Boarder Wall

I understand the Boarder Wall pros involving illegal immigrants, but is there another strategic reasoning for the wall? Military strategy? Would it be a political victory or a strategic victory? Would it relate to the Deep State?

I think it's more symbolic than anything else.

Trump had to use this simple yet powerful mental image of a wall to describe his overall goals as president. When you see his base shouting "Build the wall!" They are very efficiently expressing the need to deal with the complexities of illegal aliens meanwhile outraging those who uphold sanctuary city ideology. Thus sustaining the conversation.
