That's probably far more work that got done in a weekend than bashy/pooty will do in his entire sad lifetime.

This tells me you are really mad it was done at all.

Especially since he ignores key details, mainly that this was over a weekend on *rough* terrain using funding from donations.

A government funded project could no doubt bring in more workers and resources and thus complete stuff even faster.

Waste of time and money, my ass. Border patrol agents are on record saying that a wall would help immensely. Sorry, but I put more stock in what they say than what you do, Bernie supporter. What's a waste of money is making taxpayers pay for little entitled brats' student loan debts.

Excluding impossible terrain (that would require demolishing mountains or land development for building the fence), this puts the cost for the wall between $8-$10 billion.

If we assume 1 mile is built every day minus about 300 miles of what I call impossible wall terrain:

1,954 miles - 300 miles = 1,654 miles


1,654 miles * $6 million = $9,924 billion


1,654miles/365.25 days = 4.53 years



So the project will cost $10 billion over 4.5 years, there about.



That's doable.




Still a massive waste of money, time, and effort. I'd rather we help our veterans with that money. It least it would go to help people who actually need the help instead of building a useless wall that literally does nothing but waste more of my tax dollars.

Yeah definitely doable and within our lifetime as well.

10 billion does not seem like a lot in the grand scheme of things given our budget. Weren't dems at one point going to give Trump like 25 billion?

What should really be done is that all the Walls around Rich Neigbhorhoods should be pulled down. Also the Walls around Political Figures Houses.

Like Pelosies.

Make them Live like Everyone Else.

Equality and all that.

You know EQUALITY.

That thing people like Robbie and Bashy are against others having!

A mile over the span of a single weekend on rough terrain. What's the issue?

If you really think this mile could be replicated over and over within the same time-frame/budget, when reality is, the cost would go up and up and the 30+ billion cited long ago is still likely correct, you're just high on Trump's farts again.

30+ billion and it wouldn't do much. /reality

I agree it wouldn't be the same time frame or budget, I'd imagine building over terrain that isn't rough would be cheaper and less time consuming

There is no way that Trump could finish the wall in the short time before the next election but he will most likely win and it can definitely be finished by 2025 when he finally leaves office. Also, this one mile section that has been built is not by any means the only part that has been constructed so far lol. Other parts have already been constructed.

Border Patrol agents, who are directly interested in keeping their jobs, who want billions injected into their budgets, are stating that a wall would help them immensely?

I'm shocked, I tell you! Utterly shocked!

But the Cato Institute did a very lengthy analysis of this and you should read it before rabidly support large wastes of money like this:

You're right. We should go with your idea and give all of your highly-educated, highly skilled jobs to the Chinese and Indians. What do you want to call your new country run by China and India? The United Nations of China, India, and America? UNCIA? Has an odd ring to it.

I am against government wasting money. Like when we spent money to study the mating habits of quails on coke. Or using leaf blowers on lizards.

You have said you'd rather money go to vets, fair enough. Why not pull aid we give to shithole countries and spend it on our vets? How much money do we spend on foreign aid for medical supplies and all this shit? I firmly believe our vets are more important than someone else in a foreign country who needs medical supplies.

So I definitely support taking care of our own first.

^ NOT Coping

It's already been shown that radical leftists do not respect vets although many of them may pretend to when it suits their narrative.

Trumpers segueing from their ridiculous wall to pretending they care about veterans. Lolz.

"He's not a war hero. He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured." -Trump, shitting on every US POW.

As opposed to using the corpse of McCain as a cudgel against Trump like leftists did...cuz they sure as hell care about vets

Actually, they would become more efficient as things went along. They'd find efficiencies and improvements as the plans and implementation efforts improved.

Likely, the cost per mile would approach closer to $3 million per mile than the initial $6 million per mile. It's just how large efforts like these go under proper management.

However, you and I both know corruption, squandering, and mismanagement are far more likely than a properly managed project.


Your cost is probably right.

TIL: Calling out Trump for still attacking McCain post death is the problem, not Trump's shitty actions

Does Every post that Robbie make include the words Trump and or Trumpers?

No Rob, today you learned that leftists used the corpse of McCain as a cudgel against Trump cuz they are that deranged. You are welcome for the clarification

Large projects like this tend to only increase in cost, despite the more-efficient-as-we-go factor, due to all the unknowns that will come up along the way.

And agreed, "corruption, squandering, and mismanagement" would be a majorly huge factor which would only increase with the delays.

It's not my cost, the 30+ billion was the CBO, no?

Oh robbie... when left-wing fantatics disrespect our flag and our anthem at football games by taking a knee instead of standing because of their perceived "oppression" it is disrespecting vets also and shitting all over the sevice they gave to this great nation.


Go ahead now and try to pretend otherwise as I know you no doubt will... it's ok.

He's gonna try to say it wasn't about the vets, even though they still continued to kneel once they had more than enough attention on them...and even though 99% of them took no action during the off season to fight for the cause they claimed made them kneel in the first place lol.

I agree fully. This is exactly what we should be doing.

Here's my list of things related to this:

1. Dissolve ICE.
2. Dissolve DHS.
3. Stop with 95-98% of foreign aid.
4. Don't build the stupid wall (read the Cato article).
5. Take down almost all foreign military bases and bring our people and stuff back home.
6. Cut the military budget in half (actually, it's cut it by 60%).

I'd add: remove all public funding from any college with shit like "free speech zones".

...or "safe space zones."

Its obvious that this really the people off who said the gofundme wall was a scam.

They did it over a holiday weekend on rough terrain

Thats called efficiency.

Oh really? So not much planning went into this? Meaning, there's plenty of efficiency to be improved on this effort?

Plenty, literally Steve Bannon got involved and made it happen. This company who did the wall is very good at what they do.

Especially since veteran's are getting a lot less now. My own grandfather was forced to go to another hospital after a fall, because there simply wasn't room at the VA medical center. Guess who was on the hook for that?


Not the VA.

Probably because it's just an empty PR stunt to give Trump and his cultist something to rant about. Which of course that was 100% successful, so kudos to shitboi Bannon I guess.

So, 1 mile of "that wall will never be built" over a weekend is just a PR stunt.

I cant imagine not have a fence between my neighbors house. I dont see why people care about fencing off the country.

It's pretty obvious why, TI. They know that a real , formidable barrier, unlike the shitty one we have now that is a joke, will put a huge dent in illegals crossing into our country. The democrats know that w/out those illegals they'd never ever win an election.


No doubt some leftist will now say "illegals can't vote". To which I would reply: what you mean is, they can't legally vote. And regardless of whether or not they are actually illegaly voting in elections (i think it's pretty obvious that many have been for a while now), they still unfairly increase the number of electorate votes a state gives to the winner of said state. So yes, illegals do have a strong influence on the outcome of our elections.

Nancy doesn't understand the difference between one mile of wall, and an entire f'n wall.



I mean, it takes generations to build a single bridge. Maybe in Nancy's world, where government has an unlimited budget and no regulatory tape to cut through, this sucker can get built in less time then it takes the Government to build LITERALLY EVERYTHING ELSE.

Fencing is mostly for privacy, if your neighbors wanted to get in and they were physically capable (not old, handicapped, injured etc), they'd go over your fence.

A Mexican family travels for several days for hundreds of miles to get to the US-Mexico border: on foot, by car, and by truck. They get to the border and are stopped by an 8 foot wall. Faced with this barrier, the father considers his situation...


"OH SHIT! WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO, MARIA? WE TRAVELED ALL THIS WAY TO BE THWARTED BY AN 8 FOOT CEMENT WALL! WE ARE DOOMED! DOOOOOOOOMED!"

"Calm down, Guapo. We can just climb over."

"OH! THANK YOU SO MUCH, MI ESPOSA, YOU ARE THE BESTEST MOSTEST AWESOMEST WIFEY! JUEVOS, NALGAS, CHICHIS!!!"



Epilogue:
Guapo and his family were eventually caught by the Gestapo due to Guapo's inability to use an inside voice.

*swaying back and forth*

All we are saying...is give walls a chance

the assumptions that gofundme dollars would be consistent over 4+ years after it's launch made me chuckle.

Well you are a Massive Pot Head so I can see you getting the giggles quite often and to very simple things...cause ya know...POT.

DDM all us Trumpers have to do is put in $80 each and we can build the whole wall. I already donated $20, Ill donate the rest.

My neighbors are really cool, but I could not live next to them without a 7 ft fence.

I want to buy a PS5, a replacement gaming PC, and a massage chair. I place more value on those things than the wall.

I am serious when I ask you this question: is it okay if I don't support the wall and, instead, only save and buy those things?

I gave $80 to a homeless vet instead. At least that's what his cardboard sign said.
