Right, makes no sense. Hopefully he is also working on the power grid bc that is more important than a wall that probably doesn't do much but get the base excited to shoot their load--like I presume is going on here. What a waste of resources...

I am not for open borders and against this wall.
I don’t know anyone who is for open borders. Do you?

Without the Border Wall, the illegal aliens from Mexico are going to flood into the United States indefinitely.

We will eventually become like the rest of the Latin American countries. No question about it.

How can a wall separating the United States from a foreign country be controversial to any American?

The only people who are likely to be opposed to building such a wall are those who don't believe in the national sovereignty of the United States.

We don’t have a wall between Canada. Most countries don’t have walls over thousands of miles. It is actually pretty rare.
Does that mean that they all don’t believe in sovereignty?

Absolutely. The wall works.

No one knows that better than the citizens of Texas. They are all for it and support it. They are even donating their land for the wall. They know it works. They see the difference in illegal traffic. Whatever deters the illegals the better.

Whatever Biden is doing at the border isn't working. lol He says it's closed. You can't fix stupid. He's stupid enough to think we believe he doesn't want it open. What an idiot he is.

Can Americans go over to Canada and get free benefits just by stepping foot into their country?

Most illegals are coming through our southern border not our northern one anyway. Any coming through Canada pales in comparison but the pro-illegals do like to bring up that lame argument anyway.

As for other countries their numbers of illegal aliens also pale in comparison to ours. We have the biggest threat of terrorism here to.
