I can give you many reasons why Trump’s Mexican border wall is a waste of money and labor. But I don’t need to go into those details. Thanks to a new document released by the Pentagon,  we just got another 127 reasons.

Back in February, Trump declared the situation at the Southern border a national emergency. I already knew Mexico wasn’t going to pay for the wall, but this cemented to me the true weight that the American people had dropped on themselves in the 2016 election.

And now, with less than 500 days to go until Trump’s first (and if his performance so far is any indicator, I predict last) term ends, we can clearly see the impact of his absurd campaign promises in the $3.6 billion that was diverted away from 127 defense projects that will have to be postponed in order to build his ludicrous wall.

Hurricane Maria relief efforts at military installations in Puerto Rico and wide defunding of projects across Europe are just two of the massive projects deferred by the moving of funding, amongst others in 23 states, three territories and 20 countries.

But don’t worry. The United States won’t have to shoulder the enormous burden of funding to build the wall. Why? Because Trump said so.

“Remember this,” Trump said in 2016 on the campaign trail, “the wall will be paid for by Mexico.”

Oh, but that must have been taken out of context. Oh, wait a minute; he just blatantly lied.

How hypocritical and deluded do you have to be to cut funding from 127 military projects, the vast majority of which concern national security, in the name of that security?

“It is when you have thousands of people trying to rush our country. I think that’s national security, when you have drugs pouring into our country,” Trump said in an Oval Office briefing.
