Is the seatpost the correct size? The clamp bottoming-out suggests it isn't. As does being able to wrap it in tape and still get it in.
And assembly paste (not to be confused with anti-theft paste) is the preferred method to prevent correctly fitting seatposts slipping, not tape.
Grit yo shit to turn security paste to assembly paste
Don't you have livestock for that?
