"Because Nancy Pelosi should be ashamed of not letting me charge taxpayers to build my beautiful wall. It's going to be beautiful I can tell from the wall that's already built. I'm sure the American people won't mind going without a paycheck or two to prevent immigrants from taking their jobs because immigrants will pay for the wall. That's why they want American jobs..."

If you're going to build a wall, you want it to repel, not attract.

He keeps changing his story. One day he's already started building the wall. Other days, they've finished portions already.

Trump teases national emergency declaration could come during SOTU
Source: Roll Call

President Donald Trump on Friday said there is a “a good chance” he will declare a national emergency at the southern border to unlock Defense Department dollars for a wall, and signaled he may announce it during his State of the Union address Tuesday.

“I think there’s a good chance we’ll have to do that,” Trump said of a coming emergency declaration, which Democrats and pro-immigration groups have said would be met with an immediate legal challenge.

“We will be looking at a national emergency because I don't think anything is going to happen,” Trump said of the House-Senate panel’s negotiations.

...snip...

“You’ll hear the State of the Union and let’s see what happens,” Trump told reporters during an event about human trafficking across the U.S.-Mexico border. A national emergency declaration, he claimed, “does help the process.”

Especially if he hasn’t decided to call it an emergency. Real emergencies are obvious.

I noticed a few weeks back. Now this story is big news today,remember there was a story about Adelson's giving money to Trump's Defense fund,well we here it is 500k. Oh btw,we now know,Adelson's Sands Corp received rights to build a Casino in Japan,btw,others are going to follow on. Oh,does this Wall thing sound familiar,it should,Adelson and Spouse were pushing Bibi and his hard liners to build that wall to keep the Palistian's out of Israel and the Adelson's are the de-facto Ambassador's to Israel.

Adelson's operate non union Casino's and the Culinary and SEIU unions have for years tried to organize his Properties with no success. When ever there are attempts,he and his organization go into a massive anti Hispanic PR campaign. Is this wall one of Adelson's Ant-Hispanic moves,sure sounds that way locally. Sheldon and Mariam are really Poed
about losing this last Election Cycle to Harry Reid. So there sure seems to be ton more here that has not been exposed.

the wall is being built and will make the church wind up on the Mexican side when it's done.
Maybe on THE LAST WORD?
