What a simpletons response
Its construction lasted over 2,300 years (680 BC – 1681 AD). Different sections of the Great wall were being built, destroyed, and renovated by 9+ dynasties.
Great reader of history you are Jim
Why not use the Maginot Line at least that’s recent history Built
1929–1938

you said it was simplistic to think it could
be sealed off. an ancient civilization built a much bigger wall.

Fixed it for you, if you only had an emperor……

And it was hundreds of years ago. Are you assuming there have been no technological advances since then, which would make it quicker to build it today?
The way we built things back then, and the way we build things today, are different. Sorry if that's going too fast for you.

Fine, let's stay on topic.
You said this:
" Only geographically challenged People would assume you could open and close a 2000 mile border"
We could seal that border up in a few years at most, if not within 2 years. It's a piece of cake, it's not even hard. Of course we'd still need people and resources there, but to say it can't be done is laughable. Most liberals don't even try to make the argument that we can't do it, they just say walls, like everything else they don't like, is racist.
Swimming. Swimming is racist, did you know that? That's what Fettterman's wife said.
And Fatty Abrams said 107 GA sheriffs "want to be able to take black people off the streets". Once the future star of the party, she's soon to be the left's Sarah Palin, soon to have her own show on MSNBC where you can feel the IQ points getting sucked out of your brain as you watch. Another racist lunatic getting kicked to the curb which is left-wing cable news. Al Sharpton, Joy Reid, what's-her-name-Cross, and soon Abrams will give MSNBC a quartet of hosts who blame everything on whitey.

Jim its the reason why you want to build a wall thats Dumb .. its a simplitions approach to a bigger problem . and it wont solve anything
Congress needs to fix what's broken .... And if you want less migrant fix south and central America .. Because the United states F up decades ago and now we are feeling the affects of those mistakes
The forces driving ordinary people to leave their homes and put their lives at risk crossing deserts with smugglers to get to the US border are deeply rooted in Central America’s history of inequality and violence, in which the US has long played a defining role.

Your hero, reknowned expert in wall building (along with everything) couldn’t build his wall in 4 years.
Yet you’re claiming you could do it in two, congratulations maybe you and the Swanson heir can get elected and accomplish your dream.
Then it’s off to the fallback position of victim, where you claim that just as many blacks can swim as whites or something because somebody’s wife said something and likely the Swanson heir took it out of context, but you repeated it as your ilk does.
Then off to a little fat shaming, mixed with racism for added effect, because we all know that you too are the least racist person we will ever meet.
