    Trump 'Wall' To Become Border Fence Upgrade; USA Will Pay

    WASHINGTON (AP) — Congressional Republicans and Donald Trump's transition team are exploring whether they can make good on Trump's promise of a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border without passing a new bill on the topic, officials said Thursday.

    Under the evolving plan, the Trump administration would rely on existing legislation authorizing fencing and other technology along the southern border. Congress would be asked to ensure that enough money is appropriated to take additional new steps — but would not pass a stand-alone bill authorizing a big new wall. CNN separately reported that Trump would ask Congress to appropriate US tax payer money to pay for the "wall".

    The potential approach was confirmed by two congressional officials and a senior transition official with knowledge of the discussions; all spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly. The officials emphasized that no final decisions had been made.

    The approach could come as a surprise to some but could avoid a legislative fight Trump might lose if he tried to get Congress to pass a stand-alone bill authorizing the kind of border wall he promised during the campaign.

    It's not clear how much could be done along the 2,000-mile border without additional actions by Congress. Lawmakers passed the Secure Fence Act of 2006, but most of those 700 miles have already been built. Some areas are in much better shape than others, though, and long stretches are made up of fencing that stops vehicles but not pedestrians.

    But whatever steps might be taken without Congress' approval would be likely to fall short of the extravagant new wall on the border that Trump repeatedly said Mexico would pay for.
    And despite Congress' involvement in approving any spending, such an approach might also open Trump to charges of going around the House and the Senate to take unilateral actions, something he repeatedly criticized President Barack Obama for doing. A spending bill including money for border construction could also provoke a legislative showdown given potential opposition from Senate Democrats.

    Still, several lawmakers and congressional officials said the administration could have significant flexibility in taking additional steps without Congress' approval.

    "There's a lot of things that can be done within current law," said Rep. Mario Diaz-Balart, R-Fla., a longtime proponent of comprehensive immigration reform, though he emphasized that a lasting solution on immigration would take Congress. "You cannot minimize the potential impact of the administration doing what they can do under the law."

    However, some immigration hard-liners have already expressed the desire to see Congress take a vote given how prominent the wall was during Trump's presidential campaign, and their desire to act on the issue.

    Trump's vow to build an impenetrable, concrete wall along the southern border was his signature campaign proposal. "Build the wall!" supporters would chant at his rallies. "Who's going to pay for it?" Trump would ask them. "Mexico!" Trump often promised the wall would be built of hardened concrete, rebar and steel as tall as his venues' ceilings, and would feature a "big, beautiful door" to allow legal immigrants to enter.


    Most experts viewed such promises as unrealistic and impractical, and Trump himself sometimes allowed that the wall would not need to span the entire length of the border, thanks to natural barriers like rivers. After winning the election, he said he'd be open to stretches of fencing.

    So taxpayers are paying for a wall to keep out the same people who are to return the money back is that right?

    Don't forget the part where those very people whom said wall is being erected to keep out ...

    Would likely receive compensation (at the expense of US tax payers) for actually building said wall, on American soil

    Truth is illegal immigration is bad for black workers, I agree with obama admin deporting them in record numbers, shouldn't stop now

    People will find a way around walls, his obsession with it is stupid, I guess congress could pass a finance tax on money moved to Mexico from US, sure someone will just start a company that will allow Mexicans in America to send money to Canada or Guatemala and reroute it to Mexico

    I never was for this, but ? .... ? it. If they talking $30+hr/ $100+pdm, I might be a wall welding ass ? .

    ? will be so ironic. The people they trying to keep out will be coming over to get that wall money, too. Them contractors don't give a ? bout hiring them. Mexicans damn near run those border towns already. Them immigrants gonna eat good off this.

    ? I was sure wondering if they needed electricians for that wall. I guarantee at least like $32/hr minimum, ? I'm come up. Find me a mexican broad to finesse a free place to stay while I'm down there and I'm on.

    At the same time, what kinda lazy, misinformed ? doesnt bother to vote against him? Thats even worse. Obama beat Romney by 5 million votes. Hillary had 2 million more than Trump and while she therefore "won" she lost by the rules. Numerous swing states and projected blue states went red because...i dont know people didnt "like her" well that means they like Trump more by default then.That means instead of more or the same level voting in this election, they didnt. Its smarter to actually exercise your right than give it up.
    Cant really trip when people let these people get and stay in office. Thats saying "keep doing what your doing".
    I cant even get mad at someone for voting how they want. Thats what what your supposed to do its not a joke. They were just smarter and more motivated this round. Too late now for this time. People cant assume it'll go their way if they dont do their part. How can it? cant depend on the next person obviously its not their responsibility to choose the best option for someone who doesnt bother.
