Democrats Can Fund the World, but Not the Wall

Democrats were once in favor of border security, too.

Now, because it's 2019 and Trump is president, Democrats are conveniently against border security.

The current fight is over a mere $5 billion in funding for a wall - or a "Fence" if the term "Wall" is offensive, but a physical barrier between two nations, controlling who and what traipses from one country to the other.

The Secure Fence Act of 2006 budgeted $50 billion over 25 years to control America's borders.

Two years of the foreign aid budget spent instead on U.S. border security would create the type of physical borders so common in the countries we are generously supporting.

The United States gives about a million dollars a year in aid to Hungary, the same country that was able to fund the construction of "a second fence on the border with Serbia to keep migrants out."

Congress is happy to give money to countries to secure their borders, but House Democrats refuse to spend a dime for the same security measures in their own country.
