It's not confusing.
Effective fencing, where needed, is a good tool for managing/monitoring migrant border crossings.
Combined with other border security tools -- like patrol agents and surveillance technology -- it can be efficient.
A solid wall from sea to shining sea, which is essentially what Trump initially described, is not realistic nor efficient.
Agents need to be able to see what's going down on the other side.
And, a fence or wall is not necessary all along the border because portions of the land are not favorable to border crossing attempts anyway.
Plus, I disagree with eminent domain -- people in border states should not be forced off their land so that it can be occupied by a great big wall when there are better alternatives, in my opinion.
