Part of Trump's border wall will have to be virtual, defense experts say

    By JACQUELINE KLIMAS • 10/5/16 12:01 AM

    "Build that e-wall" just doesn't have the same ring to it, but a virtual wall will have to be part of Donald Trump's plan to secure the border, according to defense experts.

    A solution would likely include a blend of assets, according to Matt Mayer, a visiting fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. While sections of flat ground along the border lend themselves to a physical wall, "more than a sliver of the border" includes rivers or mountainous terrain that make a virtual wall more practical.

    Asked if a virtual wall would be a part of Trump's plan, Mayer said, "I think it has to be because there are certain places on the southern border where you can not put a physical wall."

Yeah, why build something that didn't work very well?
