Let's assume Mexico pays for the wall and builds it.
How much is the upkeep going to cost yearly? Trump said it was a one time cost for them to build it in his plan but doesn't mention this I don't think.
How much is the increase in border patrol going to cost? A wall is useless unless people are actually monitoring it properly. People will just climb over otherwise.
>>73037596
The cost of it alone will reach well over 10 billion dollars, as for yearly maintenance that number is unknown
Sounds like he'll be creating jobs.
Reminder the wall has already been paid for by congress. The money is already allocated. Obama just refuses to do it
>>73037596
Its a wall. What kind of parts do youthink will wear out? You do know what a wall is, right?
>Climbing over a 40-50 foot wall
You fukkin wot
>>73037596
Illegals cost the U.S $110 billion a year if I remember correctly.
Send most of them back, and you have enough money to invest in everything that comes with the wall such as maintenance, defense, patrols etc.
The wall in Iraq/Afghanistan has cost the U.S well over 2 trillion dollars, and people are complaining about how much the wall will cost, and how much it'll cost to maintain it. Shaking my head to be quite honest, family.
>>73037596
you mean more jobs for honest American citizens?
>>73038072
There are occasional maintenance costs, though. Weathering, attempts at breeching it or tunneling under it, and so forth. It shouldn't cost much more than what's already being spent for border security.
>>73038216
>The wall
The war* Pls no bully.
What makes you think Trump won't make Mexico pay for the ongoing maintenance of the wall? Why do you assume that? If I was negotiating the deal, I'd push for that, and I'm not even the world's foremost negotiation expert like Trump is.
>>73038072
>He thinks that material like cement or concrete doesn't need maintenance
>>73038335
Trump will be in office for at most eight years. Cucks that replace him will pay for it.
>>73037596
Cost of wall <<< Cost of illegal immigrant welfare

>How much is the upkeep going to cost yearly?
Its in here somewhere. I'm too lazy to find it for you. Enjoy

I didn't make it up, mate. His plan doesn't address it like that. "It's an easy decision for Mexico: make a one-time payment of $5-10 billion to ensure that $24 billion continues to flow into their country year after year."

Just asking. I know you yanks don't like paying more taxes. This guy at least kinda answers it. >>73038216 Hopefully the cost does go from one to the other properly. Hopefully it'll cost less to deal with the ones that still remain or make it across plus the cost of the wall and border patrol.

CNN did a breakdown of what it would take to build the wall.

How much will trump pay to be a border wall patroller and can I use a gun?

Saving these, thanks.
wall paid for by Mexico

Thanks for the info, guys. It seems like even deporting half the people will help fund everything.
>>73037596
The wall is silly horseshit for idiots to latch onto. It's not meant to be a serious campaign promise. It wouldnt and couldnt stop people from getting in. Let alone would he ever get mexico to pay for it.
>>73037747
THIS.
Our constitution calls for protecting our borders with fences and walls. We have a budget for it, our congress is just a bunch of faggot pussies who won't do it, and our president actively wants to destroy our country because he hates us.
>>73038902
Lots of "estimations." China is where most of our concrete is going currently. I'm sure the price could be negotiated lower by proper contracting.
The cinder blocks would be labor intensive, but that just means more jobs for Americans. Also Trump has stated many times that we wouldn't need to wall off the entire border, there are many regions with "natural borders" so already there estimate is at least minutely flawed.

>>73039158
I can't tell anymore what is and isn't so I figured I might as well find out if it can be done.
>>73039158
What makes you say that? Read the thread, there's plenty of ways to get mexico to pay for it and they don't even get a say in the matter.
>>73037596
Its going to be a giant fence anyway,, so it wont cost a lot.

trump should help us buold a wall on our southern border
ITS GOING TO BE A BEAUTIFUL, PRODUCTIVE WALL
>>73041660
It'd be a good pitch to make us closer allies. Lend you guys the engineers and designers or something.
>>73038914
>A wall is going to cost hundreds of billions or even trillions
Has to be one of the stupidest things I've ever read in my entire life.
Going to fucking Mars and builing a colony there probably won't even cost trillions.
>>73037596
>>73038216
Drop illegals off in Africa, that'll send a message real quick that we dont give a fuck.
>>73039067
Of course you can use a gun, this is America
>>73042577
If only Lincoln had lived, the niggers would be there.
>>73042248
I could see it, depending on how extensive the colony is. You'd need to set up some resource satellites or something though...it'd be pretty hard to send everything they'd need for a "permanent" colony in one trip
