The last two of eight prototypes for President Donald Trump's proposed border wall took shape Thursday at a construction site in San Diego.
The prototypes, including one built by Israeli defense firm Elta, form a tightly packed row of imposing concrete and metal panels, including one with sharp metal edges on top.
[...] The models, which cost the government up to $500,000 each, were spaced 30 feet (9.1 meters) apart. Slopes, thickness and curves vary. One has two shades of blue with white trim. The others are gray, tan or brown — in sync with the desert.
Bidding guidelines call for the prototypes to stand between 18 and 30 feet (5.5 and 9.1 meters) high and be able to withstand at least an hour of punishment from a sledgehammer, pickaxe, torch, chisel or battery-operated tools.
Features also should prevent the use of climbing aids such as grappling hooks, and the segments must be "aesthetically pleasing" when viewed from the US side.

There are millions and millions of illegal voters, at least 7 million. We know because we have a database. Kris Kobach found them with his Interstate Crosscheck. His database. The Dems obstructed it in a lot, a lot of states, but he found millions in the database. There's massive voter fraud in Virginia, New Hampshire, and California. These are people who vote in two, three, four, five states on the same day. People, in my opinion, that are voting many, many, many times. Which is a very serious crime. And some have been charged. Believe me, they have been charged. Several faced charges and had to appear in court. There's a very credible study, the Richman study, that found a lot, a lot of illegals are voting. Tremendous voter fraud, very crooked. And if you deduct those millions of people who voted illegally, I won the popular vote.
