Matt Vespa at Townhall reports that MSNBC found a new way to argue Trump's wall-building on the Mexican border is wrong. On Friday, MSNBC host Craig Melvin brought on biologist and Animal Planet host Jeff Corwin, who worried out loud that constructing a wall coult hurt not only the Mexican gray wolf, but birds and even bats: “if this border wall happens, it would be an unprecedented environmental catastrophe,” Corwin proclaimed.

Wow, the stupid is REAL strong with this one.

BTW, how can the wall be a deterrent to birds but not illegals? Haven't we been told that a wall is just a waste of money and won't do anything to curb the illegal invasion?

I assume Corwin is an intelligent man. However, his comments make me question my assumptions.

They have lost their minds... If Maxine Waters or Sheila Jax Lee sees this they will agree.

The wolf concern is one thing (they are ground-based).

But birds and bats? The only bats I'm concerned about are the ones trapped in his belfry.

Me too. We can't block migration patterns of beautiful animals and POS bats. (sarcasm)





















Oh wait, they can fly over it.

But they aren't worried by birds flying into windmills.

The Audubon society estimates 300k birds are killed by wind turbines every year.

It's amazing those anchors don't laugh on air when people say stupid stuff like that.

the wolf can survive on either side of the wall. if he gets stuck on the USA side; he better learn wolf-english and he better not try to kill rancher animals and have a buffet at chicken coops -with quickness- or he will be sent back home.

Liberals who sit around watching Fox News because they want to get pissed off at something are weird.

So are people on this board who constantly watch CNN and MSNBC.

Can it cross the wall, though. That concern is not without some merit.
