What I think the wall that Trump built is for

To me, this wall has nothing to do with the illegal border crossings that are happening now, it's in preparation for a flood of immigrants that will result if (when) we start military actions in Latin America.

What I think the wall that Trump built is for

Mesa Grande Refugee Camp 1987

Call me cynical but I believe the wall is a prophylactic against a belief that there will be the same sort of flood of refugees that are migrating from Syria, the Middle East, and Africa into Southern and Western Europe that will eventually come streaming up from Central and South America when America goes rubblizing through Latin America, starting with Venezuela.
My assumption and opinion are that this is being built in advance of any of these sort of avoidable eventualities. The USA has yet to fully, effectively, foment Venezuela into a Civil War, which will also affect Colombia, Guyana, Brazil, and also Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, Belize, and Mexico—the land road from Venezuela to the United States. 

If you want to see the proof for this kind of reaction in action, between 1979 and 1992, 1.5 million Salvadoran refugees emigrated to the USA as refugees.

And, a wall could also be perceived as a prophylaxis against the aggressive migration that would be the result of South America and Central American climate collapse resulting from the drought, flooding, pestilence, famine, predicted by climate scientists.

It was organized. For every tent, there was a coordinator, a coordinator of healthcare and education. Everyone had to do something; it wasn't just about sitting around, but about doing something. If I knew how to do something, I could share it with someone else. There were some who were teachers and who taught children who didn't know. Those who had finished third and fourth grade were the teachers. The internationals did the same thing. They trained people to teach others. There was the religious part also, through the church, which was nice. We also had healthcare workers. I participated in that and liked it. Since then I have liked it so when I came here I became the health promoter. I was a health "guard" and visited people who had a fever. They gave me a thermometer to take people's temperature, and the doctor, who was there, Dr. Begoña, gave us talks every eight days. Some people still know her; she was a Spaniard. I think she may still be in the country. I don't know if she left for Spain. She trained us health guards in basic care. On how to detect a fever, how to take someone's temperature, how to treat diarrhea by going to the health booth to give people rehydrating liquid. So I felt we were pretty organized. We had food, cabbages. We had a nutrition center for children who were malnourished, and a tailor's shop. Well, there were a lot of jobs people did there, but as we would always say, the objective is not just to be there, but also to keep struggling. That is why I returned here with the group of people that was coming back.
