    It’s coming out of the military budget.
    Do you support reducing the military budget? Because that’s what Trump is doing.

    Yes indeed. Trump never gives up trying to accomplish the most useless tasks.

    If the wall is able to seriously impede the invasion of our southern border there won't be many Democrat policies because there won't be many dems in power for a long time. Now that would be a wonderful precedent indeed.

    Most sources are showing Democrats will keep the house and trump’s election is on very thin ice. Upside down in three major states needed to carry the election that he barely won in 2016 — his disapproval rating is way down. Approval rating is slightly down.

    You may be correct but it is far from a sure thing

    At least in 2020 we know where these several BILLION dollars are going. In 2015-16 the Pentagon lost some money we are still trying to figure out WTF happened. 2015-16! Please spare me.
    U.S. Army fudged its accounts by TRILLIONS of dollars, auditor finds
    The Defense Department’s Inspector General, in a June report, said the Army made $2.8 TRILLION in wrongful adjustments to accounting entries in one quarter alone in 2015, and $6.5 TRILLION for the year. Yet the Army lacked receipts and invoices to support those numbers or simply made them up.

    Trump will be reelected, he has too many things going his way

    First, he is the incumbent, very few incumbents have ever lost

    Second, being Trump, he will have every resource avaliable within the Gov't working for him, legal and illegal

    Third, he will also have an array of foreign entities helping him, and why wouldn't they, they saw Russia get away with it without consequences, and now know the Dept of Justice won't do anything plus an entire political party and news network will defend their actions, they got nothing to lose
