"Donald can call it a “wall” for political purposes at this point, but I think most Americans who are trusting him to keep his word, understand that the final shape of that barrier may be substantially different. We just want an impenetrable barrier erected, and some real enforcement teeth put back into our immigration laws. If Trump achieves those things, I don’t care what he calls it."

I agree. I was making the point that "The Wall" has a negative connotation for the "undecideds" and maybe call it something else. Fence? Barrier? American Sovereign Support? Just think the word turns of many who would otherwise support Trump. Plus, he needs to talk specifics as to where and what type of barrier. Again, think California double fence.

In my opinion, those who are turned off by Trump’s talk of a wall, will be equally turned off by talk of any impenetrable barrier to illegal immigration.

People who are already that soft in the head, and not cognizant of the fact that our nation is effectively being colonized, probably won’t be swayed by mere semantic labels.

Even worse, Trump would lose the rock solid support of ten times more Americans who do understand what’s at stake, if he softened one iota on his promise.

He can’t do this now. It will have to be a part of the negotiating process with Congress, the budget, and bare bones reality, AFTER the election.

"". . .The Wall" has a negative connotation for the "undecideds" . . .<

Anyone who using the term "wall" bothers would squeal like a stuck pig over anything with RAZOR wire atop it.
