Trump: ‘I’m Asking Today, Joe Biden, to Please Stop Selling the Wall’

President-elect 👤Donald Trump has a message for President 👤Joe Biden: “Please stop selling the wall.”

During a news conference on Monday, Trump addressed the Biden administration selling off unused materials of the border wall.

“We’re going to spend hundreds of millions of dollars more on building the same wall we already have,” Trump said. “It’s almost a criminal act. They know that we’re going to use it and if we don’t have it we’re going to have to rebuild it and it will cost double what it cost years ago and that’s hundreds of millions of dollars.”

The president-elect added, “I spoke with the Attorney General of Texas, I spoke with the Senators of Texas, I spoke to a lot of people and hopefully they’ll be able to stop it. We’re going to be having a restraining order.”

“I’m asking today, 👤Joe Biden, to please stop selling the wall,” Trump said.

Check out Trump’s remarks below:

Per ABC News, a measure in the National Defense Authorization Act that Congress previously passed “allows for the sale or donation of the items to states on the southern border, providing they are used to refurbish existing barriers, not install new ones.”

Trump’s remarks came after The Daily Wire exclusively reported border wall parts were being sold off in public auctions.
