Someone created GoFundMe to 'buy ladders' to counter fundraiser created to pay for Trump's wall

On Wednesday night, after coming across the news of a viral GoFundMe campaign that is raising $5 billion to pay for a border wall, the Twitter account @HoarseWisperer made a joke:

"Should we crowdsource money for ladders just to troll them?"

2. If any DUers are actually thinking of sending money to this joke campaign, as has already

been done by others to reach a total of $20,000, I suggest that if you really don't need that money, you could give it to the GoFundMe for the vet bills for sweet little dog Audrey, whose owner Miss Millie, a time DUer since 2003, has gone into the hole having her treated for what appears to be a tic-borne illness. They nearly lost Audrey, and though she is still sick, she does seem to be getting a bit better now.

Here is the link if you are interested in helping out:

3. If I have any spare money I'll give it to the SPLC or the ACLU

As I have done in the past.

There's enough humans suffering already.

4. I'd rather give to K.I.N.D. or the National Immigrant Justice Center.

So, if you happened to miss this in the wee hours this morning, a funny thing happened...

I made a joke about crowdfunding money for ladders to defeat Trump’s wall.

Then @cmclymer turned it into an actual GoFundMe sure to inflame the MAGA nuts in comical fashion.

If you read the GoFundMe, the money actually goes to a great organization helping immigrants.

There are no ladders.

We’re not really building ladders.

We’re raising money to help @RAICESTEXAS - and we’re having a little fun trolling the “Wall” crowd along the way.
