This Is How Much Would It Cost to Build a Border Wall Coast to Coast
Briefly

Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign centered around the promise of building a massive southern border wall, which has yet to be completed. Although $11 billion was spent upgrading existing wall segments during his first term, finishing the wall from coast to coast could require more than $70 billion, not accounting for land acquisition and legal battles. The wall's progress has lagged behind Trump's ambitious promises, echoing the difficulties faced by previous administrations in dealing with border security. The future effectiveness and implications of completing the wall remain under scrutiny.
Trump promised his supporters, 'You're going to have a wall like no other... A very big and very powerful border wall is going up at record speed.'
