Sheriff Arpaio at RNC: ‘Donald Trump Will Build The Wall'
2016-07-22
[Breitbart] During his July 21 speech at the Republican National Convention, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio described Donald Trump as a "law and order" candidate who "will build the wall" along the southern border to keep our nation secure.
Arpaio said:

We have criminals penetrating our weak border security system and committing serious crimes. I am supporting Donald Trump because he is a leader, he produces results, and is the only candidate for president ready to get tough in order to protect Americans. I have fought on the front lines to prevent illegal immigration and I know Donald Trump will stand with me and other proud Americans to secure our border.

#6  I am very sure that if he asked for at cost construction from major contractors and private donations to pay for it it would be done in a year.

#5  Grand promises with no plans to fund. For someone who's never held an elected office he sure has that politician thing down.

#4  "A concern I have, though, is that some folks will take pot shots at those putting the sections in place"

I suspect there will be a like abundance of volunteers to shoot back

#3  A wall to keep Americans in?

#2  I'll bet he can find enough volunteers to get this done on-time and under-budget.

A concern I have, though, is that some folks will take pot shots at those putting the sections in place.

#1  Trump has made the wall the corner stone of his campaign. If there is no progress on the wall after his first four years he will become a laughingstock and will not get a second four years.
