The sheer dumbassery of this proposal has been debated, but Trump’s now attached a dollar figure to the first phase of this project. Extrapolated to the entire length of the border, we’re talking $32 billion.
It’s nuts, especially when Trump himself said the best way to get around or over the wall is to go to Home Depot or Lowes and grab a ladder or rope.
