Congressional Republicans Move to Block Mexican Wall
President Donald Trump is now facing resistance from his own party on his number one campaign pledge — erection of a border wall along Mexico, CNN reported.
"If you're going to spend that kind of money, you're going to have to show me where you're going to get that money," Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski told CNN. "I don't see how you can get a bill like that through [Congress] without offsets. I don't see how that's possible."
It's not a viable option," Sen. John McCain told CNN
"I don't want to see any spending, additional spending on anything done that is not paid for," Sen. Bob Corker, an ally of Trump's and a one-time potential cabinet nominee told CNN. "We have got a huge fiscal problem right now — $20.355 trillion in debt projected to add $9.7 trillion over the next 10 years. "
