That's going to be a mighty long wall. Much longer than the one Trump promises Mexico will pay for. Whose paying for your wall?


Rich people who voted for Trump, probably.

LOL I didn't say it was a tall wall.   Pool floats?


LOL. That would work -- and be affordable too.

It's about as well thought out as Trumps plan.  The difference.   No one actually believes me, whereas millions of idiots believe Trump.


I find it hard to believe that anyone actually believes a wall would work -- let alone Trump's "Mexico is going to paying for the ugly and ineffective thing" bit. To make a wall work at all you'd need to arm and patrol it like the Berlin Wall. East Germany found that to be expensive and not completely effective -- and that was for a relatively short wall.

Speaking of which, as part of the gig that's brought me to Ottawa, I'm posting photos on my Facebook page that are for public viewing:

Great with a pen, and pretty handy with a lens too.  Great shots, sir.  :thup:
You have my sword
And my shield
And my... um... slacks.

And then there're the who-knows-how-many tunnels there are out there.
Which I pointed out to a Trumpster just recently.  The response: dig a moat.
To which I pointed out that the Rio Grande is a bigass moat.  The response: dig deeper.
Never mind that a greater portion of new illegals don't come from Mexico.
.....

Real-world solutions: good.
Medieval non-solutions: not so much.
You have my sword
