$1.00 to build the wall? Credible source for this? Did you get it from the Donalds quivering tripple chinned mouth? Seriously, his chin quivers when he talks. Its so disgusting its almost hypnotic. Maybe that's why so many weak minded people vote for him.
The wall is a good example of the kind of president Trump wants to be. Why would you vote for a person to be president that has huge promises and provides nothing to explain how he will deliver on them.
Without any other estimates, I dug around and found something that at least makes a smidgen of sense regarding the cost of that wall.

Raw materials cost alone is $17 Billion:
Going off of materials estimate we have… 167,272,000 cubic yards of cast-in-place concrete at $93/cubic yard = $15,556,296,000 1,030,000 segments of 10’ pre-cast panels at $17/panel = $17,510,000
2,500,000 tons of steel rebar at $600/ton = $1,500,000,000
Total Material Cost Estimate: $17,073,806,000
But that's not all. you have to pay somebody to build it. Rule of thumb is the cost to pay somebody to build a project is about the same as the materials cost. So, another $17 Billion
Total thus far: $34 Billion
Then there are legally required environmental impact studies, mitigation for environmental impact and land that would have to be purchased where the wall crosses private land. So, way rough estimate, add another $6 billion
Do you have anything with some sort of citation that says 200 million to build this wall? How about anything credible out there that provides an estimate better than mine? Until you do, I'll stand by my estimate.
