^ Yep, and as Occult mentions, the US will presumably lose access to long stretches of the Rio Grande too. Also, because it'll be so tricky to follow the exact line of the river, I expect any new wall construction will take a smoother route, leaving lots of US soil in a no-mans-land between the wall and the river.
It all equals lots of bad publicity and is another example of an ill-considered promise that I hope will fail in the execution like repeal-and-replace.

^ I had to check with my son about that word; it's Spanish from Spain and means deliquents or rebels. (I posted the Skynet drone to make a satirical comparison between an inhumane, out-of-control dystopia and Trump's vision for border security. Perhaps it didn't come off right.)
