:lol:

I've found that I'm typically more well-informed than most on this forum on a wide array of subjects. That I've decided to pass this article along - this time - doesn't mean that I hadn't already investigated the matter more thoroughly in the past.

As for Lexington's remark. Left-liberals have literally screeched in the streets en masse about this 'wall' in the last couple of weeks. Most recently during the women's march and Trump's inauguration. Of course large numbers of left-liberal Americans are hysterical, this is self-evident and has been shown on television sets/websites the world over. The Democratic party is pretty much hinged on outrage hysterics, hence the epic failures in most recent American elections. :lol:

What do asylum seekers have to do with the border wall?


The only reason illegal immigration has fallen off is because they don't need to sneak across the border. They simply walk up and ask for asylum. It does not change the problem, it just disguises it.
I will qualify this to say I would not be surprised by some reduction simply due to so many manufacturers going to Mexico, but this is about to change.

@XogGyux Ten thousand one square mile domes might be a good idea however. ;)

This is doubtful. Please provide evidence that the recent drop in illegal immigration is caused by people pretending to be asylum seekers. Thank you.

Trump should invest more on the wall and build something much better than the OP's images. There should be armed border agents who can deter illegal aliens from crossing the border, which worked in East Berlin.
