Trump's Border Wall Needs Storm Gates Left Open

“President Trump’s border wall likely will require the installation of hundreds of storm gates to prevent flash floods from undermining or knocking it over, gates that must be left open for months every summer during ‘monsoon season’ in the desert,” the Washington Post reports.

“The open, unmanned gates in remote areas already have allowed for the easy entry of smugglers and migrants into the United States.”

Who puts up heavy steel anchored in wet concrete without braces on both sides? Even my wooden fence had braces on the posts until the concrete set up.
