I doubt it because a wall will probably cost tens of billions to build and maintain. Deportation is going to be in the range of hundreds of billions.

As others have noted, we spend more money on welfare in ONE WEEKEND than it costs to build the wall. If we want to build it, it will get done. The price is trivial. And so is the net cost, since we won’t require nearly as many border agents as an open border requires, once the wall is completed.
