Actual new wall: 0 miles. Replacement fence is ~450 something miles, under 10 miles of actual new fence where nothing existed in the past.
I don't see the fact that no new wall was built as being a big deal. We've had a border with Mexico for a couple of hundred years now. I would imaging that the places that are the highest risk for crossing are places that have had some sort of structure/fence/wall already. I'd rather see the barbed wire fence outside of El Paso be replaced with a twenty-foot concrete wall than see some big wall built 35 miles from the nearest road outside of Asswipe, Tx.
Having said that, I wouldn't want to defend most of the behaviors Trump has engaged in during his time as president.
