Fred Reed's mathematical analysis of Trump's Wall proves that Trump is insincere, proves that Trump is mathematically incompetent, and earns Fred Reed an honorary nerd card:

    The wall is useful. The wall is economically useful, because it will help to stabilize our economy. It does increase security. The fact that you think the answers to your questions is "no" doesn't make it so. Bring on the punishment for employers, that's great. I love the idea. Meanwhile, build the wall.

    Again, the Chinese accomplished a comparable feat, thousands of years ago, using only grunt labor and millenia old technology. Are we such wimps, that a wall challenges us? Just build the wall. The wall will mess with the flow of drugs, probably to a greater extent than all of the DEA's other misguided efforts. That alone justifies the wall.

    National pride has something to do with all of this. If you have none, then you see no point in the wall. I have such pride. This country belongs to us, and we don't owe it, or any part of it, to outsiders. Those Mexicans, and everyone else, can just stay out, unless they ASK politely to come in, and we eventually grant permission.

    Do you leave your doors at home hanging open, and allow anyone and everyone to come in, as they wish? I didn't think so. Why are our doors hanging open at the border? Close the doors. Control immigration, and stop allowing immigration to control us.
