The DEA doesn't think Trump's border wall will stop drugs from coming into the country

President Donald Trump says his wall at the US-Mexico border will help stem the flow of illegal drugs into the United States. There's one problem with the plan: The drugs coming into the US Northeast often arrive by plane, boat, or hidden in vehicles, according to an intelligence report by the Drug Enforcement Administration.

Of course it won't stop it, but it will make it alot more difficult, choke pointing transit routes and squeezing supply. Which raises prices, and forces demand out of the market. Worked under Bush I.
