Trump Speaks on the Crisis in Venezuela, Warns Maduro: "A Lot of Things Are Going to be Happening This Week, Maybe Sooner"
by Jim Hoft     May 1, 2019

President Trump joined Trish Regan on Wednesday night on Trish Regan Primetime.

President Trump discussed the ongoing humanitarian and political crisis in Venezuela. President Trump warned the current Socialist leaders, “It’s just a terrible situation… All options are on the table. We want to help people… A lot of things are going to be happening in the next week, maybe sooner.“

On Wednesday National Security Advisor John Bolton and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said all options are on the table in regards to Venezuela including military action.

There around the 9 minute, 9 and a half minute mark, he starts to talk about this.  Why say "end of 2020", how about "end of 2019", 200 miles or something.... anyway.

The full border is? 1900 miles long per this article:

So, 400 miles would be roughly 18% or something?  We will need more evidence on this I think.

Trump says that we're building a lot of wall now.  I'd like to know where and with what funds.  He also says 'probably" 400 miles of wall by 2020.  Again, where's the money coming from and where is the 400 miles going to be built?  He signed a bill allowing states to opt out of a barrier, so I'd be curious as to where the 400 miles is going to be built?  Is this NEW wall, or repairs of existing?  Big difference.

We've heard all this b.s. from him before. To me he's lost all credibility.  Unless funds have been approved for a new wall, or he's utilizing funds from somewhere else, I'm not buying his song and dance that he's said over and over again. 

What's happening on the border Mr. President??  Keep in mind that this is the same President that agreed to allow the U.N. to place illegals seeking asylum into the U.S.

Sorry Donald, I declare b.s. BIGLY!
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

From inauguration to April he built 39 miles per DoD.
But over the next 18 mos. he'll build another 361 miles!

   Being that he and his party are under the thumb of the Chamber and are not gonna do anything about the crap that brings them here in the first place (benefits, free $$$), I'll take 400 miles over zero miles any day.
   Unless this is just MORE Red Meat for his base, then:

He keeps saying that lots of wall is being built right now .... where?  Where is he getting the money from to build the wall he's talking about?  Congress hasn't given him the funding.  Where is he building this wall?  I'm really curious as he signed a bill allowing states to opt out.

Congress did give him some money; he settled for nearly $1.4 billion, which gives him appx. 55 miles of fence.

Prior to this they also gave him a meager amount to repair existing wall. 

Also, he used the words 'probably' will have 400 miles of fence by 2020.  Yeah, right, and I probably will be a mulit-millionaire in 2020 also.

   @libertybele he wanted to decommission the Harry S. Truman (built in 1998) to allow more breathing room for DoD, and the Navy was Ok with it, until a subsequent Tweet, oh wait, nevermind.

@Absalom  @corbe

I'm more impressed at how he's getting a good deal just for us taxpayers, originally, the wall was going to be $24 billion or something, it's in the interview, now, $5.4 billion or something. What a deal.

All the same, I think there are just some parts of the border where you can't put a wall up. There is going to be redtape and lawsuits.
