Sen. Mark Warner Tells Trump To Get A Check From Mexico If He Wants His Wall

When NBC’s Andrea Mitchell asked Warner about Trump’s demand for border wall funding, he responded, “Andrea, for a long time we’ve said, as part of major immigration reform or even as part of giving this immediate relief to these dreamers, 97%, are either serving in school or the military.
They are integral to our country. We would be open to some level of border enhancement security. Some of that might be fences, some might be increased drones, some might be electronic surveillance.
Remember, when the president said he wanted the wall, he said it would be entirely funded by Mexico. So if we build a wall, bring along a check from Mexico and I think we would be in agreement with that.”
Democrats aren’t going to give Trump one penny for his wall. If Trump wants to shut down the government because he lied about Mexico paying for the wall, he should have at it.
The border wall only has the support of 35% of Americans, and those people are almost all within the Republican Party.
The President needs to keep his promise. If he wants a wall, he needs to find a way to get Mexico to pay for it, because he is going to get nothing from the Democrats in Congress.
