On Thursday, Democratic presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke campaigned in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. During one of his speeches, he criticized the notion of border walls or barriers, saying they were the answer to “a problem we do not have.”
I’m here to tell you a profoundly positive story from the U.S.-Mexico border. We do not need any walls – $30 billion, 2,000 miles long, 30 feet high, that will not be built on the international boundary line, which is the center line of the Rio Grande river. That wall will be built well into the interior of someone’s ranch, someone else’s farm, someone else’s home. You and I will be forced to take their property to solve a problem we do not have.
