Let us agree to disagree that the wall will present a stand of prevention....sort of like sand bags preventing a flood. Everybody knows the sand bags will not stop the flooding. They ALL know SOMETHING has to be done. And in many cases the sand bags will in fact reduce the amount of water getting through.
The border needs to be closed and controlled.....that is not a partisan statement. It is just a statement of fact. No, it is a statement of the laws of the land....REMEMBER.
I wonder if an evaluation of whether the Berlin wall was effective or not was done? Probably not. It would have no value added to the dems agenda.

Ok....sort if agree.
You skip the part about having Mexico pay.
EVERY SINGLE legislation placed on the table over the years, both from Republicans and Democrats has called for a physical looking barrier.
THAT would not even be discussed...it has been a part of legislation, and no party owns that.
The "rub" is, and always been...the cost. We are asking a foreign country to pay for our negligence....that's the issue, and I might remind you of the many debates on this issue over the past 40 years has been met with a barrier of cost.
Now we want to pass on our inability to pass legislation in our congress to another country.
I can't think of anyone opposed to any barrier, but the song and dance is about Mexico paying. Why should they ?
