You may want to do some research on that. They certainly do. They also have doctors, engineers, and scientists. Not sure what your point is.

Still, I would not be surprised if it came to the Wall getting added as a COMPROMISE to get Republicans on-board of Biden's Infrastructure Bill to get the Infrastructure rebuilding passed. Time will tell if that could be the case over the Biden Administration trying to push the bill on its own.

Either way.... I see it getting passed and COMPROMISE is ALWAYS A GOOD THING we lack today over complete demonizing and name-calling we were hearing for a few years that is hard for some to give up..... especially in this forum.

It is actually a FAILURE of the Trump Administration that the Wall was not built and during his years in office few miles even got built and with structure issues. If he wanted it bad enough and was this can-do kind of persona..... I would have expected it would have been built yet was not.... just a bit of opinion.

I still will always think of President Reagan saying to the Russian leaders about the Berlin Wall...... to Tear down that Wall vs build any.
The Berlin Wall? So you think all walls are equal? You really dont see the difference here?

If you need to build a wall to keep people in, you obviously have a really crappy country.

If you need to build a wall to keep people out, you must be doing something right.

You said covid is largely spread by those traveling in on a airplane, so by that, those from south of the border won’t be spreading to much covid. If not then let families get together, all schools opened and get back to normal. Just ban those flying in..

You might want to learn more about Covid. Nothing I said promotes your idea of letting families get together, not does it promote what you're implying of just letting people cross the border.

Glad you cleared it up, we agree just letting people cross the border without legal documentation shouldn’t be allowed.

Sure, but that has nothing to do with my post or even the OP. You've gone on some sort of self-fulfilling tangent.

The wall doesn't keep terrorists out. Most terrorists are internal or and more come here legally than through borders. Covid was largely spread by people arriving on airplanes. You might want to do a bit of research.
You said covid was largely spread by airplanes, sounds like you were implying that letting people cross the border doesn’t. Sorry if I misunderstood you, but after a year of not allowing and shaming family gatherings, churches being closed, schools closed, I get grumpy when the president is ok with allowing them to cross after campaigning on handling covid better.

Trump built a total of 450 miles of new wall. All but 50 replaced the wall built in 2007-10.

In June/ July, 2020, the customs/ Border agency disclosed the new wall was not achieving its goals. People were scaling it. Tunnels were dug underneath and chunks blown off.


No wall is high enough nor patrols deep enough so long as US businesses and people continue to hire undocumented people without consequences.
