In 2015 U.S. Presidential candidate Donald Trump issued a proposal to build a wall along the Mexico-U.S. border. The wall would extend along the 1,900 mile border and would prevent illegal goods and people from entering the U.S. In 2013 the Government Accountability Office reported that the border patrol had intercepted 61% of individuals who had attempted to cross the border that year. Analysts say that building a wall along the entire border is impossible since it parts of it contain rocky, uneven terrain. Proponents argue that the wall will cut down on the flow of illegal immigrants and drugs into the U.S. Opponents argue that the wall is impossible to build and illegal immigration into the U.S. has declined significantly since the 2008 financial crisis.

No, but abolish the 1965 immigration system and establish a brand new immigration system that will benefit the American people.

No, but increase border patrol, and improve our visa program. A wall would be a waste of money.
@9438QSR4yrs4Y
No, but we should abolish the 1965 immigration system and establish a brand new immigration system that will benefit the American people.

No, but improve border patrol and our visa program. A wall would be overkill and a waste of money.
@9D8TB683yrs3Y
No, but increase our military presence along the southern border and the Canadian border and coasts too and we should mobilize the world to put a stop to sex drug and slave trafficking but let migrants across the border
