The news is filled with images of migrants massing at the U.S-Mexico border near the San Ysidro crossing in California. Why haven't they been able to enter the United States? Because a physical barrier prevents them from doing so.
It is just another example of a barrier — a fence, a wall, whatever — providing real border security.
Of course, building a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border was President Trump's premier campaign promise. So far, in nearly two years in office, he has made almost no progress toward making it happen. Trump has had opportunities to win wall funding in exchange for amnesty for recipients of President Barack Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA, policy. But the White House loaded its wall proposal with add-on demands, and it never happened.
