1) Prototypes for Trumps wall were erected in San Diego, but no actual construction has happened there as far as I know. 2) The people of San Diego havent called for the wall. City Council formally voted to oppose it. Even the Republican mayor has been critical.

(15,805 posts)He's trying to take credit for replacing a section of old fencing that was approved under Obama. There's no funding for the estimated $21.6 billion cost for Trump's wall. Congress approved $1.6 billion for all "border security", including new technology and repairs to existing barriers. Democrats were able to exact significant restrictions on the wall's construction, including avoiding building it in a wildlife preserve and blocking any construction of the barrier as a solid concrete wall.
