Luke O’Neil started a page Thursday to, in his words, “build a giant escalator over the wall.”

Impractical.

An Escalator requires electricity which is generally unavailable at the places illegals cross the border.

A better idea is to build the illegals a few trebuchets.

Then all you have to do is teach the illegals to tuck and role and launch them over the wall. QED

😉

If they are powered by Solar Panels, the invaders will only be able to come in during daylight hours. Look how much we’ll save on Border Patrolmen.

Here’s the problem. A wall will endure. Militarization would end with the next Democrat president.

Escalator success so far:

$5,225 of $200.0M goal Raised by 270 people in 2 days

Ladders on the other hand is doing far better:

$125,365 of $100.0M goal Raised by 5,704 people in 2 days

We the people will build the wall is far exceeding both liberal stupidity combined:

$15,086,564 of $1.0B goal Raised by 247,045 people in 5 days

I would like to see the full militarization of the southern border . Anyone attempting to sneak in gets shot

Me too.

We can elect a Congress that agrees with us, or change our form of government.

Only if you build a good one.

Get the escalators to be built by that famous Southwest Company Acme (Roadrunner) and the passengers will find themselves returning far faster than they left!

Not very efficient. Crowdsource funds to plant land mines at the bottom of the escalators. Every escalator would only be used once.

Maybe another one for them. Helicopter drop jet packs for the illegals to fly over the wall.

It’s a metaphor, you know.

To put an escalator to help the ILLEGALS get over the wall you'd need to build it in Mexico. How are you going to build it? You going to trespass into Mexico? On our side..the EPA might say it will endanger the American Desert Wildcat, so it'll be tied up for a few 100 years...😁
