Donald Trump’s debate strategy (“Trump’s new debate strategy? Practice, practice, practice,” Sept. 29) will require him to parry embarrassing questions.

Like, where will he build the wall along the Texas/Mexico border — which is some 1,200 miles of the Rio Grande. It is doubtful that Mexicans will want to build the wall on their side, and if we build it on our side, we deny ourselves access to the river. Maybe in the middle of the river?
