NBC News has an exclusive report on the viability of the steel prototype "wall" that demagogue and con man Donald "Rump" Trump is desperately clinging to, while shutting the Government down. Spoiler alert:

"A photo exclusively obtained by NBC News shows the results of the test after experts from the Marine Corps were instructed to attempt to destroy the barriers with common tools.Rump's manhood compensator -- one that he endlessly said Mexico would pay for -- won't be built. As more and more Rethug Senators break off from his folly as their real constituents feel real pain, and as the polls go against Rump and the Rethugs, that's becoming more plain each day.
The Trump administration directed the construction of eight steel and concrete prototype walls that were built in Otay Mesa, California, just across the border from Tijuana, Mexico. Trump inspected the prototypes in March 2018. He has now settled on a steel slat, or steel bollard, design for the proposed border barrier additions. Steel bollard fencing has been used under previous administrations.
However, testing by DHS in late 2017 showed all eight prototypes, including the steel slats, were vulnerable to breaching, according to an internal February 2018 U.S. Customs and Border Protection report." (our emphasis)
