Companies Are Now Bidding for Contracts to Build Trump's Border Wall

Mar 23, 2017 // 1:46pm

Companies are now submitting proposals to construct President Trump's promised wall along the Mexican border.

About 500 companies signed up to bid and designs are due to the Department of Homeland Security by next week, William La Jeunesse reported.

The White House has released preliminary guidelines for the wall, which must be 30 feet high while looking imposing from the Mexican side and aesthetically pleasing from the U.S.


White House requirements for border wall.
There's already a backlash from California, with a San Francisco lawmaker proposing a bill that would prohibit the city from doing business with companies working on the wall.

La Jeunesse said the president is asking for $3 billion to start the project, with estimates for the project at around $10 billion.

The schedule laid out by the administration calls for contracts to be awarded at the end of May, with construction beginning in San Diego the following month.

Film at 11... 🤔 🤔

I assume he will hold off until Mexico pays a 1/3 deposit up front...

Been thinking about the imposing Mexican side of the fence... are we gonna paint war puppy-dogs all over it..?? 😕

I hear they are going to paint pictures of trump on both sides - the Mexican side with horns.

I also hear Drafter is paying for the wall - trumps lawyers have a copy of his offer made on the internet.

Gen'rals gathered in their masses,
Just like witches at black masses
Evil minds that plot destruction,
Sorcerer of death's construction
In the fields the bodies burning,
As the war machine keeps turning
Death and hatred to mankind,
Poisoning their brainwashed minds
Oh Lord yeah

I know a guy with a backhoe and I gots some chains and a welder and stuff. .. I could build da wall.... 😟

Screw the damn wall... landmines. Cheaper, and way more effective.

After the first few assplode... the rest will get the hint.

As much as I am in favor of blowing up a few random people... cheap technology has already overcome the landmine. The have a rolly thing they just need to send across first. Then everyone runs shortly after.

We'll have to ban the rolly things... 😟

Why do you hate TW?

He may hate the rolley thing but he sure loves the poley

Well....

Not to brag ....too much for the:

FREAKIN' HUNGARIANS ...
But they just built a massive
A Wall...forward of their OLD wall....that is an
Electrified main tall-azz FENCE w/ like
15-feet of tallish "RAZOR WIRE" till you
Even get to the ELECTRIC TREAT THAT AWAITS YOU...

WHICH ....by the way...
Did not Even cost anywhere near $1 billion...let alone $10 billion...

**** the aesthetics on either side...
Make it tall, NASTY, ELECTRIFIED by sensors , not constant current..., and razor wire 25-50 feet on each side....
PROLLY only cost $3 billion???

Trump is missing an obvious chance to build international relations, along with the wall. He should negotiate a three part trade agreement with China, Mexico and the US, with China building the wall (after all, they have the best one in the world, and with the wages they pay their laborers, it'll be only a few million dollars), Mexico paying China for it, and the three nations agreeing to be preferred trading partners among themselves with a list of mutually selected natural resources, products and technologies.

WTH has Tillerson been doing???

China would want to use their defective steel tho.... 😟

Awww Shucks! I was hoping to get one of the machinegunner positions!

His buddies the Russians know all about building walls.

Walls are common... Israel has a nice concrete one... I think it's gonna be a dam someday tho... 😟

you musta missed the story where a chinese construction company majorly botched repair work on the once great wall...

Trump's prommised wall isn't even going to be contiguous...
