they are saying it is not NEW wall - it is a REPLACEMENT wall doncha no.
In a system with three co-equal branches of government, that distinction is somewhat important.

Both sides are being dishonest as usual.
There is wall being built and has been since before Trump became POTUS.

If my house burns down, and I rebuild it, is that not a new house?
If my shoes wear down and I replace them with just manufactured shoes, is that not new footwear?
It is an absolutely a silly distinction to make. The real distinction it seems you are attempting to make is expanding the territory the walls cover, not the fact that it is new wall. Because it is new wall, it just is. You hardly seem to understand the word “new”, I greatly question your interpretation of statutes

There used to be a set of pipe saw horses and a barbed wire fence there

58 wasnt kidding in his post, some of this area was literally cross rail fence like you saw in colonial Kentucky, a five year old could step over it.
Common sense would tell one that you would take the high traffic areas first and build something that makes it inaccessible, hence the replacement of these lincoln log barriers with a wall.
But yes some "virgin" land is now getting a wall.

Well by golly someone needs to tell Teddy Roosevelt he cant invent a country called Panama and build a US structure on it.

See the stupid mother fricker who cannot comprehend that replacing worthless barriers with effective ones is the same as building wall where none exists.

That's the absurd part
I mean. One would have to assume that the places that had some sort of barrier in the first place we're probably chosen because they were higher priority in the past
So if those are inadequate you'll be kind of a dumbass to start building your new wall in the places where no barrier existed in the first place.
If your house was a threat to be flooded and there were sandbags in place but they were failing so you decided to spend the bunch of money to improve your flood protection you wouldn't say frick it and start installing your new barrier where you didn't even put sandbags while leaving the sandbags!!

Well the low information voters eat that msm crap up... like maggots in turd patties. Powerful forces at work when you live in a day and age where lies are continually pushed as truths.
There is only one author of confusion and his ways are all over the left.

I mean, yeah, I'm sure it was a practical decision made by border patrol. I've said it before and I'll say it again - Trump politicizing the wall actually made it harder to get this done. I'm talking basic reinforcements. Everyone can whine all they want about how Democrats should get behind it no matter what, but ultimately the truth is that this could have be very uncontroversial. But then you don't score political points.
It's more about scoring points that getting things done, like always

There are lots more things in the constitution that one particular party discards with abandon. Your attention to some purported semantic argument is without standing in a sane world.

Well Beto has already said he'd take down the existing barriers at the border.
