The other day, not long after he signed the $1.3 trillion spending bill with piddling funding for "border security" (not the border wall Mexico was supposed to pay for), white supremacist con man Donald "Rump" Trump (a.k.a., "President Spanky") was trying to keep up the con for his mouth- breathing base:
The fact is that those pictures Rump used were of a 2- mile stretch of what was a scrap metal barrier in Calexico (dating back to the '90s) being replaced, an upgrade that had been planned for years.Great briefing this afternoon on the start of our Southern Border WALL! pic.twitter.com/pmCNoxxlkH— Donald J.

Last night on CNN, Republican strategist/ wit Rick Wilson had a good summary of what's going on here:
“The fundamental promise is ‘I will keep the brown people away from you,'. The modality is ‘I will build a wall. Mexico will pay for it.’ There is no wall. There is no funding for a wall. He’s got these four pieces of concrete, sample sections in California, which I call ‘Douche-henge.’ It’s a symbol for these people, these suckers that believe the wall is real.” (our emphasis)We've checked Rump's Twitter feed so you don't have to, and yes, there are many suckers who "think" the wall is going up and Rump is keeping his promise. (Sic transit gloria, America.)
Once again, to be clear, this is the totality of Rump's wall -- pardon -- "Douche- henge:"

In fact, the recently-passed omnibus spending bill does include full funding for a complete, full-length border wall.
In Jordan.
The Trumpanzees are not happy. "Suckers" is right.
"Douche-henge" is basically a set of wall swatches for Trump to fantasize over. In ten years those stupid slabs will be Trump's only monument and they'll be covered with anti-Trump graffiti.
Infidel -- I'm an optimist: I give it only 3 years for the wall swatches to become his political tombstones!
And the frustrating thing is Trump followers, shown with documented proof that this construction is not The Wall, would sneer and say that someone is trying to hurt Trump's image. They are devoted to him and believe every lie and line he delivers. They're the lost causes.
