Pelosi: Democrats Are Not Going To Fund Trump's "Immoral" Border Wall

[Dashinka 24,609]

I think we knew the Dems wouldn't propose any funding for President Trump's wall, but now it is "immoral"?

QUESTION: But within that, there was money for the fence, as well.

PELOSI: Well, you're talking about (ph) a fence. You're not talking about a wall now.

QUESTION: But you're OK with that, as long as it's...

PELOSI: No, I'm -- I'm -- I'm OK with what our -- our -- our chairwoman, Lucille Roybal-Allard -- she is a person who has fought on these issues her -- her entire stay in Congress, which has been for a couple of decades. We're blessed that she's in the position that she is in.

She knows that we -- most of us, speaking for myself, consider the wall immoral, ineffective and expensive. And the president said he promised it. He also promised Mexico would pay for it. So even if they did, it's immoral still, and then they're not going to pay for it.

Yes, enforcing the laws is "immoral" in the eyes of a democrat.

 

I am thinking the democrats need to just change their name to Socialist Party.

One could argue walls are immoral because they are inanimate objects and therefore lack morality... 😉

I'm still waiting for Mexico to pay for it. Why are we taxpayers footing the bill? Mango is the Emperor with no clothes.

That is not the question I asked.  How is having a fence, or boarder control moral, but a wall immoral?

Except she did not make that distinction, she seemed to be fine with a fence (also an inanimate object), and the other items we have at the border, but for some reason the wall the President is proposing is immoral.

I was just joking...

 

Wall, fence etc... Morality has nothing to do with it. The wall is impractical for financial reasons. This whole political topic I find hilarious because Republicans are typically the fiscally conservative ones but he is trying to propose a massively expensive project with very little benefit. Certainly not immoral though.

Trump should just allocate money from the defense budget and have the military build the wall. It is an issue of national defense. What would that cost us? One aircraft carrier?

He trying his best, back when the GOP controlled both house they folded up like a duck on the wall and allocation of money.

 

I am more than happy to pay your share of the wall, no worries

Don't bother it'll be a complete waste of money. People will just go over, under and around the wall. It would be nothing more than an expensive glorified Maginot Line.

I actually wouldn't be totally opposed to that...

The Wall In Israel seems to be pretty darn effective.
