How about The Wall? Is that helping yet?
People keep mentioning the wall. The wall is not to stop people from getting in, it is to represent our sovereignty. There are 40 other walls up in countries around the world to conflict crime, anti-terrorism, drug smuggling, and illegal immigration.

It’s like the Great Wall of China. It was built to protect China from its enemies and invaders from the North, especially the Mongols. Despite the wall, the Mongols eventually conquered China.
We live in a mechanized world now. Illegals can fly over it easily. Our wall is there to tell the people to the south that this is as far as you can go before you are trespassing and you are not supposed to be north of this. This leaves no doubt to anyone where they are and what they hare doing wrong. It is not to physically stop them. It can only cut down the numbers by making it harder to go north. It’s a figure head, not a cop. And it’s doing fine at the moment getting the point across.
But previous administrations and states lack of over site, intentional or not, has “opened the borders” so much that people now travel in mass to try to get in as they are misinformed about how they can succeed in our economy and are walking right through a country that has an amnesty program, Mexico, to get here. It has nothing to do with amnesty or immigration. It has to do with financial success and the future of their family’s wealth, not subsistence. And in a vast majority of cases, it damns the illegals to failure and the need to violate our laws further just to stay alive.
