When hundreds of thousands of illegals successfully make it across every year, that means that in any practical sense, we have open borders.

I never said it was a geography problem, you did. Are you feeling OK? What I said was that if hundreds of thousands can cross every year, that's an open border.

Yes, they are. That's because they have a visa.

If they overstay their visa, then they don't have a visa and they become illegal.
