1) He doesn't seem to understand there is already a culture of criminality.
2) I don't think any temporary infrastructure is going to make it any easier to get across the border.
3) The Israelis are shutting down the tunnels. That is the reason for the recent protests at the fence. The Israelis have all but ended the Gaza incursions under the fence. So the argument that they could get through with lots of tunnels is false.
4) A wall doesn't hinder trade. That is already going across legal checkpoints. Again, another false argument.

He makes better arguments about using the military, but that's not the topic you posted.
