The plan would also steal money from disaster relief funds intended for California and Puerto Rico.
The Trump administration is considering taking money that was supposed to be used to build houses for military families, and use it to build Trumps racist border wall instead.
Politico reports that Trump chief of staff Mick Mulvaney has come up with the idea as a sneaky way to circumvent Congress, which has refused to fund Trumps wall, and to avoid invoking a national emergency, which Trump has threatened to do if he didnt get the funds he wanted.
The plan would shift money from Department of Defense funds slated for military construction, including family housing and infrastructure for military bases, to Trumps useless pet project that most Americans dont want.
The Trump teams scheme would also take money away from disaster relief funds for California and Puerto Rico, along with funds allocated to flood control projects the Army Corps of Engineers has in place in Northern California.

Since this asshole and others like him have never lived on "base housing" , and a lot of the pollution that is on these bases hasn't been cleaned up, and for that matter being giving extra money to live off base if "all" the base housing is full, this asshole, and other like him need to live in a detention tent..........................it cost me and other taxpayers over 1.3 million dollars for this asshole and his criminal enterprise to fly to Mar a Lago, when the money could be used for, well..........base housing......................
What a fucking asshole..............................
