How smugglers stand to profit from Trump’s border wall

Season 2017

Will Trump wall deter drug and human smugglers?

A reinforced border wall was President Trump's signature campaign promise, but following through may not deter drug and human smugglers with so much money at stake. A new multimedia project by USA TODAY NETWORK called "The Wall" explores the complex reality of life on the border. Daniel Gonzales of The Arizona Republic sits down with William Brangham to discuss his reporting.
