To say...but you said a wall...and discount alternatives is ridiculous.
They don't count. We do.
From https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/articleiv
Section 4.
The United States shall guarantee to every state in this union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion; and on application of the legislature, or of the executive (when the legislature cannot be convened) against domestic violence.
JUST NOW!
Trump on a live Fox News broadcast just doubled down on the need for a real wall and serious border security.
literalists, the dogma creates literalists
A lot of the early fences were crap. The replacements are much better. Also, I believe they are constructing several sections of fencing that were submitted by proposal. One of them, I really love.

Renovate the Fence!

lol!
Simple solutions are more powerful than complex ones. As a master persuader, Trump knew not to get into minutia about how this section would be a physical wall, this one would better be implemented with a fence, this part could be done electronically. That is weak.
Instead he used the power of simplicity to say “We will build a wall on our southern border” and let everyone visualize what that means in their own mind. No one with a functional brain envisioned the Great Wall of China from sea to shining sea.
His enemies and the media take Trump literally but not seriously. His supporters take Trump seriously but not literally. As long as we have strong border security that includes whatever combination of technologies is appropriate, it will accomplish the goals Trump identified and be supported by the vast majority of those who voted for him.
Its hard to call “fake news”.

That’s right. I saw the President say it on Fox this morning.
“Meet the new wall, same as the old wall”?
Fences rust and fall apart. Walls are forever.
Screw a fence. I want a wall that can be seen from outer space.
That’s not what he campaigned on.
The fence serves the purpose and has additional qualities.
He campaigned on stopping border jumping.
No, he campaigned on a wall that wasn’t built.
You people really need to learn how to read.
Headline, NO QUOTES.
Donald Trump: The Wall Is Actually Just Renovation of Old Fences
What Trump actually said/tweeted, WITH QUOTES.
“The WALL, which is already under construction in the form of new renovation of old and existing fences and walls, will continue to be built,” Trump wrote on Twitter on Thursday morning.
Did Trump say “JUST”?
MISLEADING and FAKE headline. I don’t care who said it, it’s a FAKE headline.
Yeah, he’s striking a very hard deal for the Wall. Pushing hard for it with his liberal White House staff. Why are they all libs, who knows?? But we have faith in Sir Donald, yes sireee! He’s playing 3-D Chess!!!
PS
And, WINNING!! And all that.
We will keep the old barbed wire - the parts the they cayotes have not already hacked down.
Riiiiight! He’ll be wearing his hard hat and directing the machinery. We just can’t play that 3-D Chess like Sir Donald can! We’ll also get that embassy moved to Jerusalem and Hamas will pay for it.
