    I doubt that. I suspect they are using the same holes from the old wall.

    In any event, the project is coming along nicely and will be completed in the second term.

    Exactly. That's why the current wall isn't coast to coast.

    That's also why the Dems didn't want to pay for a coast to coast, brick, beautiful wall--the wall Trump promised.

    But my post isn't about whether a coast to coast wall is/was needed as Trump promised: My post is a reminded that, once again, Trump didn't deliver.

    Actually he has delivered on a lot. He keeps promises unlike previous presidents including Republicans. -----And he is delivering on the wall.

    Let me ask you a serious question: Is there anything about Trump you don't like?

    That's putting it mildly. The below article is from Feb. 2020 ... before covid-19 relief etc.

    Trump’s Deficits Are Racing Past Obama’s

    The Congressional Budget Office, or CBO, published its latest “Budget and Economic Outlook” which covers 2020 to 2030 on Wednesday, January 29. The 88 page report projects the Federal government receipts and expenditures to calculate the yearly Federal deficits and total debt, and it forecasts various economic metrics such as the economies growth rate and employment numbers.

    President Obama entered office in early 2009 in the teeth of the Great Recession. Not surprisingly, the deficit exploded from $459 billion in calendar 2008 to over $1.4 trillion in calendar 2009. As the economy recovered the deficits shrank to a low of $442 billion in 2015 and was $585 billion his last year in office.

    President Trump on the other hand was handed an economy that was growing. In 2017, his first year in office the deficit grew to $666 billion, was $984 billion last year and is projected to be over $1 trillion in 2020 at $1.02 trillion. This would be a 74% increase in just four years and going forward the Federal deficit could escalate to $1.7 trillion in 2030.
