The current construction is superior to the old, but it is still a temporary metal barrier that can easily be cut through, torn down, or just as likely allowed to disintegrate.

Is there anyone here who, if they stop to think about it, can’t imagine large sections of the ‘wall’ going missing in critical easily crossing locations under a Democrat president?
