(a) I believe the vast majority of those miles are replacement walls, not new walls where none existed before, and (b) If the 367 miles are accurate, doesn't that still leave about 1,560 miles unwalled? I guess the bottom line for me in all this is, given that this was Trump's #1 campaign promise, no one seems able to determine how much progress has been made in closing the border. There seem to be as many estimates as there are websites. a) Opponents of the wall use that argument often. A matter of semantics. See the image below which shows what's being replaced. What the wall is replacing, can't be called a wall.
Whether you call it...a replacement or a new wall...it's obviously an improvement in our border security, No?b). No one ever said the whole 2,000 miles needed a wall/fence. A large portion of that border has natural barriers.

These people were never on our side, to begin with, and never were Republicans. If you cannot see that the Democrats are for leftist violence, mayhem, the destruction of capitalism, law enforcement, high taxes, more regulations, fewer jobs, and an agenda enforced by a politically correct, authoritarian ethos, then you were never one of us. We don’t want you in the party and we don’t need you in the party. What a ridiculous and dangerous attitude. And you call them wise words...pathetic.

There is nothing dangerous about telling the truth. From the evidence I have seen the author is absolutely right. It is clearly shown to the world every day by their actions. Can you tell me what the Democrat party stands for? No running away with vague excuses this time. Stand your ground, embrace reality and tell the truth for once.

Today we have more Republicans jumping ship and saying they're against trump...this time it's more than two dozen former GOP lawmakers...I know, I know...they aren't "real" Republicans. ROFL. More than two dozen former Republican lawmakers endorse Joe Biden on first day of GOP conventionWashington (CNN)More than two dozen former Republican lawmakers announced Monday they are endorsing Joe Biden for president.
Former Sen. Jeff Flake of Arizona and former Rep. Charlie Dent of Pennsylvania are among those throwing their support behind the Democratic presidential nominee through "Republicans for Biden," and the endorsements come on the morning of the first day of the Republican National Convention. Biden has repeatedly emphasized Republican support as he looks to build a broad coalition in his campaign against President Donald Trump.www.cnn.com/2020/08/24/politics/former-congressional-republicans-endorse-joe-biden/index.htmlThat's gotta hurt...but no doubt an equal number of Democrats will flock to trump's banner come Nov.

What kind of idiot believes stuff like that? Oh dear, another failure on your part to impress forum members with your knowledge on yet one more subject. I don’t understand where your arrogance comes from because you fail to deliver every time. All you’ve got are insults and name calling.

Too funny! And the lead off is Jeff Flake from Arizona who is a laughingstock in his own state! He is known as a quitter and a loser! I can only imagine that the rest of the pack are the same caliber. LOL

All you’ve got are insults and name calling. I'm sorry I can't tell you why you believe the nonsense you do...you'll have to explain why...you could start with why you believe Democrats are for fewer jobs. I hope restating your beliefs isn't too insulting to you. I get my arrogance from your ignorance...which explains why you don't understand its provenance.

Did you say something about my ignorance vilepagan?
Democrats have never raised a finger to bring jobs back from overseas. Democrats support illegal aliens who take jobs away from American workers and lower wages. Democrats support open borders and do not believe in the rule of law or US sovereignty.
Your turn to prove me wrong.

He cherry-picked the easiest target but essentially concedes that his party is in favor of.... leftist violence, mayhem, the destruction of capitalism, law enforcement, high taxes, more regulations, fewer jobs, and an agenda enforced by a politically correct, authoritarian ethos
Too funny.
