How about we build it and then stick you on the other side of it and see if you can get back across.

All of the designs I saw have a steel plate at the top. How are they going to get babies and their baby mammas across?

It's not going to stop everyone. Shocker
So.....it is the babies and mamas that we’re trying to stop. Those gang members, rapists, Middle East terrorists, and cheap labor are welcome.....that’s border security for ya! Sweet stuff

It slows them down It limits numbers coming across It makes it easier for other methods, such as humans, to do their job. It's a barrier, not a force field

Maybe you should ask why everyone who voted againt that bill was a Republican, inluding McConnell. Why did John Boehner refuse to take it up in the House?

The border fencing was limited and was in exchange for a new worker visa class and a system to legalize undocumented immigrants in the US.

If that is all cool with you guys now then lets just reintroduce that bill and Trump can sign it.

Who is lying on various posts on this subject again? Who said large majority said supports border security? Who says dems don't? Hmmmmm

Ask the Chinese how well their walls worked. Xi laughed in the press when he heard about Trump's wall plans during the 2016 campaign. Any bunch of nomads that wanted in, got in, lording it over the Chinese until their dynasties were absorbed.

The Yuan Dynasty? Founded by a character known to us as Genghis Khan, held power for three centuries. Genghis didn't worry about walls getting in the way. The Manchu's, the final dynasty? They came from the north of Korea. They blew through those walls like they weren't there and ruled nearly 400 years.

A man who doesn't know the mistakes of the past is bound to repeat them. Trump has shown a remarkable ability to do just that.

Because these are totally apples to apples scenarios. [eyeroll]
