He just promised to construct physical barriers to prevent illegals from crossing in the first place. Barriers. New patrol roads, new vehicle barriers, more fencing in urban areas to stop human smuggling corridors. Allocated 70 million dollars for this.

Not bad.

Only $70 million? That's an insult.

re promise to construct barriers.....

I believe his words included the phrase "where needed".

Sounds a bit to me like defining the word is.

Better than nothing but still a pittance. If the FedGov can cough up ~$3 billion of our tax dollars for digital set-top converters then they should be able to come up with more for border barriers.
