All those hundreds of piles of steel for the border wall that have been abandoned and lying rusting in Texas? Hundreds of millions of dollars worth, so I'm told. Texas wants it to continue building the wall in certain areas (at their expense?) I dunno. I suppose most of us don't support any more federal $$$$ going into TFG's wall, but the Repubs are bound to make a big deal out of it in the upcoming mid-terms campaigns. I can see TV commercial after TV commercial showing those rusting piles of steel and bad-mouthing the Dem administration for "wasting" taxpayer dollars. Lots of them. And I'm afraid they will get a lot of traction.
What to do about those piles of steel?
