Jorge Ramos Illustrates Why Trump’s Border Wall Is Utterly Pointless (Fusion)

During his press conference in New York on Thursday, Donald Trump reiterated his dedication to building a massive wall along the entire southern border of the United States with Mexico. Univision anchor Jorge Ramos thinks this idea is not merely absurd but also a “complete waste of time and money.”

“As you can imagine, for the last few days, I’ve been thinking a lot about Donald Trump and his plan to deport more than 11 million undocumented immigrants from the United States,” Ramos said in a segment for his Fusion show America, following his confrontation with the GOP frontrunner a week ago.

...“This wall would be a complete waste of time and money,” Ramos continued, citing a survey that found nearly 40% of undocumented immigrants come into the country by plane and overstay their visas.
