    Is this why Trump didn't complete his wall in 2016 when the GOP controlled all 3 branches?

    Hook line sinker every damn time.

    there were a lot of missed opportunities in those first 2 years, but this is about what is happening now not 8 years ago

    I believe, fact check me if you disagree, that most if not all of the steel/iron was purchased with appropriations during the first Trump administration but not delivered in time to be erected before Pres. Biden took office. This seems like a complete slap in the face to Trump and his supporters who'd like to see the wall completed in the most vulnerable areas.

    The RINOs would not fund it, so he did what the Dems do all the time. He reallocated funds... from the military.

    What's happening now is Trump's wall is a piece of crap and is falling apart. I'm sure if you donate to Steve Bannon's fund a strong and sturdy wall will be built

    good catch. Maybe trump should try visiting all 57 states

    https://m.youtube.com/shorts/2K0oMz7s6Hk

    “It is wonderful to be back in Oregon,” Obama said. “Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go. Alaska and Hawaii, I was not allowed to go to even though I really wanted to visit, but my staff would not justify it.”

    I was going to say something similar. The remains of sections of the wall that are being auctioned by the Biden Administration are most likely scrap from sections of the wall that have failed and are probably unusable for the construction of new wall. It's very unlikely that it's part of a nefarious scheme to prevent Trump for resuming construction of the wall.

    The remaining wall will be built. Now it will cost more. Taxpayers will now pay at least twice the amount to replace what Biden sells. Par for the course. Thx Joe. Can’t leave quick enough.

    It seems very petty to me. Another instance of Biden's staff not doing him any favors and making him look bad. I doubt Joe knew a thing about it.
