$10bil is very little to spend beefing up the boarder control of a country your elite used as cheap labour and drug trade. Yes, you could wait it out but if you want something done right, you do it yourself. Especially if it's going to help you drastically in the end. Want an example? Here's some free paint to paint my house.

the real battle is not about the funding. That is simply the public facade.
The real battle is the wall itself. They desperately don't want that wall.
The wall is a real threat to their illicit activities.
The NEED that border open.
They don't even want the discussion to be public as it exposes them and their real motives which are not the funding..
