A 2nd century wall in the middle of the southwestern desert in the age of cheap easy to fly drones??? Anyone wanting to spend my TAXPAYER dollars on such a concept is a YUGE idiot!! They have also never been to the desert along the border anywhere (nearly) west of Nogales. Or most places east of Nogales for a good long stretch (100's of miles). That idea (a wall stopping anything in that unpopulated terrain) is completely useless. A waste of taxpayer dollars. How can so-called Conservatives be so stupid with MY tax dollars??
When was the last time an illegal alien flew over the wall by drone?
Drugs fly over the border through drones.
Illegal immigrants don't.
Isn't the point to stop drugs?
I love how libs think a wall can only do one thing and it must do it 100% effective otherwise its a failure. Sad! What's a failure is a 50 year war on drugs and illegal immigration and nothing has changed, other than both have gotten worse after trillions of tax dollars have been spent.
The wall is intended to ebb the flow of drugs and immigrants from illegally entering the country and no one expects it to be 100% effective. The wall is only PART of the plan to reduce illegal drugs and illegal immigrants from entering the country. There's all kinds of other technologies that will also be used in conjunction with the wall and at airports and at shipping ports. There will also be deterrents like more border agents, more judges so there's no catch-and-release, e-verify, less visa applications issued, no lotteries from shithole countries, and no chain migration.
