Rather than an expensive, permanent wall I would deploy the military to the border and keep them there until life improves in Mexico for their citizens.
Bulletin. The crossers are Central Americans, not Mexicans these days. Oh...that changed about a decade ago, maybe your cable is out.
Life is good here in MX where I live. MX won another World Cup game today. Cervezas all around
Building the Wall was the single biggest issue that distinguished Trump from the other candidates. This is what he got elected to do.
Most Americans do not want illegal aliens, drugs, violent gangs and possible terrorists coming into the United States from Mexico. Americans do not want the United States to become like the Latin American countries south of its border. If the Wall doesn't get built, then Trump's Presidency will be essentially meaningless.
Previously I thought the Mexicans were good people
But when I met a Mexican I found him a bad man
I think Mr. Trump has the right to look at the Mexicans

So, let's get this thing built!
Maybe you've forgotten that Republicans have the majority in both houses & the presidency. This is a GOP problem. In short Trump can't even persuade his own party that the money for his wall is warranted.
The Republicans could give Trump his money tomorrow, so why haven't they? I watched an interview with the Republican mayor of El Paso, he said that Trump's wall would not be effective and that taking young children from their parents to force congress into giving Trump the funds for the wall was despicable.
But as we all know, despicable describes Trump perfectly.

Hold it right there.
Trump said Mexico would pay for it. Every time he spoke about the wall he said Mexico would pay for it.
So, no. The American taxpayer shouldn’t have to pay a dime.
Who was supposed to pay for this wall? Mexico, Not Taxpayers. Trump drove that issue at his rallies. Now, Trump has lied about that too. After the Tax Scam he pushed through, where is the money coming from? Cuts to Medicare and Social security?

It is because of a lack of political will. $25 billion is a drop in a bucket for a country as rich as the United States.
The vast majority of Americans are against illegal immigration from Mexico. However, many people are confused about how to solve the issue. With a little persuasion, people can be convinced that the Wall is necessary to protect America’s people, its laws against illegal entry and its values. Plus, we need to work with Mexico to help reduce the flow of illegal immigration across that country as well.
We shouldn’t have to be put in a position where we have to detain thousands of illegal immigrants coming into the United States in the first place.
