Second... the wall.. illegal immigration peaked at over 12 million people about a decade ago and has started to drop in recent years. Still a problem. But is it our nation's most pressing problem? I don't think so. If Mexico makes up 52% of our illegal immigrants, how is spending billions on a wall going to solve the problem. Statistics show the numbers are already dropping. I don't think the American people would ever see a return on this investment and see it as a symbol more than a real solution. Plus, I don't think it will work. As discussed in previous threads, I also do not think it is very difficult to outsmart a wall.
