It bums me out that "Build The Wall" is a majority view. Because it doesn't make any fucking sense.

There's been fencing between most navigable parts of the U.S. and Mexico for the better part of a century.

Trump was like "Fencing isn't enough. We need to build a WALL. A big, beautiful, concrete wall."

ICE was lowkey like "Dude, we can't see through a wall. We can't shoot through a wall. A wall makes everything worse for us."

So Trump designed: a fence. Posts separated by open space. Literally a fence. And he got some funding to shore up a few miles of old fencing and he was like "Look! I built a wall!"

And I, and every person with actual sanity, said: sir, that is a little bit of fencing, that you put down where there was already fencing.

"Build The Wall" is a slogan embraced by Americans who don't actually know anything about anything. It's a bumper sticker designed to attract the dipshit vote.
