The danger of an opaque border wall [View all]

"One of the things with the wall is you need transparency. You have to be able to see through it."

"As horrible as it sounds, when they throw the large sacks of drugs over, and if you have people on the other side of the wall, you don't see them. They hit you on the head with 60 pounds of stuff? It's over." ~President Trump speaking to supporters in Alabama Sept 22nd, 2017


Media report:

President Trump told a crowd of supporters in Alabama on Friday night that his proposed wall along the U.S.-Mexico border would be "see through."

You never care if your wall is opaque until you go and get hit by a flying 60 pound bag of cocaine? If there was any doubt that something is seriously wrong with our President, there shouldn't be any longer.
