Adam Conover works for the online comedy video site known as "College Humor," where he participates in various skits about everything from what it's like to write a college humor video, to the world's oversensitivity about everything.

But Conover's major claim to fame is when he started up a skit for the site called "Adam Ruins Everything," where he deconstructs things everybody knows about, and reveals that we really don't know much about that thing at all, such as how diamonds are intrinsically worthless and tipping is a scam. The skit was so successful that Tru TV wanted to pick up the skit and make it into a full blown show.

Recently, Conover turned his attention to myths about immigration, and you can't talk about immigration without covering its solutions. So naturally, Conover had to tackle Donald Trump's wall. The verdict?

The entire idea is a horrible one.

In just over two minutes, Conover discusses how the wall's enormity would cost us billions of dollars to both build, and maintain, and that homes and even nature would be ruined in the process. Furthermore, the wall wouldn't even do much to keep illegal immigrants out. In fact, he reveals how many of America's illegal immigrants got here without even having to cross the border on the ground.

Watch below.

Meh. I'm #NeverTrump and this video is crap.

He's right about one thing: a "wall" is a stupid idea. One of the worst aspects of a wall, is that it is actually hard to see what is going on on the other side.

Now, a nice Israeli style border fence...



...Oh, yeah. Try to hide a ladder propped up against that.

Cheaper, more effective, and all around better than any dumb wall suggested by dumb candidates.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!
