I didn't say that the Republican platform lacks basic critical thought, I said that Donald Trump's platform lacks basic critical thought. The wall is the best example. He wants to build a massive wall that will cost tens of billions of dollars. That wall ignores the fact that almost all illegal immigration comes from visa overstays rather than people walking across the border. And the wall would still be relatively easy to get over without someone guarding it. Last Week Tonight, a comedy show, did a pretty thorough dismantling [1] of the logic behind building it. Scientists, Engineers and Immigration officials would have an even easier time arguing against it. It's just a really stupid idea that he probably came up with watching Game of Thrones (Mexicans == Wildlings) and yet he's used it to help win the Republican nomination.
