I LOVE This!

Trump visited the US border this week & said rock climbers tested his wall & agreed it cannot be climbed. But Mexicans have turned Trump's wall into a tourist attraction & are playing a game to see who can climb it the fastest, no ladders or ropes needed. The record is 45 seconds

1. I think Trump said "mountain climbers", not rock climbers.

There's a big difference. None of the many top climbers in the world
knew any other climbers who "tested" Trump's wall. What a farce.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

2. "... and Mexico will play on it!"

[MontanaMama]

3. Another MF45 fail!

May his name be associated with failure for generations.

[lastlib]

16. Failure and crime.

"Dump a trump"--what we do on the toilet. That's how I will remember him.

[mnhtnbb]

4. It's one giant grift. Follow the money

Some pal of 45--or maybe himself-- is making a bundle on this at taxpayer expense. Worthless in terms of security.

[pangaia]

19. Some steel company or something like that somewhere.. I saw something months ago

[Disaffected]

5. Is that a section of the wall they are actually building now??

I thought the actual wall, for one, has a smooth flat section on top (not that would prevent throwing a rope over or using a ladder).

There has go to be more to it than what is shown here(?).

8. They're not building anything yet. That's another trump lie.

Landowner and environmental claims have to be adjudicated in court before any building can take place and that will take years.

For instance, it was reported last week that a subdivision on the Rio Grande will have to be on the south side of the wall between it and the river because ya can't build a wall in the river, or even close to it so it won't be undermined by river water.

The homeowners are not happy. I'm sure they've contacted lawyers.

15. Some has started on Federal Lands here in Arizona.

We have construction on small parts threw what was small, wildlife sanctuary areas.
The tribes down here are putting up a fight against parts of the wall that would go threw their lands. It's has slowed the building down some but it is slowly getting built down here. And with the issues of what has been happening to the immigrants being held down here, no one is really paying attention.

[maddiemom]

17. THROUGH!

[StarryNite]

22. Wildlife Sanctuary Areas

It just kills me what it's going to do to the animals. Sickening.

6. Nothing like injecting medival technology into the 21st century.

Walls can be breached, climbed or tunneled under. That's just reality. Sensors, cameras, lasers etc. can do the job much more efficiently and at a fraction of the cost.

But trump fancies himself a builder, with many contacts in the industry btw, and multiple billions has been stolen from the military and FEMA funds and other places for wall funding.

That much moola, just ripe for misappropriation, kickbacks from contacts who get wall contracts, makes you wonder.

[smirkymonkey]

12. +1000

What a stupid, pointless waste of taxpayer money. Just to feed his bloated ego.

[NJCher]

13. he's so bullheaded

multiple billions has been stolen from the military and FEMA funds and other places for wall funding.

Why not take those multiple billions to try to help the people who want to cross the border have a better life? I know that part of the problem is the drought in Central America, but instead of this backwards, bullheaded approach of a wall, why not do what we can to face the problems and find a place or a way the people can survive?

This is the most horrible leadership. A real leader would look for solutions, not do stupid things like this idiot wall.

[Lady Freedom Returns]

7. It reminds me of a line out of a Meat Loaf song.

"The tallest wall is not tall enough to keep the smallest man from climbing", from the song " I'm Still Alive".

[Stuart G]

9. Thank YOU..!! That song says it all..and the picture in the original post..

[pandr32]

10. He says whatever he thinks up

Likely no tests were done. He would have wanted to be there and have a photo op.

[ancianita]

11. "Something there is that doesn't love a wall..." Robt Frost

[maddiemom]

24. I doubt Trump knows the quote or the poet.

Frost recited his poem, "The Gift Outright." at the JFK inauguration (at Kennedy's request). Frost was unable to see the poem he'd originally written for the occasion (Dedication) due to the glare. Two years later, at Frost's death, JFK issued a lovely tribute statement. Trump didn't have an "inaugural poet" but a parody showed up on line referring to Obama as a tyrant.

[ancianita]

25. Right. We could hide the nuclear codes in poetry and he'd never be able to find them.

"... I see him there
Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
He moves in darkness as it seems to me ... "

[maddiemom]

32. Good One!

[patphil]

14. Maybe it can be a new reality TV show.

Speed climbing the Great Wall of Trump!
Individual records, team records, king of the hill contests.
Awards for most creative approach.
And best costume.
The possibilities are endless!
Not to mention the group selfies at the top of the wall.

21. Great idea!

[Floyd R. Turbo]

18. Just a matter of time before it becomes "Obama's Wall"!

[pangaia]

20. AH ! Actually that is a good idea !!! Then he would tear it down !

Let's rename it !!!

OBAMA'S WALL !!!!

Pass it on....

[StarryNite]

23. LOL

[ancianita]

30. Funny AF

[lambchopp59]

26. Oh, this is rich. A nefarious plan is forming in my Mephistophelian mind....

I had to print this out...
To leave this conspicuously yet anonymously tor a particular workplace MAGAt who was spouting praises of our country's great leader who will save us from those "bad hombres" via that stupid wall some months back.
Hilarious on it's own, doubly so if I get to see the look on her face.

[packman]

27. Not a fair comparison

Expert Mountain climbers with all the equipment, ropes, and those spiky shoes vs. Mexicans motivated by proving Trump's an asshole.

[Blue Owl]

28. Well that settles it

Donald Trump is a stupid fuck who doesn't know jack shit

[Iliyah]

29. 3.6 billions from the military and their families

for wire fencing. Jerkoff wants another 3 billion from the military. Methinks he and his cronies and pocketing the monies.

[ancianita]

34. Taking budgeting of the military is another Article of Impeachment by Congress for abuse of power.

Obvious to everyone but the CiC is that the wall is not a matter of national security.

[Newest Reality]

31. He promised a wall...

and is delivering a fence.

The reason I am noting that is MAGAT mind. Wait...is that an oxymoron? Wait...was that a pun? Gee.

They were probably seeing something in their wee noggin's like, the Great Wall of China and all they get is a steel slat fence. Oh my! What an amazing and impenetrable barrier that is, too. To me, that's a big ripoff for the Trumpateers, but do they notice that?

Hey, let's spend spend billions more on it why don't we while the idea gets floated about removing homeless people?

[lindysalsagal]

33. If I lived there, I'd sell lemonaide and ice cream from a cart with a pole!
