Original title: illegal immigrants' breaking the wall into the United States' Trump: 'the wall' is easy to repair
Four seas news and the Washington Post disclosed on Tuesday that traffickers used chainsaws to cut through the "wall" built along the southern border of the United States to help illegal immigrants enter the United States.
On November 2, 2018 local time, in Hidalgo, Texas, the United States of America, a large army of Central American immigrants came to the United States. American soldiers installed barbed wire at the border between the United States and Mexico to prevent immigrants from entering the country.
President Donald Middleton trump said the wall was easy to repair.

The Washington Post reported Tuesday that human trafficking gangs have used electric tools to destroy the "separation wall" at the border in recent months, helping illegal immigrants to enter the United States from Mexico.
When trump ran for president in 2016, he promised to build a "wall" along the US Mexico border to keep illegal immigrants and drugs out of the country.
According to the report, the "separation wall" targeted by the trafficking gang is made of steel columns, which are 5.5m-9.1m high and have very small gaps between them. Human traffickers can cut off a section of column with electric reciprocating saw for a few minutes to let illegal immigrants through. That saw costs $100 at the hardware store.
The US government did not disclose the destruction of the 'border wall'. CBP declined to provide information on the cumulative number, location, and progress of such damage.
Matthew lias, spokesman for CBP, told CNN: 'any description of the wall is absurd. &The "wall" is working. '
Several customs and border protection officials, who declined to be named, said some of the damage occurred in sections of the wall that did not complete the installation of electronic sensors; the new columnar 'wall' is stronger than any other type of wall in the past.

Trump told reporters Tuesday that he had not read reports of the "border wall" being sawn off, while acknowledging that the wall could be damaged. 'we have a very strong wall, but to be fair, no matter how strong it is, it can always penetrate. '
"Penetration is one thing, but it's easy to repair," he said. One of the reasons the U.S. government chose the column wall is that it's easy to repair and "only needs to install the section back.".
In recent weeks, trump has praised the "wall" as virtually impenetrable, saying illegal immigrants cannot cross it in the middle, above or below, the Washington Post reported.
Reported that human traffickers and border managers often staged a "cat and mouse battle": some human traffickers will put it back to its original place after sawing off the "wall" pillar, pretending to be in good condition for reuse; border managers will kick the "wall" pillar with boots when patrolling to check whether it is loose. If the column is found damaged, the welding team will repair it quickly; the human traffickers will find the column with welding points to start again because it is relatively fragile.
Ronald vitiero, who resigned as acting director of the customs and Border Protection Agency in April, said that trafficking gangs' will continue to innovate & hellip; & hellip; and will not leave the US Mexico border because the & lsquo; wall & rsquo; has become stronger.
According to a number of CBP officials, the barrier alone cannot prevent illegal immigrants from entering the United States. It must be supplemented by surveillance techniques, and border managers need to be in place quickly to deal with illegal cross-border crossing.
