    Good because he's not charitable. Trump is a crook and has been his whole life.

    Grow up, chump.
    A bit like the way the struggle between the USA and the USSR was about profit and 'democracy' perhaps. The mugs believed in democracy or 'State's Rights' as the interests of the big bosses in profit might determine?

    Where was your outrage over the "storage" of immigrants under Clinton, The Obama? If a wall will "do nothing", then why do rich Hollywood types have walls around their properties?

    You are comparing walls around private residences to a border wall? Are you senile?

    Do you equate a house with a wall is the same as a border wall?

    Slavery was one of those states rights but not the only one.

    The USA has lost WWIV to China with no other weapons but China Virus and some cash to buy democrats.
