Vance: "Trump hopes to finish border wall between US and Mexico by 2029"

Vice President JD Vance revealed Wednesday that President Trump hopes to complete construction on a “physical” border wall spanning the entire US-Mexico boundary by the end of his second term.

“I think the president’s hope is that by the end of the term we build the entire border wall,” the vice president said during remarks in Eagle Pass, Texas — a hot spot for human and drug smuggling during former President Joe Biden’s term in office.

“And of course that’s the physical structure, the border wall itself,” Vance noted.

“So many great artificial intelligence-enabled technologies that allow us, for example — a camera, not a person, but a camera picks up somebody two miles away who’s about to come across the southern border,” the vice president said.
