He is going to get congress to agree that our taxes should go towards building this wall that won't keep them out and then he is going to ask the Mexicans to pay for it through some kind of visitor tax? Mexican goods tax? He may not like Mexico much but unless he wants what is going on in the Philippines then he should be their friend.

President Donald Trump will take executive action Wednesday directing federal resources toward building a border wall, a White House official confirmed to CNN.

The move begins a multi-day roll out of immigration actions that's also expected to include moves related to refugees and visas. Trump will make the announcement during a visit to the Department of Homeland Security at 1:25 p.m. ET.

Trump himself hinted at Wednesday's move on Twitter, writing "Big day planned on NATIONAL SECURITY tomorrow. Among many other things, we will build the wall!" Ref. CNN.

This has to be one of the stupidest things that Trump is planning to do. First is his gagging of scientist, but this is right up there. The biggest problem is that building a wall won't change anything, it is just a show move made to look powerful, but accomplishes nothing in the long run. Second is that right now there is a larger outflux of immigrants than influx (This has been going on longer than just Trump's campaign), but foreigners are now more scared than ever to be in America.

Well, who hasn't committed a crime other than breaking our immigration laws. I do agree with securing our borders. Allowing people to come willy nilly into the US is a dangerous policy. It is a country's inherent right to secure its border.

Our current system may not be 100% effective at stopping illegal immigrants, but there is no reason to believe that building a bigger wall is going to change anything. People already dig tunnels and bribe guards to get across, what makes putting up a bigger wall any more effective? Unless you are going to be supplying more manpower and better surveillance (That is monitored well), then you are just wasting money building a bigger wall.
