Trump is only proposing a wall in California, Arizona, and New Mexico. The existing wall has already greatly reduced illegal crossings there, and the bulk of illegal traffic has shifted and now comes across the Rio Grande in Texas. Trump is not proposing a wall on the Rio Grande.
BTW, this is what part of the current Arizona wall looks like. It's a joke.
Architects have already said it's not possible to build or even afford the wall in our lifetime. He's still under this delusion that Mexico is going to even build the wall or have the budget to do so. The Mexican border is 2,000 miles and he wants to build a concrete wall over ten feet tall in the eight years. Lol
Lol...why build a wall when there is network of tunnels spanning though California, Arizona, Texas, and New Mexico. That's like putting a band aid on a open wound that requires stitches......to dumb it down for trump supporters, it's pointless.
Read it this morning in our paper and I was between laughing and feeling sorry for him. He lives in his own little world.
made me laugh but let's be honest, it's not true at all, Trump has very clear plans on illegal immigration, international deals, the military, the outsourcing, budget unbalance etc
he said many times since the beginning.
Those breaks in the fence are at dry river beds that flash flood and/or have seasonal flow. This is one of the challenges of making a YUGE impenetrable wall. How do you account for water flow? Block all the rivers?

Did you not see the video? Those breaks are where that existing fence was recently opened allowing everything to come through up to 6 ft in height. It has nothing to do with dry river beds to let water through. Don't put your own spin on this to make it fit your narrative. The rancher even says it was recently opened up and several trucks per day come right through filled will illegal drugs through his property. What's wrong with you?

I live in the desert. Those are river beds. Are you saying they aren't?
You can also tell by the yellow tape, Bobcat on the hill, and track threads that this is a work zone and a temporary situation.
I live in the desert also and I know quite well what a dry riverbed looks like. That was never a solid wall but built with vertical posts narrowly spaced apart to allow water and small animals through. The fence has been reconstructed with wide open gapes 6 ft high running along the bottom purposely to allow people and small trucks through as they wish with no restrictions.
The video doesn't lie, as much as you would like to make up your own narrative for it.
We don't build thousands of miles of public walls in the middle of the dessert -- on land that belongs to private citizens.
John Oliver covered it in detail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vU8dCYocuyI
AWESOME! You use a comedians viewpoint to make a case which doesn't exist.
Hmm, obviously Obama never heard of the black market for guns, but hey, maybe we don't need a wall at all. If just having gun control laws would stop terrorists, who are in the middle of planning a terrorist attack, from carrying out the attack, since we know it worked in [gun controlled] Paris, then certainly banning all guns would stop the terrorists and other illegals from sneaking into this country in the first place. We don't need no stinking wall, just take everyone's guns and that will solve our terrorist and illegal problems. Maybe John Oliver should do a skit about that, and then people like MTAtech could rally around it.
