it. then he started to blame senator schumer for it as well. the president will be remembered for the first thing he said, which is i m proud to take the heat for this and proud to shut it down. i m proud to see the president is fighting frankly. i believe that wherever the border patrol says we need a wall, there should be a wall. if there was no wall between san diego and tijuana, can you imagine? there s no moral reason not to have a wall. it s practical. the solution is a compromise on dollars but where to, leave it up to the border patrol. take the democrats and the republicans out. take president trump out. let the border patrol say where they would put it. that s the best way to to this in a way that is nonpolitical, neither party wins and we month text the border. neil: that makes too much sense. that won t happen. good seeing you. happy new year. thank you. thank you. neil: we have democratic strategist antoine searight with us and caitlin owens from axios.
they have the kind of qualities that we need in our country. they ve done a fantastic job at the border. it s ice and it s border patrol and a man who has become a friend of the sense, brandon i will say this. brandon judd has been a stalwart in terms of justice for people, in terms of fairness and in terms of the toughness you need. you have some pretty tough situations. it doesn t get much tougher. i want to thank brandon and all of the folks. i m going to have them introduce themselves right now. also say a few words about the wall, about you can call it a barrier, you can call it whatever you want. essentially we need protection in our country. we re going to make it good. the people of our country want it. i have never had so much support as i have in the last week over my stance for border security, for border control and for
but without a wall, you cannot have border security. it won t work. you see what has just been put out on social media where thousands of people are rushing the border. having a drone fly overhead. nobody knows much more about technology, this type of technology certainly than i do. having drones and various other former of sensors, they re all fine. but they re not going to stop the problems that this country has. we ve never had more people wanting to come to the united states. that has to to with the economy. it has to do with a lot of things. we re doing great as a country. but the better we do, the more people want to come in. so folks, i just want to thank you very much. it s an honor to be with you and i m glad you came. glad we came out here. first time i ve ever done this. the first time i ve done it. i ve done it for you. i m proud of that. you ve done a fantastic job. i want to thank you all. chris, thank you very much. thank you all very much.
it goes on and on with this guy. look. the steel wall that s 100 feet long, people want to come into this country will walk around that wall. they ll figure it out. they re not going to climb over a wall that is a couple hundred feet. that s the craziest thing i ever heard of. a 100 in the wall. there is multi-hundred mile border. the most people quoted mr. reagan, mr. goes, tear down this wall. now we are trying to build a wall. the reason we re building a wall, we don t want people not white coming across the southern border. that s what this is about. maybe sex he was losing the pr war, the they went on tv last fight after defending after a brutal day politically. almost him he has blanketed the airways non-stomt here is some of the show they put on. if democrats don t want the government to shut down, support
phones, electricity is pretty sparse. we need to do more reporting and figure out what intentions are real quickly. there s a group going around. some of them want to try to make a crossing at the border tomorrow morning at 5:00 a.m. aaron? hans, i think you make a good point that begs the question whether this new policy might deter migrants from actually trying to cross the border. is this really just something that gets ignored? well, we don t know the answer to that. what it would do is it would deter individuals from making those formal claims at points of entry, right, and it s the point of entry that the trump administration wants to funnel people because they want to cut down on the illegal crossings all along that 2,000 mile border. that s why the u.s. military has been brought in to reinforce. if you tell people that at the point of entry they won t be able to make those claims, and again, we don t know how they ll do these claims. will they have u.s. judges come down her
