No, the $5 billion is merely to begin the project. The entire project is estimated to be at least $25 billion. This is only the first round for the GoFundMe morans.

Don't worry, SDSU, I'm sure you'll have your opportunity to fund Ocasio's Health Care Go-Fund-Me in the near future!

I had to look that one up. Sure, I don't want her to live in a park so I'll contribute.

For many years, people have experienced the same situation when moving to a new city and have borrowed from friends or family. Her setting up fund to pay her rent is ridiculous and is a story that could haunt her in future campaigns.

Focus on wall in Mexico who are more known for their tunnels and going around via the ocean than hopping the wall sou ds like splid research.

Meanwhile why not border up Canada and keep ignoring the sides of the country where they come in from as well?

I guess Mexicans steal our jobs right? Dodnt realize americans would pick strawberries for $25 a day and live in a bunkhouse nor pay $5 a lb for strawberries if they made minimum wage.

This whole ordeal is just to rattle up his voters every time their is a lull. Besides wasnt Mexico paying for it and now he closes the government cause he wants $5 billion for a wall? Haha he lies to your face and you eat it up...Chumps.

Can you imagine Trump becoming POTUS?

Yes.

Joyously yes! Americans are that stupid. Used to just be a stereotype that they were idiots, now there is no denying the truth of it. Endless comedy! Watching his followers inability to recognize the daily radical changes in position, it’s remarkable. Trump owns the government shut down - his supporters love it. The next day he blames the democrats for the shut down, his supporters agree wholeheartedly. A complete and total inability to think. It’s so beautiful. Stupidity at a level almost impossible to imagine. Remember when he bashed Obama for golfing? Now Trump not only golfs more but his personal resorts see amazing profits when he does - and his supporters don’t bat an eye. He’s making himself even richer as he golfs his way through his presidency. The more his supporters lose the more they think they win, it’s the best thing ever!

The stupid thing about Trump's wall is that he's never provided any cost/benifit analysis. His justification is to stop drugs and criminals, but never explains why a wall is the best option. He's said that "without borders, we can't have a country." We'll still have a military so I'm not sure what he means by that. He than compounded the idiocy by promising that Mexicico would pay for the wall.

If he was an astute person he would have put together a committee to analyze different strategies for securing the border and to make recommendations.

In terms of getting elected, the wall/Mexico pays story was brilliant. But it's going take more than just the same BS from his campaign to get it approved by Congress.

What a waste of money. All th lip service about homeless vets, vet suicide and PTSD and you squander your money on this scam.

It is a 100% scam. There is no way that private donations can be given to the government for a specific project. The money cannot be used to hire people to build the all on government property. The only solution is to return the money to the donors, most who do not seem to want their money back. So, all that money ends up staying with the disabled vet who is running the scam. He can do with the money as he pleases.

It’s only a matter of time before we learn how this donated fortune was really spent by its patriotic custodian. But don’t listen to what the MSM says, Trump is god and his word is above all.

The only reason why the far left doesn't want a WALL and only wants "increased border security" through drones, sensors, etc. is this:

A wall is permanent. Once we spend $5,000,000,000 to build it, it is NEVER coming down. It would probably cost a billion to dismantle it. Drones and all other measures can be ended with one stroke of a pen by the next Democratic president. As soon as a Democrat takes the White House (a good possibility in 2024), all of the new "security measures" can end. But if a wall is built, no president, Democrat or Republican, will be able to get rid of it. And this permanent status is the reason the far right wants it.

You think the entire wall can be built for $5 billion? That's cute.

Why are you guys so confident that Mexico WON'T pay for the inevitable wall?

None of us understand the art of the deal that Trump is making behind the scenes.

Trump has never provided a cost and effectiveness analysis of those the two options. Maybe the Democrats are correct in that using technology is the better choice. Regardless, you're assuming Democrats don't want to secure the border. Can you name an influential Democrat that doesn't want to do so?

If Trump is still around I don't see him winning in 2020. He lucked out with Hillary being so unlikable and the server thing. "Build the wall" and "Lock her up" are going to be pretty stale the second time through.

Lol.

I love how Trump ensuring ‘Mexico will pay for the wall!’ to Trump supporters bending over and saying ‘WE will pay for the wall!’

Wake up to reality my friend. The only deals happening behind the scenes are the ones designed to line Trump's pockets and the rest of us will be scammed.

Long term maintenance of a physical wall is where the real costs lay. Border security will be so much more efficient and effective with smart detection systems and fully funded border patrol. A wall is a constant target.

Trumpers think a wall will stop people by itself. No maintenance required. Well, a wall left alone will end up with holes all over the place, and ladders strung over the top. Someone might even get creative and install an pay-to-cross escalator to cross over — likely by an American to make some easy money.
