i thought mexico was paying for it? now it's going to pay for itself?

If we legalize it and use the wall as a border-long grow site, Mexico will be begging to buy the wall from us at the old price.

Anteater believes the solar wall is a sound plan.

The border is 1,989 miles long, the vast amjority of it crossing unihabited desert and mountain regions where there are no utility resources whatsover.

Maybe you could, you know, read up a little on what you are talking about (some of the proposed designs, taking into account the length of the wall, etc.) before laughing it off.

You seriously underestimate the ingenuity of what these engineers come up with.

Im not gonna comment on the wall cause I havent read up on it, but dont you think they would build the infrastructure to supply the energy it gathers as the wall is also being built? Sometimes i feel like youd **** on Trump even if his ideas aligned with yours just to stay consistent.

Pretty much on both of those things. Considering the magnitude of constructing the wall in the first place, establishing supporting infrastructure for transporting energy across more barren regions is a drop in the bucket regardless.

Tell Chula the sky is blue and he'll tell you how that makes you a Trump apologist.

In other news, the collusion investigation remains interesting stuff. What I'm curious about is what's going to happen to that narrative when Trump's team decides to bring this back up again as Mueller continues to build a case against him.
