already being in construction till he is blue in the face or till his combover flops, whichever comes first. He is when discussing this activity in terms of new Wall construction, once again LYING through his teeth.
