Musk Fed Up, Vows to Visit Border: ‘We Require a Wall’
Tech Entrepreneur Elon Musk Agrees: America Needs a Border Wall
Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk is apparently fed up with the dangerous border crisis that Joe Biden has created and has now agreed with those who say that America needs to build a border wall to act as a serious deterrent to illegal immigration.
On Wednesday, Musk replied to a video of Speaker Kevin McCarthy, who was seen saying that he won’t approve more spending on the war between Ukraine and Russia unless the crisis on our own border is addressed.
Musk agreed with Speaker McCarthy that the border is a serious issue that needs to be resolved.
The (USA) border needs to be secured. This is not a partisan issue — even the elected Democrat Party leaders of New York are saying this is a severe crisis.

That was not the end of his comments, though. Musk went on to insist that we need an actual, physical barrier to help limit illegal crossings.
“We actually do need a wall and we need to require people to have some shred of evidence to claim asylum to enter, as everyone is doing that. It’s a hack that you can literally Google to know exactly what to say!” he wrote.
Then he added an interesting tidbit by noting that he was going to visit a hotspot of the border problem himself.
“Will find out more when I visit Eagle Pass maybe as soon as tomorrow,” he wrote about his plan to visit the infamous border crossing near the town of Eagle Pass, Texas.

Still, Musk agreed that there does not have to be a wall from coast to coast to tamp down the border crisis.
“Absolutely. Most of the (very long) border is super inconvenient, however the convenient parts of the border need walls and that’s not hard,” he wrote.

Musk did not say exactly when he was set to visit the border, but many jumped onto his posts to agree wholeheartedly with the X CEO’s ideas on the border debacle.
Some common sense from the richest man in the world!

People live in houses with walls and locks for a reason.

The only reason they were against the wall was because Trump wanted it. It’s common sense that walls and barriers work. It’s about mitigation.

Musk is so right with this one. And most Americans agree. Just last year, for instance, a poll published by Issues & Insights found that 57 percent supported building more border wall barriers to only 33 percent who opposed the idea. And this is after six years of the media berating anyone who wanted a border wall as a MAGA racist.
The border crisis is reverberating all across the county, not just among our border states. One major problem that Biden’s failed border policies have exacerbated is the number of deaths from overdoses of fentanyl and other drugs. In 2022, the last year we have full statistics, the U.S. hit a record of 109,680 people who died from overdoses, NPR reported in May. And these drugs are literally pouring over Biden’s wide-open border.
The crisis on the southern border is getting worse every single day. This is not a partisan issue. It is hurting all Americans, not just one side of the political aisle. Hopefully, Musk’s attention to the crisis will help lead to an end to Biden’s dangerous and inhuman policies.

How does Elon Musk’s support for a border wall align with his previous stance on immigration issues?
Here are many natural barriers that can be utilized. In the places where it makes sense, a wall can be effective,” he clarified in response to a tweet suggesting that a physical barrier along the entire border may not be feasible.
Musk’s agreement with the need for a border wall comes as no surprise given his previous outspokenness on immigration issues. In the past, he has voiced concerns about the impact of uncontrolled immigration on wages and unemployment rates in the United States.
His position is further reinforced by the fact that even Democratic Party leaders in New York, a traditionally liberal stronghold, acknowledge the severity of the border crisis. Musk’s statement that this is not a partisan issue highlights the urgency and bipartisan nature of the problem.
The call for evidence in asylum claims is also a reasonable suggestion from Musk. It is no secret that some individuals abuse the asylum system by making false claims to enter the country. Requiring evidence would not only deter false claims but also ensure that legitimate cases are given proper consideration.
What sets Musk apart from others discussing the border crisis is his hands-on approach. By planning a visit to Eagle Pass, Texas, he is taking the initiative to see the situation firsthand and educate himself. This demonstrates his genuine concern and commitment to finding a solution.
While Musk’s support for a border wall may be met with opposition from some, it is important to acknowledge that his stance is based on the need for border security and the recognition of a genuine crisis. It is crucial to have open discussions and consider different perspectives in order to effectively address the complex issue of illegal immigration.
In conclusion, Elon Musk’s agreement that America needs a border wall brings attention to the urgent need for better border security. His proposal to require evidence in asylum claims and his willingness to visit border hotspots demonstrate his commitment to finding practical solutions. The border crisis should not be a partisan issue, but rather a call for bipartisan action to address the legitimate concerns raised by individuals across the political spectrum.
