So Trump is now asking for $8.6B for the border wall?

The problem with that is the Democrats are not at all fond of this wall project, and they are the ones who control the House of Representatives...so getting that money won't be easy for the President. Here's the link to the article:

@lorne13 750 thousand illegals crossed in February. Other caravans are forming. How many more illegal crossings and caravans forming before people like you see it as a crisis?

@GunSmoke9 Crossings at the Southern border have fallen for that last few years.

@Graylight 750 thousand last month.

Still much lower than in years past, and then there was no talk of a crisis.@GunSmoke9

@SW-User So 750 thousand crossing last month is too low for you?

SW-User

I’m only describing the difference between two numbers.@GunSmoke9

@Graylight They will keep coming. With democrats giving them incentives to cross illegally.

SW-User

I’m sure you are aware that Republicans hire them as well. Especially in agriculture. @GunSmoke9

@SW-User Then they overstay their vistas. Showing no respect for our laws. I also blame Republicans for our immigration mess.

@Graylight Until the number of people entering America illegally reaches zero, the crisis continues.
