Appeasement is a terrible idea with egomaniacs. Not trying to Godwin here, but that philosphy was used with Germany and Hitler in the 30's and ut only led to more outrageous demands. I am not saying that this will turn Trumo into literal Hitler, but rather that appeasing egomaniacs doesn't work. $5.7 billion for a tiny bit of wall today, of which he didn't even provide construction plans for, could easily lead to this shit happening later this year again over an even larger sum of money. For pity's sake, we don't even know how he actually plans to use the money in any sort of exact sense aside from "build a small part of the wall".
