Trump: "We built the wall. Just as I promised !"

And the crowd cheered !

30 seconds listening to Fox ... and I left.

According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection of the 1,954 mile long border,
415 miles had been ‘built’ by December 2, 2020 ,
almost all replacing outdated or dilapidated fencing.
