Hannah Natanson on WH fence: "It's COMPLETELY fenced in now, a significant addition from yesterday."



Hannah Natanson ✔@hannah_natanson

Okay I just walked the entire perimeter of the White House and the Ellipse, the park that abuts the executive mansion.

It’s COMPLETELY fenced in now, a significant addition from yesterday. Analysis from @JakeGodin suggests this is roughly 1.7 miles of fence.

Those are the only two choices I will accept: either he comes down with some terrible condition and gets hauled off in an ambulance, or he gets arrested, cuffed and stuffed.

WH ofiicials will say it's to protect the executive branch.

"We're under seige from ANTIFA and radicals (code for black people, young people, liberals)! See what we have to resort to? The President is the victim here. We will not go down without a fight with those lawless socialists who do not respect the American way of life!"

Uh-huh. Sure.

Bunker Boy doesn't know what being "under siege" is. If he's under siege there's no way he could possibly get his hamberders or KFC in there. He might be forced to eat a vegetable!

that was kinda my first thought when I saw it.. making it harder to kick the ASSFACE OUT.. but he has to leave the WH sometime.

Scaredy BLOTUS is AFRAID of We the People.. he's in Our House.

jeopardy.

Nothing like destroying the Mall, the Lincoln/Jefferson Memorials, the "swamp" to give some valuable real-estate to Friends.

Just like opening up all the National Refuges for exploitation. What's to stop them?

All his favorite epithets reflected back at him: weak, loser -- wrapped up into the classic chicken call.

When someone called Trump's fence "Babygate" my brain started singing "Babyface, you've got the cutest little baby face..." The new version just needs a few more lines...

I read conflicting things. That it is only up until June 10.

But really. What I'm guessing is no intention of relinquishing power after the election. What is this? The War of 1812?

Ugly fence, ugly man, ugly motives. Perhaps Trump thinks that if he loses in November, he can order martial law and no one can remove him from his bunker. He’ll be president for life—justvlike all his idols.
