"My colleagues on the other side of the aisle would have us believe that the solution to the fentanyl problem in this country is to discourage both illegal and legal immigration. In comes the wall which we've heard a lot about.

The wall kind of reminds me of a sad, decaying Soviet statue," Frost said.
