If one of them gets into power, Canada might just pay for that wall.
Seriously? What is it with these people and their walls?
It creates an “us vs. Them” narrative. Like christians and muslims or arians and jews. Oldest trick in the book to get your people to comply with anything.
Heavy ties to the construction industry. Like is anyone really surprised Trump, a guy whose entire career is basically building shit and find ways to hustle money out of suppliers and contractors, wanted to build a fuckoff huge wall? He has friends who will scratch his back if he scratches theirs, and it’s easy to think other republicans have doners with similar expectations.
Plus it’s an low effort attempt to fix something complex with a highly visible solution. “Look we built a wall!”
Simple, easy dumb way to transfer money from public federal funds to private contractors you are leeching off of.
You can’t have a new border wall until you finish your old one.
I’m good with this. Especially when the US devolves into full-blown christofascism as seems inevitable at this point.

For simply musing idly about the possibility of a Canada wall, Scott Walker drew merciless ridicule in the 2016 campaign.
Gary Doer wondered how Walker, the governor of a Great Lakes state, Wisconsin, no doubt aware of that body of water, intended to build a wall across the monumental natural boundary.
The New York Times obituary for his failed campaign said his string of gaffes had unnerved supporters, and it specifically cited the Canadian wall comment.
With just a year to the election, Ramaswamy’s campaign has already lasted longer than Walker’s and is in fourth place in hypothetical national primary polls.
He remains a distant longshot, however, languishing approximately 54 percentage points behind Donald Trump, the Republican frontrunner, who skipped Wednesday’s debate.
