Trump Claims That Wall Around White House Is to Prevent Staff from Quitting En Masse

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Lashing out at critics who have charged him with building a wall around the White House to protect himself from peaceful protesters, Donald Trump claimed on Friday that the purpose of the wall is to prevent staffers from quitting en masse.

“The wall is not to keep people out. It’s to keep people in,” Trump angrily told reporters. “If anyone thinks he’s going to quit this White House, he’s going to have to climb over a ten-foot wall first.”

Trump added that he was considering invoking the Insurrection Act of 1807 to put down further rebellions by the Secretary of Defense, Mark Esper.

“Between the wall and the Insurrection Act, no one is getting out,” he said. “No one.”

1. "The Onion" vs. "Borowitz Report" reminds me of the home run duel between

Sosa and McGwire in the '98 season - they just keep pushing each other to new heights!!
