As reported by the Washington Times this morning: “Pelosi vows quick action on resolution to counter Trump emergency declaration” (referring to ‘The Wall’).

But…

They voted for a wall in the past; they know drugs are flooding into the country; they know human/sex trafficking is rampant; they know terrorists are trying to get in daily…

…and Nancy Pelosi thinks this message will resonate with Americans?

How is putting her Party in the same camp as drug cartels and sex traffickers a winning message for the Democrats? In what alternate Reality is that a good thing?

President Trump’s asking for less funding to build effective barriers than Congress authorized in the past to research the sexual habits of sea turtles and banana slugs.

Seriously. When was the last time anyone heard of a Democrat politician worry about spending too much…on anything? The hypocrisy of this anti-wall effort is astounding.

Elites, who enclose themselves in security enclaves, would leave the rest of America exposed. Let those without walls and locked doors in their homes cast the first stone.

A study several years ago estimated illegal immigration costs the United States $135bn annually (and you can bet that amount hasn’t gone down since the study came out).

Why would any American political party be unwilling to spend $5bn to build a wall that can help reduce drug/human/sex trafficking, and possibly save up to $135bn a year?!?

Is this really the hill they wish to die on?
