The Trump administration is having the American taxpayers spend from $500 million to over $3 billion to paint the border wall black. A pair of gloves to get over it will cost ten bucks.

Im confused. 1) I thought they claimed illegal crossings have stopped and 2) my guess is they cross at night anyway. What company was awarded the contract? Follow the money.

Paint Shop Owner Juan Carlos Enriquez has paint - but he likely won't "sell" it to Trump... An appeals court ordered Trump’s company to pay Enriquez for $32,000 worth of paint used in a golf-resort renovation, plus his legal fees. The total: more than $300,000 (2017)

Only from the standpoint they want to slice the country apart and keep all the pieces for themselves. In other matters, like creating useful, efficient policies, well, you hit the nail right on the head. They prove your point every, single ☠️ day.

And probably in the wee hours of boring you'll probably cool down enough that they can climb over it anyway without gloves and I don't imagine they're doing it in the middle of the day time anyway it's just a waste of money big time Electrify it might work and cost more Trump don't care
