Look at the thing.. just look at it. This plus razor wire is what they're going to be building. New slat design maybe, but it's going to be the same. The idea that this will keep the guns, drugs, and violence out is an absolute laugh. A project of this nature will never be done again, never be approved, never be allowed. The voter demographics are already skewed. Build it all with the military budget or gtfo. To show you exactly what it's going to look like, see one break below.

Another massive problem with this is if you build it to the North of the Rio Grande or even our Border period (which is and has been done), you fully cede the River and that land.** The river is then going to turn into even more of a sewer, and the fish and wildlife are going to go fully extinct there. The invasive species are already bad enough. Further, the wall will be pointless, as anyone wanting to birth an anchor baby will only have to cross onto US territory, give birth, and thus their child becomes a citizen according to current interpretation of the law.

"new border wall.santa teresa new mexico,by drone" - July 19, 2018

note: aside from the concrete levy being built, these metal sections represent the absolute BEST "wall" sections being built. The rest is barbed/razor wire easily clipped with $2 wire cutters, gloves, jeans, and long sleeves (as if they're not going to be wearing that already for the desert sun and freezing nights).

Walls are not, essentially, made entirely of vertical poles stuck into the ground, attached at their tops.

Semantics aside, lets look at this objectively: go to :37-:43 and look at what's on that Gradal. Those slits are wide enough to pass drugs, guns, money and virtually anything through them.

These are so wide that women could literally put their vaginas up against them and have babies come out on the soil of the U.S.A. That would make the newborn legally a citizen and thus I suppose an "anchor baby".

I propose we call these specific types of children "Grapple Babies", as they would be similar to the grappling hooks pirates used in the days of naval warfare to grab a hold of other ships, secure yours to theirs, and then breach (literally).

Trump Says Border Wall Can Be Built in One Year - [Flashback: Jan 9, 2018]

To date, the fencing is a hodge-podge of projects covering about 650 miles.

...

In November, the government announced a $324 million contract for 32 miles of "primary pedestrian replacement wall" in Arizona.

A 20-mile border wall replacement project in Santa Teresa, N.M., was announced in April 2018. The cost is reported to be $73.3 million.

A 6-mile "levee wall system" is set for construction in Texas's Rio Grande Valley beginning in February 2019. It will cost $145 million.

A 14-mile "border wall construction project" along the border in San Diego was announced in June 2018. The project actually will replace an "eight-to-10 foot high scrap metal wall with an 18-to-30 foot bollard-style wall topped off with an anti-climbing plate." The cost will be $147 million.

Does anyone actually think all that heroin makes its way around the world , and come Into the US in tunnels or on the backs of Mexican mules

hah... and you wonder why all the politicians agree that a border "wall" with slits in it is "best". Walls have never had holes in them, aside from maybe in castles at the top for archers to safely shoot out of.
