Blanket policies and acts generally don't work...so a policy of build a complete wall is foolish.
I am sure there is already a wall/fence in place in well-populated areas, so I'm not sure if he plans to strengthen those or what, but if he is envisioning a great wall of china type ordeal that is just a waste. There's a million ways to get around it. They'll switch to boats. They'll make larger tunnels. They will keep flying into the US on visas then staying when the visa expires. They'll attack the wall when the border patrol isn't watching. A wall is just a feel-good concept to make people feel better.

Not just that but why not use that money to expand the fleet, put more boots on the ground, throw in more motion sensors, maybe develop or even expand technology that helps them detect tunnels (which are already a major source of contraband coming north).

Thanks. Nice edit btw, . I gave up on the Drumpf name a while ago, it seems like nobody cares about that one. Glad to see somebody is still using it.
