The Trump administration’s proposed border wall is intended to curb illegal immigration and keep Americans safe from dangers on the other side, but under scrutiny and testing the wall prototypes may have failed in that aim, according to a report released by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Tuesday.

Tactical teams, including experts from CBP, U.S. Special Operations Command and the Marine Corps Special Operations Command, tested the eight prototypes in Otay Mesa for breaching, scaling, aesthetics, constructability and design.

The report shows 13 figures labeled “breached,” but it’s unclear which figures belong to which prototype because the photos were redacted from the release.

The breaching scenarios included teams physically penetrating the walls or scaling them in timed climbing scenarios.

1. How could they be otherwise.

Everything orange assmouth touches crumbles and fails, including now the would-be walls. This isn't one bit about security, it's about him profiting off this and about ginning up the racism from his hater base, a 2-fer.

2. Duh. Didn't cartel dig a two mile tunnel under homes and buildings to spring El Chapo?

Had lights, air conditioning, a rail track. Why would anyone think a wall will be an obstacle?

You go over, under, around or through.

Think of a dozen healthy young motivated fellows confronted by a wall. How long will it take for the 30 billion dollar wall to be rendered useless?
