Guy on the Intertubes who thinks a steel slat fence is going to stop an army long enough for the military to mobilize and deploy from a base dozens, perhaps hundreds, of miles away.
Border States don t want the Wall ... because what is built there already, encroaches on their private property.
Has been a problem since the matter began regardless of the President in office.
Lawsuits have been going on for years and years
Look. Trump is a bad man. A very bad man.
He is well aware of these problems surrounding getting a Wall built.
Every step he takes is suspect. Keeping the government shutdown is ideal to slowly strangling all theinvestigations $$.$$ into HIM. He is carrying out Whitiker s idea, that Whitiker presented on world widetelevision.
It s the new crime wave. Right in front of our eyes.
I think you're right. He's flailing about in desperation to divert attention from the coming tsunami of indictments and incriminating evidence from the Special Counsel. And in the meantime he's willing to drag the entire country down with him.
LOL. I love the claim that walls are effective. What nonsense. Walls completely stopped being effective once gunpowder and other technologies came about. The only modern wall thats remotely effective is Israels, and thats more about a TON of people with guns manning it. History for the most part has shown over and over again that walls do not work.
China has a amazing wall...that utterly failed. Trying to claim walls work is the sort of nonsense stated by someone who didn't learn from history, and instead believes nonsense because they want it to be true.
Not to mention all the tunnels that we find every year for smuggling drugs. Google it. They are found often, and if the wall was was made 'impenetrable' (haha), even more would pop up. Never think that any type of obstacle will stop people from doing what they are desperate to accomplish...

This isn't going to work. He needs something bigger-like parking a carrier off the islands China has taken, and daring them to do something about it. With orders to the carrier group to not back down, and to defend themselves aggressively. You know, large casualty type things.

That could be next if his wall gambit doesn't work.

Well, in October of 1961 myself and a bunch of other lucky soles got a free trip to Berlin. I forget what that was about. Oh yeah, East Germany built a wall and it was pretty damn effective ! Those that tried to scale that wall were shot. Some made it across but not that many. I'm not saying that the Berlin wall was right, it wasn't. It was built to keep people in not out. But a wall that is patrolled properly can at least slow down illegals. Hungary recently built walls to keep migrants out and it was effective too. The funny thing is that if Mexicans try to get into the US the legal way, it's fine, but mobs forcing their way in is not.
We have high fencing already and the area between AZ 92 and the fence is packed with sensors. The Border Patrol in my sector (San Pedro and Sulpher Springs Valleys south and west of the Tucson Sector) is incredibly effective. They’re all over the place like ants.
Our sector is mountainous, which presents serious natural challenges to illegals. The BP uses horses, ATVs, side by sides, motorcycles and a dizzying array of equipment to catch illegals and smugglers.
It’s nothing like what people imagine. If you go down to the Naco Sector Border fence, you wouldn’t see a soul. The media makes it sound as if thousands of people are climbing the fences at all times. It’s not like that. They use specialized routes that switch up all the time.
Not to mention that the vast majority of the folks who are not officially authorized to stay - simply just overstay their visas. It's not about physical borders or barriers.
