    It necessitates the creating of said tunnels, which by their very nature are more limited and thus can create a choke point. That's what walls do, create choke points.

    Yet it will not stop immigrants until it is discovered.

    The fact that they have to dig a tunnel shows that a wall makes it hard to walk across

    With a more complete wall tunnels will be easier to spot and close. That is where the drones and electronic surveillance come in

    You answered your own question if you would think.

    You know walls do work. That is what you fear

    The wall is not designed to stop immigrants. A wall would make it far more difficult for illegals to enter our country.
    Yes, there will be tunnels, mostly dug by the drug running cartels or smugglers. The wall would keep the "caravans"
    of illegals out since most wouldn't be bringing the tools required to dig tunnels along with them.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    the Central American Minor's program made any children that had parents in the United States apply for asylum at the local embassy in their home country. All Trump had to do was to expand the program to all asylum-seekers. Trump canceled the program. he's advocating building the wall because he knows simple minded folk like you aren't very educated or thoughtful about what's going on.

    It’s simplistic and simple-minded to suggest asylum-seekers are the only issue at the border.

    He should have canceled the program, screw these asylum seekers if they can't wait in line like others who wish to become citizens.
    You call me simpleminded and not very educated. Don't you have a door at the entrance of your residence? Is it a deterrence to keep
    those you wish not to enter out?
    It's a fact that the ignorant resort to using the "simple minded, uneducated, etc." accusations because you have no legitimate argument.

    That's true but I never said they're the only issue. we also know that drugs and smuggling have to do with the ports of entry which has nothing to do with the wall.

    You forgot human trafficking.

    Kind of hard to smuggle humans in at ports of entry.
