And the present walls aren’t immoral because they’re old. You can’t make up the twists and turns they try to justify their arguments.

Democratic candidate for president Julian Castro said on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday that a wall would change the notion of America from being welcoming to walling itself off to the rest of the world.
“But I believe fundamentally that if we were to build that wall, that it would change the notion of America from the Statue of Liberty that stands for freedom and welcomes immigrants to a country that literally walls itself off from the rest of the world,” Castro said.
For over a month, President Donald Trump and Congress were in a standoff over funding for Trump’s proposed wall along the southern border. The standoff resulted in a partial government shutdown which reopened on Friday after Trump announced a deal that would fund the government for three weeks while him and Congress work on a deal pertaining to border security.
It is uncertain if the two parties can make a deal in the next three weeks as Trump is determined to get funding for his wall. Meanwhile Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) is adamant that no money will be used for a wall and has even went as far to call the wall “immoral.”
