This article is from when he floated the idea last week: Trump says troops could finish building border wall

Using military funds for non-military projects like the security wall would appear to violate federal and congressional rules governing defense appropriations. Trump on several occasions has suggested that he can use the military as a substitute for his wall proposal, which critics have also charged as improper use of the armed forces.
Top comment on the article is some dumbass parroting the "USMCA takes so much money from Mexico that they're paying for it" line and everything.

Put the New Orleans levee guys on it. They are pretty adept at spending billions on garbage that doesn't work.

Depending on what he said in his answers to Muller’s questions, this is prettty much an open-and-shut case right there in writing of Trump conspiring against American interests for personal gain. Still by no means clear if congressional Republicans will do anything about it.

No, it's not. You have to understand that the prospect of a protracted, or **** it, even a brief discussion of Whether America Is The Best At Anything is nightmarishly dull, so it's off to a very bad start. On top of that, for your angle to be "Well, yes, America is, in fact, #1 in certain respects, but, nevertheless, in a higher sense..." or whatever the hell you were trying to say there is practically a calculated insult to anyone unfortunate enough to find themselves reading it.

I worked for one of the biggest companies in the world, which took a very progressive stand that no one should say "All Lives Matter". Hint: the CEO didn't do it because he sympathizes with BLM. He did it because he has tens of thousands of minority employees and didn't want to see this issue tear the company apart.

It's a feature of integrated employment and gay people not having to hide in the closet anymore. The system is working.

Nice try. I said no such thing. You posted an all caps hissy fit taking three words out of context to pretend to slam dunk the argument.

Yeah taking an age to get to the point seems to be a common annoyance of mine and IT took 700 pages. Small type too.

It's not even an uncharitable read. That's how insanely bad a poster you are.
