They are also retaining a law firm that specializes in eminent domain cases. Eminent domain doesn't mean the government could do whatever he wants. You are still entitled to due process. They explain it in a very clear way:
> So we’ve purchased a plot of vacant land on the border and retained a law firm specializing in eminent domain to make it as time-consuming and expensive as possible for the wall to get built.
Also, CAH founder has said in interviews in the past that:
> What I see getting results are back-to-basics material engagement with politics, like showing up at a Congress member’s office, calling, going to a protest. I think that’s more valuable than all of our clever liberal comedy right now. [0]
This is their way to give Americans a way to do an action with political weight and to funnel their marketing/comedic abilities into political action.
Will it stop the wall? No. Will it slow it down and make it a pain for the Trump administration? Yes. This is the equivalent of filibustering for normal citizens. Is it a way to do a political action? Yes
