7:03Now PlayingSurprise, surprise! It turns out that President Trump won't be able to get Mexico to pay for the unnecessary wall on the U.S.-Mexico border after all. Now he's alleging that taxpayers will foot the bill at first, but eventually, we'll be reimbursed by Mexico. Riiiight. Speaker Ryan and Majority Leader McConnell estimate that the wall will cost between $12-15 billion dollars. So, at a time when net immigration from Mexico is less than zero, and when Flint residents don't have clean drinking water, 500,000+ people are homeless, and 30 million people don't have health insurance, our new president thinks we should prioritize a wall over these aforementioned issues. If Trump and his billionaire friends want a wall so badly, how about they pay for it themselves?
