After listening to President Donald Trump and other Republican lawmakers explain that $5.6 billion is pocket change compared with the total budget in the trillions of dollars, I would like to remind our politicians (especially Trump) that the average American wage earner will not earn a billion dollars with a lifetime of work.
The only wall I would approve of is one built around Trump. High enough that he can't get out, and soundproofed to contain his inane rhetoric.
