Political Quotes

“Recall President Trump's promise on the campaign trail: we will build a wall and have Mexico pay for it. Not only is it costly and unnecessary, but it will do more to divide America than it will to keep us safe. First, taking the fact that Mexico is not paying for it, nor would anybody in their right mind think that Mexico was ever going to pay for it, now he is asking for $1.6 billion of Americans' hardworking taxpayers to pay for it. We already have 650 miles of border fencing, but representing the Sunshine State, with over 1,000 miles of coastline, this isn't going to make us safer. It is not going to help us at all. And then you look to how there are racial undertones to this. Notice how there is a focus on the Southern border, but not the Northern border? While I would not support that, we can't help but notice that this is focused on dividing America on racial lines, on making us less safe and on wasting taxpayer dollars. It is time to unite America. It is time to look forward to a safer America, and spend our money on the Coast Guard, on custom border control, and other works that will make us safer. ____________________”
