Over a dozen Republicans in Congress are expressing skepticism about President Donald Trump’s plan to construct an “impenetrable, physical, tall, powerful, beautiful, southern border wall” along the 1,954-mile-long border between the United States and Mexico.The wall is well worth every penny: every illegal who can't make it here who'd be a welfare for years saves a lot of money !
Some of the GOP lawmakers say they will vote against any legislation funding a wall unless its potentially steep cost is wholly offset by cuts in spending elsewhere, reports CNN.
Other Republicans in Congress say that the wall, if built, will fail to stem the tide of illegal immigration from Mexico as well as Central America.
Tennessee Sen. Bob Corker counts himself among the legislators concerned about how any wall would be funded.
