President Trump tweeted that his planned border wall along the U.S.-Mexico border was already under construction despite “obstruction” from congressional Democrats.

Said Trump: “The Wall is being built and is well under construction. Big impact will be made. Many additional contracts are close to being signed. Far ahead of schedule despite all of the Democrat Obstruction and Fake News!”

Glad it's almost done. We'll see all the unspent funds flow back to the Treasury, right?

Shouldn't the headline read something like; "Trump lies that Border Wall is 'Far Ahead of Schedule'"?

I mean, really media? Do we have to walk down to the border ourselves to see that Donnie Shit for Brains statement is complete BULLSHIT!!??

That's not "journalism"...that's stenography!

Hey People, Donnie DickWeed claims the border wall is far ahead of schedule...sorry, but we're too fucking lazy, or scared of being accused of being biased to point out that he's full of shit."

"Stay tuned as we report that the President states that the economy is the greatest economy in the history of the entire fucking world...sorry, but we're too busy trying to pull our heads out of trumps ass to verify if that is correct...so we're just going to report what he says and let you figure it out"

Signed, The Media
