This is pretty pathetic straw man., often the default argument of liberal NPCs. No one thinks the wall is going to magically stop it.

I don't think voting will do it.

These corrupt elites are dug in. We need to carve them out at the root.

That means violent uprising.

Government works for the citizens. Not multi-national corporations or "our allies".

American citizens are priority number one. Period.
I agree. I want to at least have an ideal to stand behind that doesn't = 1 giant world government where everyone is forced into an African peasants standard of living.

This is a dumb point, even stopping a bit pays for itself in welfare and social services for every anchor baby and parent.

I'll say it again: the wall is a do-nothing gesture meant to mollify the conservative voting base into believing their politicians are working on the problem.

In reality, Donald Trump and others like him will continue hiring illegals to clean their hotels and pick their crops, and illegals will continue to come, because they know "lucrative" work is available to them.

No, the progressive liberal alternative of porous borders and unlimited illegal asylum is not a good idea. But that doesn't make the wall anything other than a $5+ billion waste of money.

A tiny little wall isn't going to mollify anyone. It's been clearly conveyed, however, that Trump isn't the one to blame for nothing being done. When the recriminations start coming out for 2020 narratives, Trump can certainly offer up congress as the guilty party.

you can't beat a smartwall with anything short of EMP and some sort of anti aircraft fire.

Overstaying a legal visa doesn't allow ppl to just waltz in with an arbitrarily large amount of cargo.

Hope this helps liberal
