According to formal cartel members, most drugs smuggled into the United States are entering through open ports of entry including: trains, tractor-trailers, and ordinary cars. This claim challenges Trump's desperate wishes for a cement wall on the southern border. Accordingly, throughout the late 1980's and early 1990's, 95% of the United States cocaine was brought through underground tunnels in Arizona. As law enforcement began discovering the means of entry, they began closing the tunnels and as a result, those same cartel members had to conform to new legal ports of entry. Even if the president decides to build the wall in the future, the deceitful drug traffickers will conform to the laws imposed upon them as they have in the past. Ultimately, despite Trump's pledge, the wall can not keep out illegal substances.
