    Tree Huggers lose out on Border Wall decision ...

    Trump Wins, so who's next ? Flat Earth Society ?

    The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday rebuffed a challenge by three conservation groups to the authority of President Donald Trump’s administration to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, a victory for Trump who has made the wall a centerpiece of his hardline immigration policies.


    It's like building Hadrian's Wall at one brick per day.

      The Great Wall, Hadrian's Wall, among others, all worked for a while. Even the Maginot Line made the Germans think a little harder for a few months.

      Trump's Wall isn't really a gigantic wall per se. It's more on the order of a system of better obstacles with more personnel in place with power to enforce the laws.

        JB, Trump literally wants a "big beautiful wall". If you don't believe my quotes, look it up. The man is not subtle about expressing his desires.

          Maybe when it's all over we can reconstitute the bricks and boards from his hotels and build a wall? It will be like some giant Les Miserables barricade!
