    Idiot Dem analysis is generally singular, meaningless, static and underdeveloped.

    What these fool ET foreign trolls do not get is asylum requests are now processed up there in Guatemala. Also, not mentioned is a lot of caravan illegals are going back to their countries once, they find out that there is no easy way to get those freebies as before? You got that right bumpkin. The screws are tightening. Smugglers will still be smugglers but, even they will charge more just because the going has gotten tougher? $5 ladders right but, how much will they charge people now to help them go up the ladder and get to the other side in one piece? An extra $500 each illegal? I bet you a lot of illegals will find that the cost is just way too much. Probably, a lot of them will chance swimming in the Colorado River and drowning in the process.

    Domestically produced ladders so they fall under the new Nafta bullshit agreement. México must put controls on the sale of rebar and nylon roap plus bring a 20 year manditory sentence in for trafficking it?

    The fence is very bad value as a tool except to hard right Israelis who want the US to have a wall too so their (actual wall) looks better. Tail wagging dog bigly again.

    Also Trump being a vain authoritarian wants something really big with his name on it (and money in the pockets of his friends).

    You are a sucker.

    And no, massive sections of it will not have razor wire. Even if retrofitted, that is also no problem whatever to bypass. On the ground it has been shown to provide a good screen from cameras while guys are cutting and jacking the beams. They will also just steal it.

    I wonder if once built the cost of wall plus maintenance plus the army of security agents will outweigh the merits of simply allowing immigrants in and giving them a job.
    Place them in remote locations for construction work - 10 years minimum, that way they earn their right to live in USA.

    They tried that during Bush's term, Fox just had way too much sway on the electorate post-911 so it became more profitable and tenable to scapegoat instead. Trump just made the GOP double down on it instead of trying to win the "hearts & minds" of immigrants.
