Border Wall System is going up at a blistering pace.
FYI, no weekly Border Wall report was issued this last Monday (which was expected to be in the 380’s).
Looks like the Administration is rounding to 400 miles, for the closing arguments of the election.
If we will not have 400 miles complete on election Day itself, it likely would be done within just a few more days, so rounding it off is pretty reasonable (and inevitable).
We blew through the 300 mile threshold without a commemorative event, due to COVID, so the 400th mile deserves some reflection.
The promise was kept on the Border Wall, and it is making a big difference.
Figured something was up due to no report yesterday. We are so close to 400 miles its fine by me if President Trump uses that figure. Probably won’t hit 500 miles by year’s end, but certainly by Inauguration Day.
Rounding to 400 miles complete, for a celebration on Thursday. Making the point for the closing arguments in the election - promises kept.
Border Wall System is going up at a blistering pace.
