You people and your false dichotomies.

But yes, I do consider our interests better served by supporting Ukraine's defense as compared with building a wall across our southern border.
What interests specifically?

There are, of course, too many to list. But they include our related interests in weakening the ability of a geopolitical adversary to make war, and strengthening our relationships with allies and partners.

(Additionally - a wall can't and won't work anyway, so it would literally be a monument to rubes, visible from space, that serves a purely ornamental purpose. You might as well print Ozymandias on each span, just to save some time.)

How is it possible for a wall to not work but also disrupt local ecology at the same time

So you have no actual reasons. It's just based purely off your political allegiances and stubbornness.

Got it.

It's this weird Democrat delusion: When they lose an election, it's Russian collusion; when they win, it's legitimate, and anyone who says otherwise is treasonous.

An effective wall will require armed personnel atop it at regular intervals.

I don’t understand. I gave reasons. If you disagree with them - WEF something, Blackrock something or other, who knows - but I gave my high level reasons.

Funny how minority rule due to gerrymandered crap districts and Russian support denial makes psych post in every thread. Several things need to be fixed to get to immigration.

Exactly, and it didn't work there either.
