Donald Trump just hit a wall

The Harris-Walz campaign is doing an admirable job pointing out the many reasons why Donald Trump is a disaster. However, sometimes Trump manages to accomplish that feat all on his own. Trump’s recent campaign stunt at the southern border is a prime example, to the point where even a supporter went on record to call it a joke.

Trump stood in front of what he thought was hiss border wall in Montezuma Pass, Arizona, proudly calling it the “Rolls-Royce of walls.” The thing is, not only was it not his wall, but it was a segment built nearly 16 years ago under the George W. Bush administration, with a few funded sections that carried over into the Obama presidency, according to a report from The Washington Post.

As if that’s not embarrassing enough, after Trump complained about the unused pieces lying on the ground, Border Patrol union leader Paul A. Perez referred to them as “Kamala wall” and the completed part “Trump wall.” Not only was the “Trump wall” a product of his Republican predecessor, but the “Kamala wall” was actually a collection of expensive slats that the Trump administration procured but never used.

Even John Ladd, who owns land close by and supports Trump, couldn’t hold back from calling Trump’s latest move “kind of a joke.” We’re all old enough to remember when Trump would excite crowds by the mere mention of building a wall. Now, Trump is traveling the country assigning luxury-brand names to other Presidents’ creations while his own failed efforts lie in a nearby heap. You’ve got to imagine Trump’s campaign managers are wishing they could have convinced the cretin to stay at Mar-a-Lago for a few more rounds of golf.
