But CBS News polling from mid-November found that a majority -- 59 percent of Americans -- oppose building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. It's a partisan issue, though. A large majority of Republicans support the wall -- 79 percent. A majority of independents -- 66 percent -- oppose the wall, and 84 percent of Democrats are also against it.

Yep it's all about national security
Yup. It is. I took a poll among my friends. 100% for the wall.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Actually, everyone I know that I've discussed this with, including my black Democrat friends, are in favor of the wall.

I think most people are in favor of border security, just not a big tall beautiful etc etc wall from sea to shining sea.
If the Generalissimo was a skilled politician and negotiater rather than a reality tv star he would probably be able to obtain what is needed.
