If the Republicans want a wall, they are going to have to compromise on the illegal immigrants already here. The Democrats in the Senate will filibuster any bill that only is a wall, and deport everyone not here legally. Trump can beat his chest all he wants on the campaign trail. If he is elected president, God save us, he has to compromise, a word he doesn't have in his head, with people that don't agree with him, and have the power to stop him.
Trump is nothing, but noise, and funny faces.
There are not hoards of illegals coming across the southern border. The number of illegals hasn't changed much in past seven plus years. Can this statement be proven? No. But can the statement that hoards are coming across be proven? No. That statement is pure speculation. It depends on, which side of the wall, you are standing on, and who are listening to.

Ask the Americans who live along or near the boarders.
How about the daily camera views showing lines of people coming across at night.
So is it OK that only 60% of all coming are doing so illegally? Of course not.
The wall does not fix the problem. It is a neccessary start that sends the message, the open door policy is no more.
Next the boarder patrol needs to be directed to enforce the laws on immigration currently on the books. No paper work or wrong paper work turn around and hit the road.
Visa is expired? Get ready because to be checked upon and sent back when found.
One the boarders are closed and secured and the existing laws enforced we can determine what to do about the illegals that have lived here illegally for many years. They cannot remain in illegal status. That does not mean deport automatically. It means a determination to be made on what it takes to remain.
Those who are arguing aginst the wall are unfortunately victims of the partisan vote pandering offense.
