So I wake up today to my wingnut acquaintances assuring me that The Wall has been paid in full. “How?,” you may ask. Why, by stealing from the DoD’s coffers in the name of “national defense.” Yes, according to these wingnuts, Donny is going to help himself to all the money he needs from the Omnibus bill’s defense portion to build the monument to his ego. That he’s “outwitted” the DNC and the “RINOs” alike by getting the money because the bill doesn’t say anything about his being restricted from using defense funds for a wall.

Because that’s a winning election strategy for November: Explaining to your military constituents why you’re raiding their pockets to pay for a wall with empty assurances that Mexico will “eventually” pay us back for the expense.
