Letter: Pay for the border wall with thoughts and prayers
(Eric Gay | AP file photo) In this Monday, Jan. 21, 2019, photo, a U.S. flag hangs on a border barrier in El Paso, Texas.
A response to soon-to-be-former (not soon enough) Sen. Orrin Hatch.
Sir, as per your request for citizens to pay for your “Trump Wall,” you have our (wait for it) thought and prayers.
Failing that, do what all us “so-called childish people” have to do. Start a GoFundMe.
Tod White, Orem
