The whole justification for “the wall” is a myth & political optical trick.

So, how did this topic enter the discussion?

During the campaign, two political operatives were afraid that Trump would get off-topic when discussing “immigration”, so they feed him the idea of the wall, in a simple way that Trump could understand.

Trump talked about the wall at rallies, and his followers cheered.

That feed his ego, and the die was cast.

From the Forbes article linked below:

Donald Trump’s plan to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border did not come from security analysts following years of study or through evidence that a wall would reduce illegal immigration. Amazingly, for something so central to the current U.S. president,the wall came about as a “mnemonic device” thought up by a pair of political consultants to remind Donald Trump to talk about illegal immigration.

…So they picked the answer, and then started making up reasons why that answer was required….

Kind of bass-ackwards

PS: One of the Political Consultants was Roger Stone, who has his own legal problems right now.

So, why is the wall idea still being pushed?

  • For the same reason it was first presented.
  • It motivates Trump Supporters.
  • A con man continue to use it to influence people.
