A Mexican congressman has gone to new heights to mock President Trump’s plans for a “big beautiful wall,” in a stunt designed to show how easy it is to climb the oft-touted structure.

This guy has performed a very useful service. He has shown us what kind of wall does not work. We should use this knowledge to improve the design of the wall, so that the new and improved version won’t be scalable.

Gracias, senor!

What are they going to do once they get over if they can’t get a job, enroll their children in our schools or use our welfare programs?

In Mexico, the walls surrounding the family compound are typically topped with broken glass embedded in concrete.

Our policies, as a country, are none of your business. Next time I hope they shoot you off of it.

It looks like the only thing he could climb is a bar stool at happy hour. Are there any videos of him actually climbing? The only video I saw was him on top of the fence lecturing in Spanish.

Someone should have bumped it with a large truck while they were up there.

I wonder if they actually climbed up there or used a man lift which is now out of the picture shot.

“President Trump! Put some sharp spikes on top of that beautiful wall!”

Or broken glass like the Mexicans have on their walls.
