Will a wall truly help the US?

Well, a lot of people already die due to illegal immigration, so it's not like this isn't already a reality. It's just really easy for criminal organizations (mostly drug cartels because Americans can't quit crack) move into the country. Not that a wall is a perfect solution to stop that from happening, but it would certainly make it harder. That's why it's a lazy solution and people can gravitate to it.

Is the drug issue really that big of a deal? I feel as if people exaggerate the drug crisis.

 

Also, if we build the wall withot reconsideration, a lot of damage to our country(and peace with mexico) will disappear. We don't need tensions at all. 

While building a wall is definitely huge "FU" to Mexico, it's not like the US doesn't have the spot to bargain from. That's kinda why Trump is so adamant about it. The US has all the leverage in this situation.
