What does bother me and this goes to the crux. Neither party will even try to work together on anything, and each party takes turns simply chipping away at the constitution.

I think, but not sure the Mexican wall item was not necessary. Two bills to build "fencing" were passed in 2008 and 2010 but were never funded by congress.

"The Republican Party's 2012 platform stated that "The double-layered fencing on the border that was enacted by Congress in 2006, but never completed, must finally be built."[23] The Secure Fence Act's costs were estimated at $6 billion,[24] more than the Customs and Border Protection's entire annual discretionary budget of $5.6 billion.[25] The Washington Office on Latin America noted on its Border Fact Check site in about the year 2013 that the cost of complying with the Secure Fence Act's mandate was the reason it had not been completely fulfilled.["
