 Well luckily Mexico paid for it, right?

 

Trump’s border wall has been breached more than 3,000 times by smugglers - The Washington Post

NACO, Arizona — Mexican smuggling gangs have sawed through new segments of border wall 3,272 times over the past three years, according to unpublished U.S. Customs and Border Protection maintenance records obtained by The Washington Post under the Freedom of Information Act.

 

The government spent $2.6 million to repair the breaches during the 2019 to 2021 fiscal years, the CBP records show. While the agency has acknowledged that smugglers are able to hack through the new barriers built by the Trump administration, the maintenance records show damage has been more widespread than previously known, pointing to the structure’s limitations as an impediment to illegal crossings.

Does this make you feel better about your vote against Americans?

Wow, sawed through the wall 3272 times in three years.  Imagine how many would have crossed without the wall.

"CBP officials say the bollard fencing remains a valuable border security tool when combined with surveillance technology and sufficient personnel. Many of the wall segments where breaching has occurred lack the sensors, cameras and other detection tools called for in original designs, they say. Once those tools are in place, agents will be able to respond faster, they say."

Then they can see the freshy made hole in the fence. But don't worry a contractor will be out to patch the fence for a couple grand a pop.
