The Chinese built a wall over varying terrain a, before Christ, with rocks. I’m pretty confident a wall on the Southern border will be ok.
As nice as it would be to have, with the addition of a wide and deep moat, filled with alligators and piranhas, we wouldn’t need it if we got rid of Birthright Citizenship, the refugee programs and took all the bennies away that go with both.

It’s worth it at 10x the cost.

One of the main raison d’etre of the fed gubbermint and yet they can’t/won’t build a wall(Not faulting Trump here). They refuse to protect the country from invasion or protect the American people...
150 billion dollars for terrorists in Iran?—No problem. 10 trillion dollars of extra debt over 8 years?—No problem.

It will be worth it’s weight in gold when the Mexican civil war/cartel war kicks into high gear someday soon.

“Factors like a varying terrain and land ownership had not been taken fully into account, the report said, which drive up costs. “
Then go as far south into Mexico as needed...Take their land and make the wall as continuous as possible. After all, Mexico is at war with the U.S.

I like the way you think. Land mines on the border would also be very cost effective.

It will cost what it costs and be worth every penny. I read somewhere that illegals cost us about 5 times the cost of the border wall each and every year!

What you said plus add additional funds and add additional people from those more than willing to contribute money and/or their efforts to volunteer to BUILD THE WALL!
