* If the 9th circuit doesn't stop any/all construction
* If environmental impact reports and legal costs don't eat up all $25 billion

If the wall it going to happen they need to give amnesty AFTER building. Anyone who votes for amnesty-first doesn't really intend to have the wall built. Even appropriating $25 billion won't do it since it will be in courts until a future Dem congress cancels the appropriated money.
Amnesty doesn't have to wait for the entire wall.
1) Build a mile
2) Give amnesty to 1000 dreamers
3) Build another mile
4) Another 1000 dreamers get amnesty
...
That'll get Dems who care about amnesty to help build the wall. Assuming there are Dems who want amnesty and aren't just using it for politics.

There is 1960 miles of that border. Redo the math, please.

With your numbers, that opens things up for 1,960,000 ‘Dreamers......WAAAAY too many.
