Very few will be against it, so very little ED will be necessary
Some of the land won't have a clear title, and that will have to be unsnarled. Some landowners will think the government isn't offering enough. Some landowners may be against it because it cuts off access to their source of irrigation water. Some property will be owned by contentious heirs who can't agree on anything. Some landowners will be against it out of sheer contrariness.
Trump will be long out of office and they will still be working on land acquisition.

Have you ever been to our border? It's a desert, no one is being displaced

Somebody still owns the land, and they will have to be dealt with.

Many of those property owners would gladly sell a few acrest to the government for real border security.

Not sure you realize how often eminent domain happens.

Many, or even most, will. But hundreds or thousands will object for one reason or another, and each one will require ED. It will take a lot longer than most supporters realize, and that will run up against Trump's successor agreeing with and continuing his policy.
Assuming Trump himself is serious about it in the first place.

Does that change anyone's opinion or are you still cool with it?
If ever there was a good reason for imminent domain to be used, this would be it.

Why would they need a wall in Texas? They have the Rio Grande? They only need a wall along the terrestrial border, most of which is public land. Also, it's a wall, not a f&%king highway. It doesn't need a 1000 ft right of way.

The Rio Grande is wadeable in a lot of places.

It will need an access road for patrol and maintenance, and spur roads leading from it to the main highway. It's going to be a lot bigger than a ten foot strip along the border.

Considering it's Texas, an ant trail through your front yard would be more noticeable.

The easy answer is to build the wall on the United States side of the property of any border land owner that refuses to participate. Effectively allowing the landowner to keep their land, , but walling them into mexico!

I know you're joking, but you guys would howl if Obama had tried that for one of his pet projects.
