Angel: Why have you decided that the wall between Mexico and the United States of America must be built?

Demon: Because it was an election promise that I made. Those who voted for me expect me to keep my promises. I keep my promises…don’t you Angels?

Angel: You did promise a wall but you also said that Mexico would pay for it. The question now is not over the wall, but who pays for it.

Demon: Yes, well I must have miscalculated how good kind and honest Mexicans are. I wanted them to pay for the wall and they are not doing what I want. But this proves what bad, very bad, people they are and why we need to keep them out. And all the other South American criminal gangs who want to come to live in our beautiful country. You know they sell drugs and murder? Is that okay for angels?

Angel: You have declared a state of National Emergency today. Is that to get around the Democrats who are blocking your demand for money to build the wall?

Demon: Demoncrats? Do you want to see American children murdered? We all love little human children don’t we? I know I do.

Angel: By most definitions, an emergency results from unseen circumstances. Undocumented migrants have been entering the USA – well since the Founding Fathers. How is it that undocumented immigration is suddenly ‘unexpected’?

Demon: Now you are just playing with words. I say what I mean and I mean to build a wall.

Angel: Even if you have to go against the checks and balances in the American Constitution?

Demon: Especially if the elite are stopping the will of the people. That’s in the Constitution too.

Angel: I’ve looked in Wikipedia and it says that undocumented immigrants increase the size of the U.S. Economy, contribute to economic growth, enhance the welfare of natives, contribute more to tax revenue than they collect, reduce American firms’ incentives to offshore jobs and import foreign-produced goods and benefit consumers by reducing the prices of goods and services.

Demon: Lies, all lies.

Angel: There is also evidence that immigrants commit less crime than natives and that enforcing illegal immigration has no effect on crime rates.

Demon: Are you making this up? Because if you are, I don’t think angels should be lying, do you?

Angel: Have you made a study on whether the wall will do what you expect it to? Will it be good value for money?

Demon: I’m never wrong. I don’t need a study to prove me right. The people voted for me. Are you saying they were wrong? That’s anti-democratic.

Angel: Let us imagine a wall. A wall that people cannot tunnel under, climb over, make holes in or go around at the ends…

Demon: Don’t need to imagine it. I can see it everyday in my mind. Gleaming and sturdy.

Angel: Let us imagine such a miraculous wall as you want…how will this change the status of those undocumented immigrants already inside the U.S.A.? How will it capture those who Visa overstay or violated their border crossing cards?

Demon: Let’s keep criminals out first, then we can P.U.R.G.E the aliens already here. I will make the holocaust look like a holoday camp. That’s good…get it?

Angel: And those seeking political asylum, who are now branded criminals. Those who handed themselves over to Border Control Agents were charged with criminal entry and if they had children with them, they were removed to detention centres.

Demon: Sounds like the reason the America people voted for to me. If you have a problem, then vote Democrat next time round.

Angel: We don’t vote.

Demon: Well there you are then. If you don’t buy a lottery ticket you won’t win the lottery. You know that’s true even if you don’t believe in democracy.
