“We all knew the Wall was a metaphor for a multi-pronged solution.”

WE? Got a mouse in your pocket?

Maybe >YOU< thought the wall was a metaphor, but no one else did.

If border crossings dropped to zero, WE STILL WANT THE WALL.

If true that Kelly was upset Trump fired Comey, WE HAVE REALLY BIG PROBLEMS, FOLKS.

All I can say is 'WTF' because I am giving up hope there is ANYONE besides Trump who reflects the views of patriotic Americans.

Damn near everyone in DC has been compromised by Hillary, Wasserman and their DIRT SNIFFER AWAN. GOTTA BRING IN REGULAR PEOPLE OFF THE STREET WHO HAVEN'T BEEN CORRUPTED BY THE DEEP STATE IN DC..

If the news was reporting things rightly then everyone would know the wall ‘IS’ being built.....gets really tiring hearing all the chatter over if or not it’s being built. People need to check it out for themselves.

Part of building the wall is reinforcing the weak areas and also building up the areas where the traffic is the heaviest.

Just in San Diego alone Border Patrol agents arrested more than 31,000 “illegal aliens” and seized more than 9,000 pounds of marijuana and 1,317 pounds of cocaine last year.

The idea is to stop the drug traffic as well as stop the illegals.

But as we have already found out, a virtual fence stops virtually no one.

The Dems want a VIRTUAL wall because IT CAN EASILY BE UNDONE BY A FUTURE DEMONRAT PRESIDENT. It is MUCH more difficult to UNDO a REAL “BIG BEAUTIFUL (and permanent) WALL” once it’s in place.

He won’t get re-elected if he doesn’t build the wall. Kelly should shut up unless he is trying to politically ruin Trump with his base.

for the next time a Democrat gets elected president
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Or the next time we have a Bush in the White House.

The ineligible George P Bush (mother was still a Mexican national when he was born) is lurking in Texas awaiting his chance to turn us into North Mexico, since his dad lost his chance.

If true, Trump will drop in popularity and WILL NOT have a chance at being re-elected.

He will be seen as just another phony politician who said what he had to in order to win votes.

"If we start seriously enforcing immigration law and kicking out the illegal immigrants, we may not need a wall."

Without a wall, the illegal alien criminal invaders will just return. Some have been deported as many as 20 times.

The wall shouldn't even be up for debate. The promise to build the wall is what put Trump in the white house. If he doesn't start making progress on it his base (including me) will turn against him. He is already on thin ice.

What is needed is a barrier like the Saudi’s erected on the border with Yemen and Syria and like the Indians have erected on the border with Pakistan.

I don't care how the molecules arranged, as long as it works.

Whatever choices of wall, fence, aerial monitoring, motion sensors etc are installed, as most fitting and effective for every location along the border, I think the public will accept as a "wall."

There is room for compromise — build a real wall and call it a virtual barrier. Everyone is happy!

A real wall provides a barrier that will be more difficult for future open-boarder presidents to circumvent. The virtual wall General Kelly is advocating for can be left wide open and unpatrolled the next time a Democrat is in office.
