Most all of those who are coming to America--risking their lives, suffocating in the back of a truck, going over a perilous desert--are not here to cause us harm; they are not here to do wrong and mooch off of our social services. They are trying to escape violence or provide a little hope to their family. And they do it by taking the dirtiest, toughest jobs in our society, as immigrants have done since the very founding of our Nation. A wall only makes their path more perilous without offering us more security. Last year, Trump's most famous and oft repeated claim was that he would build a wall that Mexico would pay for.
