>Democrats say they don't want a wall

Democrats have said they don't want the U.S. to pay for building another wall.

Do a crowdfunding thing, raise the $$, if you have the money you can build the wall! What's stopping you?

So, why are Democrats trying to oppose Trump on this?

The Wall no longer matters. Only one thing matters now: Trump's felonies. He will either resign or be impeached. He will likely be indicted. The election payments crime is only the tip of the iceberg. The chickens are coming home to roost. Trump is toast.

The wall is a part of the solution to illegal immigration and no there aren't more effective ways to deal with border security. The wall would be on the border, duh.
That should tell you something. Neither side wants to pay for the wall. They like their cheap labor.

The entire second paragraph of your post is strawman fluff, so there's no need for me to address it.

Foolish wall? It was approved by congress back in 2006. Were you screaming "foolish wall" back then? I doubt it!
As it was never funded changes are great that it never will be. No wall!

He can't get enough Republicans to vote for the wall. Funny, how you forget to mention that.

Why is it great not to build a wall that has already proven to be a very effective tool to deter illegal entry? Don't reply back to me if you're going to come back with the nonsense that walls don't work or it's too costly or "but, but, but Mexico is supposed to pay for it". I don't want to hear any more of that BS as I have debunked all of it over and over in here.

Why should I? I'm well aware that some Republicans won't vote for the wall but the fact is that it's mostly the Democrats that wont'! With a little help from them the wall funding would pass. Try again!
