I want a piece of that action. First off, there ain't no way we can afford to build the wall, and no Mexico will NOT pay for it. Just FYI, I've been doing some googling in reference to the wall.
1. The U.S.-Mexico border from South Texas to the Pacific Ocean south of San Diego is 1954 miles long.
2. The last wall they built along that border was a 7 mile long chain link fence at San Diego.
3. The last two miles of that fence were through some rugged, remote territory (which would define the majority of the whole border).
4. Those last two miles cost $48 milion EACH! $96 million to build two miles of fence.
5. Let's say Donald has connections in the construction business and gets the fence built for an average of only $40 million/mile. That works out to
$78 BILLION, 160 MILLION minus of course the few miles that are already in place.
Are any of you sure you think a complete border wall is a good idea? Really? And, let's assume that when Donald used the word wall, he didn't mean a chain link fence. He meant a masonry wall like he had around his Palm Beach estate. That's going to cost a LOT more than chain link.
