We Build The Wall? Not Looking That Way, As Angry Backers Wait For Answers

[TexasTowelie]

Two months ago, the We Build the Wall Town Hall blew into town, thrilling Trump supporters with an all-star lineup of Fox News talking heads, and even a legit right-wing superstar, former White House aide Steve Bannon.

The setup was this: They were collecting donations large and small for a GoFundMe to build parts of a border wall with Mexico, on private property. It was part of a greater strategy to take the building of a wall, or pieces of it anyway, away from the government and put it in private hands.

To the surprise of probably no one, it's not going so well. Angry donors aren't getting their questions answered, and are starting to make noise about it.

The Daily Beast reports:

Months later, there’s no evidence that any construction has started, despite claims from [organizer Brian] Kolfage and his allies that construction would start in April. And now [Trump supporter and donor Joshua] Greene is wondering what ever happened to that wall he was promised his dollars would fund?

“The lack of updates is very concerning,” Greene wrote in an email to Right Richter.

He’s not the only GoFundMe donor curious about what happened to the wall money. Since We Build the Wall blew their April deadline, Twitter replies to Kolfage and the group’s Facebook page have filled up with angry donors. Greene started tweeting his displeasure, too.

3. i checked the website

and the total collected seems to be headed south instead of growing. Down to $22,221,900.00 of their 1 Billion dollar goal. I think that at one time it was over $28,000,000.00
