Fox News chief anchor Shepard Smith on Wednesday disputed President Trump’s recent remarks about border wall construction, saying on air that "there is no new wall."

Smith's remarks were in response to a tweet from the president that said the wall is "going up very fast."

"So far, despite the president's claims to the contrary, there is no new wall," Smith said. "Existing barriers have been replaced. Same span. The total of repaired barrier is about 60 miles along that 2,000-mile border."

"The president also said in the tweet that the wall is going up rapidly. It is not. As we just reported, there's no new wall. Only replacement for walls which were in need of repair or upgrade. Those are the facts," Smith added.

Shep, sounds like a typical high power elite (in his mind).

Shep was about to pee his pants covering Katrina. He was sensationalist and way overboard during the coverage.

His "reporting" added to the belief the Bush administration's response was inept.

Shep’s boss needs to send him and a film crew on a two week assignment to travel the entire Southern border and report back daily about how there are no new wall systems.
