Surprised the white house when he announced the policy back in may. in his interview with the los angeles times, outgoing chief of staff john kelly talked about president trumps plan to build a wall along the u.s./mexico border. he told the paper, quote, to be honest its not a wall. kelly added the president still says wall. oftentimes hell say barrier or fencing. now hes tended toward steel slats. we left a solid concrete wall early on in the administration when we asked people what they needed...

>> general kelly talked about president trumps plan to build a wall along the u.s./mexico border. he told the paper, quote, to be honest its not a wall. the president still says wall. oftentimes hell say barrier or fencing. we left a solid concrete wall early on in the administration when we asked people what they needed and where they needed it. lindsey graham met with the president for lunch yesterday. afterwards he told reporters that the wall has become a metaphor for border security. >> the...

Wall/border security without getting something themselves. here is what i think might work. $5 billion for the wall/border security. democrats have voted for more than that in the past. married up with the bridge act, which senator durbin and i wrote, three-year one-time renewable work permit, daca population, 400,000 tps people came here from natural disasters and war-torn countries decades ago. their visas are running out. so basically $5 billion for the wall plus the bridge act, tps and some ...
