Really? Your best response is the freaking wall of China, Hadrian's wall, and Israel?

Or maybe, just maybe, what worked against a bunch of mongols or barbarians won't work to stop people in 2019.
As for the Israeli west bank barrier, it's a fraction of the size and it's effectiveness is somewhat questionable. The amount of attacks in Israel did go down after it went up, but A) there were other factors causing the decline, and B) it's not like terrorist attacks stopped entirely.
More importantly, it's a completely different situation. Again, have you been following the El Chapo trial? He did not smuggle his drugs through the unprotected parts of the border: he went through the protected parts and bribed guards. And that's exactly what's going to happen if the wall does get built. Comparing it to Israel's situation (where it's a heck of a lot harder to bribe Israeli guards to let Palestinians carrying bombs through) is moronic.
So again, come back to me when you want to live in reality instead of idiot xenophile fantasy propaganda land.

They were examples of massive walls that worked at one time, The Israel wall is very effective even though your down playing it.
El chapo is one drug smuggler, there are other issues like human trafficking, and illegal migrants. To ignore all the other major issues at the border because of one piece on El Chapo's smuggle ops is insane. Get your head out of the sand man. As i commented before the illegals that are pouring over into America are overwhelming infrastructure, social services, water, food, schools causing human rights issues to American citizens. I think Tax paying citizens of America deserve better than illegals.
