Brian Kolfage's GoFundMe for the wall reaches a tipping point
The number of millions raised now outstripped by the number of days fundraising - so just over $19m raised in 20 days (or 0.0019% of the first billion needed). A marked drop from earlier. Kolfage promised big news this week that would be "Shock and Awe 2.0" but nothing materialised. He now says that legal entanglements to ensure the money will definitely go to building the wall are holding things up.
He claimed last night that once these are solved the fund will be raising '$100m a week' By that measure, the 5 billion dollars will be raised in just under a year. I call BS.

of cash, that’ll scare away the immigrants.
2.some percent and another .30 per donation if I'm not mistaken.
They stand to make out like cabinet members if the donations keep pouring in.............
The hilarious part is that with Republican graft and corruption those millions would probably get them a really nice garden wall, but they couldn't even do that because anybody that submitted bids would want to use illegal labor.
his Base starts to get those huge tax refunds.
What a bunch of sucker rubes to ship boatloads of cash to this guy.
If so many are really for it, that wouldn't even be unfair would it? Maybe a check box on the tax forms, for the wall or not? Add up all the checked boxes, divide by how much is needed to build the wall (don't forget the cost of that "the wall just got ten feet taller"
. Take that much of their refund, if it's enough and if they have a refund coming, and send out bills for what their wall obligation is to those who's refund didn't cover it all or had no refund coming. See how that works out for them.
