All of the wall is Bollard How do you continue to get more stupid
The DHS's OWN WEBSITE linked earlier in the thread clearly says it's not all bollard! And that only 14% of the first batch of funding went to bollard walls.
I'm not even arguing that the wall isn't a good idea or that it doesn't serve any function, because personally I am pro-border security, I'm just arguing that it's ridiculous that people think (1) the wall is 100% perfect, on schedule and on budget, and entirely consists of brand new tall-arse bollards in previously empty areas or where it used to be chicken wire and logs, and (2) the wall is 100% effective and would solve all illegal Mexican immigrant problems when a huge component of illegals is overstayed visas ( LINK 1 and LINK 2, and LINK 3 all from Fox News, so don't even try to call me out on "no data" and "no evidence"!), and even before the admittedly impressive drop in illegal border crossings thanks to Trump's policies, the illegal border crossings are nothing in comparison to overstayed visas. It's much more about image, building a big, impressive, photogenic wall than solving the illegal immigration crisis.
People accept NO shades of grey when it comes to Trump and this administration. Either it's 100% perfect or an absolute failure with no redeeming qualities.
