    In his desperation to make Americans pay for the wall that they don't want that he repeatedly promised them Mexico would pay for, it was your messiah who evoked the Vatican's wall when he lied, claiming

    And that has nothing to do with this thread. Obviously you are looking to change what you feel is an uncomfortable subject, the inconvenient truth if you will.

    If you don't like my evoking Trump's evoking the Vatican's wall to feign a moral equivalency for his wall that he repeatedly promised Mexico would pay for, why do you try to evoke a diversion to Israel's that Mexico did not pay for either? Israel did not build a wall to frustrate families fleeing intolerable conditions.

    Did you even read the OP?

    Largest similarity: Illegal immigration
    Here, too, the barrier has prevented terrorist infiltration and drug and weapons trafficking, but its primary purpose was to stop illegal migrants. Surprising as it may sound, large numbers of Muslim migrants from North and Sub-Saharan Africa had been crossing vast deserts, war zones, and minefields in the hope of a better life in Israel

    Even ignoring the repugnant, arpartheid aspects of Israel's controversial wall, I believe a majority of Israelis support it - even if Mexico did not pay for it.

    Trump now goes back on his word regarding his making Mexico pay for his wall, and tries to contrive moral legitimacy for it by evoking the Vatican's little wall that allows free entrance and egress.

    Support for our border wall will flourish when it's effectiveness becomes evident and Trump will be revered as a great visionary

    I wasn't trolling. And you did undermine your own argument. I can't help you there. You did it to yourself.
