Donald Trump: ‘The Wall Is Getting Designed Right Now’

President Donald Trump said his proposed wall on the Southern border of the United States is currently in the design phase.

“The wall is getting designed right now,” he asserted on Wednesday during a speech to law enforcement officials at the Major Cities Chiefs Association Winter Conference in Washington D.C.

Trump acknowledged that some people said that he was “only kidding” on the campaign trail when he promised to build a wall that he repeatedly described as “big and beautiful.”

“I wasn’t kidding. I don’t kid. I don’t kid,” he said, describing the wall as a great tool to help reduce drugs and crime coming over the border.

Trump again compared his wall to the one that Israel has, pointing out that they are very effective if done properly.

Last month, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu signaled his support for the wall, calling it a “great idea.”

Add lots of amenities for the BP: AC barracks, big screen TVs, weight rooms, etc.
Single vets looking for work, hire them on.
Nothing but the best for our guys, and all on Mexigo’s tab.

These gators look hungry. Someone will feed them with meat saturated with poison. Better have sensors and cameras.

I’m almost surprised California doesn’t build the wall to keep people in. Folks are leaving that once wonderful state. Regretfully they are moving to Colorado.

I hope it has a billowing roll of razor wire at the top, 6-feet tall and 8 feet deep. It should also have an outward-sloping edge that begins several feet before the top and its walls absolutely devoid of toeholds. I’m trying to figure out how best to prevent tunnels.
