40 billion dollars is a wee bit more than a little white picket fence!!! LoL
Are you blind? Have you not seen the Sample Walls??? Those are NOT good neighbor picket fences!!!

BTW, you want to see a burden on the American taxpayer, wait till all the i******s are gone?!?! LoL

Get a clue there SS. We are not looking for good neighbor picket fences. I have no clue where you ever got that idea. We are looking for a barrier to keep undesirable people out of America unless they have permission to be here. Permission is pretty easy to get; just fill out the proper forms and wait until your name is called. How tough is that. But you on the Left, like the Millennial fools in America today, want instant gratification. You don't even want i*****l a***ns to have to wait any longer than a minute or two before they are across the border in their new Uncle Sam condo's with at least BA degrees forthcoming as well as the commensurate pay that goes with it.

Yes, I know you Liberals TELL us that these people are saving us money by us having to pay for their housing, food, education and so on, and that the taxes paid by a very few make up for all of the Billions America spends on them. Sorry but that is simply a lie. There are ways that these people can come to America, work and then leave. But that isn't good enough for the Left.

Wh**ever the wall costs it will be cheaper than constantly paying for the education, food, housing etc. of Millions of i*****l a***ns. Pay once and be done with it.

Have a wonderful day,

And here’s the proof, if you empty your head, put duct tape tightly over your mouth and try to RANT forcibly enough, it will eventually billow out the other end!!! LoL

""The vast majority of the drug that enters from Mexico does so through “ports of entry”—the 48 official land crossings through which millions of people, vehicles, and cargo pass every day. “Heroin seizures almost predominantly are through the port of entry and either carried in a concealed part of a vehicle or carried by an individual,” then-U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Gil Kerlikowske told a congressional committee last year. “We don’t get much heroin seized by Border Patrol coming through, I think just because there are a lot of risks to the smugglers and the difficulty of trying to smuggle it through,” he said.

“The most common method employed by Mexican TCOs [T***snational Criminal Organizations] involves t***sporting drugs in vehicles through U.S. ports of entry (POEs),” the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) reported in its 2016 National Drug Threat Assessment. “Illicit drugs are smuggled into the United States in concealed compartments within passenger vehicles or commingled with legitimate goods on tractor trailers,” according to the document.

Heroin is small in volume. “It’s a relatively small amount—40-50 tons, we think—of heroin that feeds the heroin epidemic in the United States,” Gen. John Kelly, then the commander of U.S. Southern Command, told a Senate committee in 2015. The amount has probably increased somewhat today, but still takes up little space: all the heroin consumed in the United States in an entire year could probably fit into two 40-foot shipping containers.""

Typical, like others here from the Left, you don't discuss; you simply throw out insults. Why am I not surprised?

Are you not gifted with a brain to carry on a conversation without me or someone asking specific questions? FYI that was a specific question. Normally, with normal people, answers are forthcoming.

Back it up with facts, not your opinion. The fence is to keep out the invaders AND drugs. Get it? No one says the fence will stop all drugs or all i******s, but it is a good start.

Time for the Trumpians to realize that the "wall" isn't for protection against the invading Mongols, it's a political charade for the red hat crowd.
It will accomplish very little in the way of safety and certainly won't even put a dent in the drug trafficking.

Elaine2025 Loc: Seattle, Wa

Well little Frankie, you prophesize freely and often. It doesn't make you right.

dennis2146 Loc: Eastern Idaho

I can't imagine then why Bill and Hillary, Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer have all stated their desire for a wall. Can you?

Note, they didn't say they wanted a wire fence just to delineate the border from America to Mexico. They said a wall, just exactly as Trump is saying now. Golly gee whillikers with a Jiminy Cricket thrown in for good measure, could they have flip flopped their decision so that the Left could get the Hispanic v**e? Just one of those things that make people go, Hmmmmmm.
