When the 30-day construction period ends next week, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials will begin testing each prototype for the unit's ability to prevent climbing, tunnelling, and destruction.
Trump never said that Mexico would pay for the prototypes. He said they'd pay for the wall itself. Once again, since you lefties continue to spin this, Trump never said Mexico would pay for it up front he said they would pay for it one way or another. As for me, I really don't care because it's much cheaper to build a $25 billion wall than to continue paying $113 billion a year for illegal aliens.
The "good" double walls already erected along shorter portions of the border have been very effective in deterring most illegal aliens. What you are speaking of are the other types of walls and flimsy fences that haven't been very effective. Here it is for you naysayers.
But numerous cities thru out the US have heroin epidemics going on right now...this means a whole lot of drugs are coming in CONSISTENTLY, do you realize how much dope is needed to keep an entire nation supplied, enough for multiple states to declare heroin epidemics?Doesnt seem like the walls/ fences we have are doing any good.

But at least they have a couple years of safety.
At our expense, of course.
Prior to this, they would have been working, contributing the economy, ...

I have to imagine most US law enforcement agencies do not support this wall, many of them heavily rely on the drug and smuggling war for their bread and butter, take out drug crime, drug related crime and border smuggling crime...what are they left with? Would it be enough to justify the HUGE budgets and numerous law enforcement agencies we have now?
