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:

    All this talk about comparing the cost of a wall to the cost of an interstate has got me thinking.

    Why not build an interstate instead of a wall? No speed limit like the Autobahn. Killing an illegal immigrant is downgraded to a misdemeanor. If you register your vehicle, 30% of all damages to your vehicle caused by hitting illegal immigrants is refunded by the government.

    That'll solve the illegal immigrant problem pretty quickly, I think, and as a bonus keep all of those crazy drivers off normal roads.
