FIRST OF ALL -- IT IS 2,000 MILES LONG.
Logistics are the first real problem.
And I am assuming a continuous wall -- so you need to allow for seismic and wind sheer movement.
We are not talking basement walls on spread footings -- that is underground work.
What you propose a cat excavator or two and a couple of labourers with cutting torches could breach in 30 minutes or less.
Just a another half assed idea

What's going on here. I said it would be cast in place... formed and poured in its final resting place.
You have no idea what a moment footing is? That is how this very simple wall would be supported so doesn't topple over.
And cast in place, or pre-fabbed, same dimensions. There is not a miracle that occurs in a plant that cannot be accomplished in the field.
Still trying to figure out your source of dimensions. And wall is around 1000 miles... natural barriers make up the rest.
