I don’t think it’s rxwine who has the problem with reading comprehension:

•So far in Trump's presidency, more than 60 miles of existing barriers and fences have been replaced with new wall, according to a Department of Homeland Security official.
•DHS has been referring to replacement wall as "new," but to date, not a single mile of wall has been built where no barrier previously existed. The official did not provide an answer when asked when the first section of "new" wall would be built.

They're tearing down the old
wall (duh) and replacing it
with NEW WALL and will have
450 miles done by the end of
next year. You're just playing
a word game, like walls get
built overnight.

Playing a word game... Kinda like when Donald said Mexico was gonna pay for this dumb thing, eh?

Every day new sections of wall is
erected. It's an ongoing slow
process but it's getting done.

So be because I can break into your house you do not lock the door?

Didn't even have locks for years or take the keys out of the ignition of my vehicles. But that has nothing to do with it.

As we have seen posted here before, the wall isn't about deterring illegals. All it would take to deter illegals is take away the incentives which is far cheaper than this wall, which is obscene.

The recent meat packing plant was a fine example, they arrested a dozen or more immigrants and didn't arrest the employer or asset seize. The wall is a jobs program for friends of the administration, not unlike Cheney's wars. All admins do it, Obama etc.

You know explicitly that the majority of illegals are folks that overstayed their work visa. I'm not interested in having a cheap pissing contest with you AZ.

Placing sanctions on Venezuela, and Obama's coup in Honduras is beta testing for the financials of this bankers wall. Where do you think this 3-20 billion dollars will come from to build it? I know you don't think borrowing another 7 or whatever billion dollars from banks, which adds to the national debt. is good for the economy if it sends home 3-1 illegals. If you want them to "go home", take away the incentive, "on the cheap". And let the animal migrations continue.

Both party's have to keep wages down for campaign contributions. It's always about the money.

Every wall in the world is about
deterring. From the wall around
Israel to the wall in your back yard.
Because they can be breached at
times doesn't mean they aren't
effective.

There are estimated 30 million illegals in the US here now. Add to that Dreamers. Add to that ladders and fences. It's a terrible waste.
