There is plenty of one thing we can make the border wall with.

Let's make the border wall out of Russian collusion.
People just can't get over it at all.

With the presidency and both houses controlled by republicants, they again prove they can’t do anything. Not even enough republicants to fund his wall, everyone but the orange baboon and his base know the wall is a waste of time and money.

You sound more and more like a Russian troll

Is it stupidly or dishonesty that causes each of y’all to keep bringing up this risibly false claim.

WNC Ralf Loc: Candler NC, in the mountains!

Is it your ignorance that lets you read with NO comprehension? Until January the republicants control both the Senate, the House, and the presidency for TWO YEARS and did not get funding for his insane wall? Looks like there was not enough ignorant republican v**es to get it done. Not all republicans are as ignorant, make that STUPID, enough to v**e for funding of a waste of money wall! By the way, what does risibly mean? Not in my dictionary.

Great idea. Gather up all those Russian colluders, starting at the top, and bury them along the border.

That would be obummer and Hillary.

I'm reprinting this story that was originally posted by Rose. I think she posted it to illustrate how getting "free stuff" leads to dependency on the government. But, the story is a two edged sword.....it has two lessons.

"The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been shot while fighting c*******ts in his native country who were trying to o*******w his country's government and install a new c*******t regime. In the midst of his story, he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked: "Do you know how to catch wild pigs?"
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said that it was no joke. "You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come every day to eat the free food".

"When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence". "They get used to that and start to eat again.
You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side". "The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat that free corn again. You then slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd".

"Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity."
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening in America . The government keeps pushing us toward C*******m/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare entitlements, medicine, drugs, etc., while we continually lose our freedoms, just a little at a time as the government forces us to participate in many of these programs whether or not we want to."

The first lesson is that government programs provide us with security at the cost of some of our freedom. The second lesson is that when we build fences (or walls) around us for security, we also lose some of our freedom. Trump is eagerly trying to build a wall around us for security. Franklin was incorrectly quoted as saying (but it's a good quote nonetheless), "Those that are willing to trade freedom for security deserve neither."

It seems most of our differences here in the Attic is determining how much of each we want. Some want freedom and some want security. Since we can't have both, we have to compromise. Therein lies the problem and is why we the Attic is alive and well.

Only if you have just begun to read him. Otherwise, he sounds like a Russian troll, but no more so than he has for a while.

Of course we could make it out of Trump Lies there is a surplus of those! And, we could use Mexico will pay for the wall as mortar!

Architect1776 Loc: In my mind

The President has not lied.
You have NO proof of actual lies.
If your standard for lies is as we all know it to be then obummer, f**e news, hillary and bubba, pelosi and schumer are telling lies each time their lips move.

Except when it doesn't. Probably ought to read a book yourself.

. . . or how about making it with Mexican cartel cash. I'm sure that the US has seized pallet loads of cash from the cartel. Just use that to build the wall.

So you think the dimocrats don't have a card in this game? You should not be one talking about ignorance!! It's on display in spades in your post.
