Joe Scarborough suggested Wednesday that the US should “go ahead” and complete the wall at the Mexican border.
“I don’t understand the border agent who says we don’t need any more than we have here because we’ll just make do,” Scarborough stated in reference to a Jacob Soboroff segment that had just aired. “I don’t think most Americans would agree with that.”

“You see a fence that just sort of stops in the middle of nowhere,” he continued. “Why not build the fence? I’m not talking about a huge wall, but for a lot of Americans why not go ahead and complete that fence along the areas where people come in?”
Scarborough pointed to John McCain “when he was running his primary, he said build the dang wall? It obviously resonates with people along the border.”
“It resonates with people in middle-America too. I don’t quite understand why we wouldn’t at least complete that fence.”
