Miller is Trump's point man on immigration. He knows the subject far better than any one else. Wallace gets frustrated because he can't counter Miller's well-reasoned arguments.

The logical fallacy associated with the assertion that the wall need not be built to stop the flow of drugs because 90% of them are found at the point of entry, ergo we need to beef up further the ports of entry, is laughable. LOL.

Of course most of the drugs discovered at the point of entry because this is where we have most of our detection assets. We don't know the volume of drugs coming across our unprotected border because we don't have detection assets there. Logically, the amount could be even higher than being sent thru points of entry.

Why would the cartels send most of their drugs through the entry points that are monitored the most? And if we beef up the entry points even further, logic says that they will shift more of the drug traffic thru the unprotected areas of the border.

Wallace used some statistics showing that apprehensions at the border had declined to a mere 400,000 a year. And the rule of thumb is that for every illegal alien apprehended at the border, two get through without being apprehended. This is an invasion. What country would continue to allow hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens to cross our borders annually?

The Dems. need new uninformed voters to be dependent on government and willing to register with a “D” next to their name. The need for new voters, outweighs the fact it is against the current law.

I’m sure he never calculated the cost of those 400,000 and the numbers we don’t know about to us the taxpayers re schooling, health care, social security etc.

400,000 of anything isn’t something to casually disregard,
