A wall makes it more difficult for illegals to get in.  Criminals, terrorists, guns and drugs come in easily without one as well.  The harder we make it, the better.  Thinking it will do "no good" is

Me to...I agree it has a long ways to go but 8 million in three days isn't bad. I think it would be great if he reaches it just so the politicians who do nothing would know that the American people do

OK .... Its over 19 Million now !  Maybe Trump will just declare a National Emergency and build it without asking Schumer or Pelosi ? The National Emergency would be this Nations Security !

19 down and 2,981 to go.

.6% of the way there!

Keep going at this rate and they'll have the $3 billion in just a little over 6 years!

 "In 2019, the federal government will spend a whopping $4.407 trillion. Yet Congress and the president are shutting down the government in a dispute between the $1.3 billion the Democrats have approved for border security and the $5.7 billion the president is demanding — precisely 0.0998 percent of the total federal budget. In Washington, that is considered a rounding error. ... But now we are shutting down the government over a wall much like the one that Pelosi and Senate Democrats fully supported just five years ago?" —Marc A. Thiessen

Of course when it gets over 20 million you're going to hear and read all kinds of crap.

Divide 5,700 by 240 and you'll see just how ludicrous this whole go fund me  thing is. That will enlighten someone with just a bit of mental acuity as to how many years it would take to fully found this Trump ego monument at the current rate of fund growth..

When average citizens are willing to donate their own hard earned money to stop an invasion in the US, but the leftist Democrats are not, that tells the average American citizens exactly where leftist stand on the invasion issue.

They say it isn't happening, but the majority of Americans know it is happening.  They don't believe a wall will help, but they offer no solution of their own at all.  It's pretty obvious they want open borders and want as many illegals allowed in as they can get.

Anyone who supports leftist Democrats on this issue has to be completely clueless or an enemy of the US.

It is about time all you Trump haters start facing the facts.  There has been a "wall" in some shape or form since 1990. In 2006 congress approved spending to improve and expand it for protection. The "migrants" have continued to find ways around it or under it and continue to smuggle drugs and illegals into the US which we the taxpayers continue to pay for. 

Trump is trying to replace and improve the wall to prevent the continued flow of drugs and illegals into our country.

Read the following and look at the amount of money we spend supporting other countries and say there is not money to spend to boost our security. This is purely political and the dems. will do anything to make the current administration look bad to improve their chances of taking back the white house.

How much does the United States spend on it?

Given the many agencies, funding methods, and categories of aid associated with U.S. foreign assistance efforts, estimates can differ. According to the nonpartisan Congressional Research Service (CRS), which uses the broadest definition of aid [PDF], including military and security assistance, total spending was roughly $49 billion in 2016, the last full fiscal year analyzed. This accounts for about 1.2 percent of the federal budget.

Since taking office, President Trump has sought deep cuts in foreign aid spending, aiming to slash nearly a third of the budget. In his 2018 speech before the UN General Assembly, he said, “Moving forward, we are only going to give foreign aid to those who respect us and, frankly, are our friends.” Congress, the branch of government that sets federal funding, has so far disagreed with the president, largely maintaining existing levels of funding in 2017 and 2018 budget deals.
