Should the U.S. build a wall on the Mexican border?
#FuckTheWall
Rasmussen finds that 37 percent of likely U.S. voters believe the United States should build a wall along the Mexican border to help stop illegal immigration, but the majority (56 percent) do not. Many are angry that after President Trump promised Mexico would pay for it, nearly 2 billion has been set aside from the U.S. budget for the wall's construction.
To the trump voters who thought Mexico was paying for his stupid wall, wrong, Americans, me, YOU are.https://t.co/Mivbz0CzH0

Conservative Ann Coulter wrote, "not only Trump, but also the entire GOP, is dead if he doesn’t build a wall."
Many GOP lawmakers and their constituents still strongly support the construction of a border wall and say it will address problems ranging from illegal immigration and gangs to crime and drug addiction.

But opponents of building the wall say it is just a wasteful, xenophobic way to pin the blame on immigrants for problems like unemployment, crime, and the opioid epidemic.
A legitimate border is a great idea. A wall is a stupid political stunt to feed the angry mob. https://t.co/K9zCR7YEpz
