"Closing the border even dumber than building a wall

[MagicMike]

There is no simple answer or solution to our southern border humanitarian crisis.
Any politician who tries to tell you there is is lying to you. The issue is just too complex for political soundbytes.
When Trump speaks about stupid (non) solutions like building his ridiculous "wall" or "closing the border" he's just pandering to his clueless fan base spread out around the country, many of whom live nowhere near the southern border and don't really understand how it works.
It becomes a tribal thing for these people, often racial, and it just adds to the non-productive noise.
There MAY yet be a working solution to this issue. Some thoughtful, insigtful method of making our southern border more secure and stemming the flow of illegal immigrants entering the U.S. from the south, but it is PROBABLY not going to come from a bellicose, loud-mouthed, hatred-stoking, non-thinker like Donald Trump.

López Obrador’s letter emphasised the economic integration between the two countries and the damage to “people, industry and commerce” that closing the border would bring.

California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, together with the six border states in Mexico, “represent the fourth biggest economy in the world”, while 1 million people and 300,000 vehicles cross the border every day, wrote the Mexican leader popularly known as Amlo.

Many of those vehicles carry cargo as part of the USMCA free trade agreement among the US, Mexico and Canada, which López Obrador defended as making goods cheaper for US consumers and being “the only way to successfully confront the competition brought by the economic and commercial advance of China”.
López Obrador also asked Trump to bear in mind that almost 40 million Mexicans live in the US, that seven of every 10 agricultural workers in the US are Mexican, and that Mexicans contributed $325bn to the US economy last year.
But, he added: “I understand that you are campaigning and that you are not – as some believe – obstinate”.

Sure there is, leverage Mexico and force them to secure the border from their side.

Something Trump already proved works.

Blah blah blah. How bout enforcing the law eh....

the law is being enforced as written and interpreted.

there have been years of hearings and neither biden not mayorkas has been shown to be breaki8ng the immigration law.

did you hear the threat trump to langford (name might be wrong . oklahoma sen) if he pushed the conservative bill that dems agreed to ? because trump wants the "campaign issue."

is this really the way you roll? because it is much easier to fix something if you don't worry abpout who gets the credi8t.

Time for him to feel some pain. Maybe he will stop the flow at his southern border.

From the left either, for that matter.

The wall focuses people to certain ports of entry, where they make a claim to enter and are approved or rejected as per existing law. Crossing enmasse at the Rio isn't what the law states.

 

[whitehall]

No country in the freaking world (including our neighbor to the north) has open borders. Now we get a lecture from the left about simplistic answers? Yeah maybe it's more complicated than walls but we are in a freaking crisis and we have to tackle the problem with a better than idea than sending a ditsy giggly V.P. to do the job.

Even Ancient China realized you can't build a wall on the constantly shifting sand of a 1200 mile long riverbed.

We can't solve this problem, what issue would the GOP have to replace it?

Link us up to this wall built on a riverbed?

What was she supposed to do? Biden invited all those immigrants.

But for some odd reason you can build hydroelectric dams across the constantly shifting sands of a riverbed that holds back billions upon billions gallons of water.

Who said it had to be built on the riverbed?

Orwell lives in the minds of the left. They disregard what their senses tell them and rely on political dogma. The media tries it's best to keep it under wraps but we see the rapes and murders of American citizens almost on a daily basis by illegal aliens with criminal records going back to South America. We see the resources of cities stretched to their limits by illegal aliens flooding the streets. But the amazing thing is that lefties have convinced themselves that there is no problem because a mentally deranged president sent a moron as "border czar" and then claimed that the crisis was over.
