Would you accept a border wall in exchange for amnesty?

[PJMcK]

6. Bad idea

The wall along the U.S./Mexican border cannot be built. There are numerous reasons.

- It is beyond difficult to engineer the wall in many places along the border
- Much of the border is a river so where would you put it? It can't go on the Mexican side since that's their country; it can't go on the U.S. side because that would cede the river to Mexico; it can't go in the middle of the river because it would act like a dam and there would also be environmental problems.
- The wall would be astronomically expensive, costing far, far more than anyone has calculated. After all, how many governmental projects are completed under budget? By the way, Mexico won't pay for the fuckin' wall.
- Much of the property along the U.S. side is privately owned and would have to be bought or seized by eminent domain. The lawsuits would extend beyond a hypothetical Trump second term.

There are probably many more problems with this stupid idea.

Additionally, your suggestion would be bad politics for Democrats. We don't want the wall.
