It is just armchair analysis - no inside information. You are welcome to it - free advice is usually worth the price...
One warning - earlier I posited that SOUTHCOM would be the Unified Command of the US Military that might get involved in Southern Border Security/Border barrier construction, but after a bit of thought, it really should be NORTHCOM - which is charged with Homeland Defense.
Being SOUTHCOM Commanding General however, certainly makes General Kelly expert in how things work at that level in the military, and particularly knowledgeable about the specific threats on our Southern border, like drug cartels and human trafficers.
