Governors in Arizona and Texas tried that and the Obama administration and justice department smacked them down.
90% of the hardcore drugs come through the border..... most of the human trafficking in the U.S. comes through the border.....the majority of the 20 million illegals in our country came through the border.
any other country would treat it as an emergency.......countries have gone to wars for much less.
It wasn't an emergency then and it isn't now.
I've already posted a fact check about that 90% of drugs. Please review.
90 percent of the heroin sold in the United States comes from Mexico, virtually all of it comes through legal points of entry. “A small percentage of all heroin seized by CBP along the land border was between Ports of Entry (POEs),” the Drug Enforcement Administration said in a 2018 report. So Trump’s wall would do little to halt drug trafficking. Trump’s repeated claim that the wall would stop drug trafficking is another Bottomless Pinocchio claim.
The 2017 DEA National Drug Assessment Threat very clearly states that the most common method employed for bringing drugs into this country involves transporting illicit drugs through US ports of entry in passenger vehicles with concealed compartments or commingled with legitimate goods on tractor trailers. Drugs from Columbia (heroin) are coming in by land and air. Let's not forget the famous El Chapo tunnels.
A wall will do nothing to fix any of that. Nothing. People seeking asylum at the border are not going to try to carry drugs into the country.
Facts and common sense matter.
So liberals want wide open borders allowing the entire continent of South and central America to enter into our country costing us billions upon billions of dollars... Let's just allow hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants into our country every month. Isn't this country crowded enough? Don't we have enough debt? I just can't understand why liberals want our country to resemble Guatemala in time. Soon America will be a third world country if we let liberals get their way. Sounds like democrats just want power and votes. Look what's happening in cities like Fayetteville Arkansas with the hospitals and the local schools trying to keep up with all the non-english-speaking children entering into the schools by the truckloads. This is insanity.
The problem has been getting worse. After Trump was elected the numbers fell off but have crept back up. It’s always been a crisis for those of us who have been following this stuff for years. 25% of the entire Central American population now lives in the US illegally. Central America is amongst the poorest and most violent regions in the world.

Democrats don't care. They just want power and future votes. They're going to turn this country into a third world country in time.
The only Emergency is the village idiot in the White house making up Hysteria about a wall that Mexico was supposed to pay for.
so you want hundreds of thousands of illegal Central Americans entering into our country every month? Maybe they can all move to your community. Sanctuary for the entire world. This is an invasion going on in our southern border.
A 2016 report by the Government Accountability Office confirmed that the government had completed the fence by 2015.[10] A 2017 GAO report noted: "In addition to the 654 miles of primary fencing, CBP has also deployed additional layers of pedestrian fencing behind the primary border fencing, including 37 miles of secondary fencing and 14 miles of tertiary fencing.

that is a lie.....90%? how do they get that number.......in order to get that number you need all the drugs that entered the U.S. that comes through the legal points and compare that to the ones that entered the illegal points.......plus you need the manifesto of all of the drugs that come out of Mexico and their routes and methods to come up with any number and the Mexican drug cartels are not going to supply that to the DEA or Border Patrol.
those numbers are a guess just like the numbers to guess how many illegals are in the country.
