    Your re-direction using nonsense is duly noted.

    Bottom Line - You are denying that North Korea / South Korea have wall/fencing for their entire border

    Yes, I am denying that there is a wall/fencing for their entire border because a fence and a wall is NOT the same thing.

    Your subtle deception noted and rejected.

    A fence is not a wall especially how specific Trump has been about his wall, you arguing that a fence (which isn't even on the entire border in a militarized zone) is same as a wall shows you have lost the debate.

    A wall or fence is the same thing in this discussion. Stop your mindless redirection.

    Crying to your opponents that something will make you look bad is an effective negotiating tactic. Sun Tsu first mentioned it in the Art of War and Donald expounded and perfected it in the Art of the Deal.

    Read the title of the thread.

    Does it say 'The Wall of Stupid' or 'The Wall/Fence of Stupid'?

    Did Trump shutdown the government for a fence? Are his supporters on ET ranting about fences or walls? This was NEVER about a fence, you are making it so because your wall argument is stupid and has never been done anywhere the way Trump is proposing it.

    Fences aren't "big and beautiful"

    They certainly are not.... but they are actually more effective and less costly than concrete walls.

    When pushing political points it is much easier to simply use the word "wall" to represent the point that the politician is trying to get across to voters.

    The wall is the 'fence' now?

    Indeed

    Still, the fence they voted for is not as substantial as the wall Trump is proposing. Trump himself called the 2006 fence a "nothing wall."

    The dumb thing about Trump is he'd build a wall/fence just to appease his supporters even if he knew it was of no significant value to the country. About the only good thing I can see about that is it's nowhere near as bad as invading a country on false pretenses to appease your supporters ( e.g. Iraq ); we can only hope when Trump threatened to attack North Korea he was just lying again.
