I watched Trump's talk last night and thought if he would just make that same talk and replace "the wall" with "gun control" it would address the real "emergency" the USA is having. Again, just my thoughts and opinions.
The reality is, the wall is just a giant middle-finger to brown-skinned people. That's all. It's the President, and his followers' way of saying how much they hate "immigrants" and how much they've changed the country. It's a desperate cry from old white people (mostly men) to show that they still have "power."
It is also "flippin' a bird" to the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the rule of law and the founding and guiding principles of this country.
