CONFIRMED: President Trump Can Sell Federal Land To Build The Wall

Who said Mexico was not going to ultimately pay for it, dufus?

Trump is going to put a 2% tax on all wire transfers to Mexico from the United States.
Ummm… no he isn't , he doesn't have the authority to unilaterally impose new taxes, besides I thought the Republicans were opposed to raising taxes?

He'll probably have to wait until the GOP tax the house back
Don't hold your breath waiting on that..... not to mention a Republican Controlled HoR already shot that idea (HR 1813) dead.

He doesn't have to call it a tax he can call it a fee.
He can call it tiddlywinks if that's what floats his boat but it won't change the fact that the Executive Branch doesn't have the Constitutional authority to unilaterally impose it on anybody.

I fully expect it will become a court case one way or the other.
Only if President Twitter is foolish enough to try and impose it without approval from the Legislative Branch.
When did Dims start caring about whether the Constitution allows the President to do something?

As far as I know, never, it's one of the many things they have in common with the denizens from Crime Family-R.
 
Obama didn't do anything stupid like building a wall that won't work and will cost waste $50 billion.

Here's the reality. Trump will NOT be building a wall. He can sell US land, but he can't spend the money on the wall. There will be no wall.

Saved for when there is a wall.
 
Woo Hoo! Go Trump! Do it! Kick those snowflakes in the yarbles!

CONFIRMED: President Trump Can Sell Federal Land To Build The Wall - Big League Politics

To build a wall along the United States’ international border with Mexico, President Donald Trump could order the sale of approximately 500,000 to 5 million acres of federal land. The U.S. Government currently claims ownership of about 640 million acres of land — or about 28% of the total land mass of the nation. This could raise the entire $25 billion needed to finance building the wall (not just the next installment we are currently fighting over).

But one must understand that out of 640 million acres there is a vast diversity of terrain. The task is to select only between around 0.08% to 0.78% of that total land. Most federally-owned land is not suitable. But some land would be appropriate for sale to the State government, the County, or the general public. Some Western public land is nothing but empty grassland, just ordinary grazing land. Some public land is indistinguishable from the type of land currently owned and used by private citizens. In some cases, there seems to be no plausible reason for the federal government to be holding the land at all.

Decisions about which public lands within a state to consider as candidates must be nominated by each State government. It cannot be the President deciding, because left-wing interests groups will demagogue the issue. The State must identify which lands are not environmentally sensitive, culturally historic, important for scenic or recreational purposes, or reasonably claimed by Native Americans. Throwing those decisions to the States allows all the stake-holders to debate the choices, minimizing left-wing hysteria.


First, the above moron "forgets" that we have courts to prevent dictators to run our government......and

Second, review the source of the above moron's citation.................lol

Maybe he was inspired by Reagan's stealing weapons from the American people, secretly selling them to Iran and then illegally funding terrorist in Central America. Compared with that, building a futile barrier is small potatoes.

First you would have to prove that doing so is illegal. The whole point of the article is that it is legal.

Your chart is meaningless horseshit, of course.

The question still remains, if it is legal why is he not doing it? Why the shutdown if it is not necessary? Why make people work without a paycheck if he has so many other options?
 
We are deeply in debt so let’s sell land to spend more. Yes very responsible....
It's better than the Dim plan: Just spend more money.
Spending is the repub plan. Didn’t you learn that with 2 years of repub control? Now you want us being more irresponsible.
Yeah, right, the Repubs are the ones who wanted to spend $1 trillion on the ACA.

Who are you trying to kid?

They wanted to...but it was the Repubs that added 1.48 trillion dollars to the national debt in a single calendar year during a booming economy.

Deficits increased under repub rule. Where have you been? Now you want us deeply in debt with fewer assets. You are like a drunk gambler.

The Dims are the ones who demanded most of the spending in that bill. It was the price Trump had to pay to get his military increases. It was a stupid decision.

One has to wonder what would have happened to your half brain, had Obama proposed to sell federal lands to fund the ACA........lol

Besides, nitwit......federal lands are NOT Trump's to sell to fulfill his moronic campaign "promise".........Hell, should Trump sell the White House to Russian oligarchs to raise the money for his wall?????.................LMAO

$5 billion is pocket change. You know Dims are full of shit when they claim that amount will break the budget.
