Is this necessary?

I mean that as a question, seriously. I was shocked yesterday when I heard the news that Florida has now offered to help pay Arizona and Texas to build the border wall, as he was whining about President Biden. Only if I remember correctly, the news media had some misinformation on their news story when they claimed that Trump built over 400 miles of border wall and it seems like he built three walls of border wall and repaired 400 miles. Do we really have all of this extra money to help pay for a border wall? We do seem to have a lot of crime here, isn't it more homegrown crime then coming from illegals?

I can 100% Guarantee that he's going to run in 2024, and I wouldn't be surprised if he's endorsed by Dipshit himself.

for more than a billion $ per mile. Or some ridiculously high figure.

Power? Ignore environmental regulations. Eminent domain. US Border Patrol for security. On federal government land. Etc.

And three states are going to spend their money on new walls? During the Biden administration?

If TFG's cult followers encourage this, that would be yet another sign of their utter madness. Talk about supporting things that are not in their best interest. Forget safety net programs. What about schools, state and local infrastructure. job training programs?

This is madness, and they keep doubling down on their idiocy. When/how does this end?

Isn't something like that more of a federal issue?
