(2,750 posts)Just like Trump!
I saw a live stream a few months ago where the streamer was on a beach in Mexico. There was a portion of the wall there with children climbing all over it, jumping back and forth.
That whole stunt was just that! Red meat for the cult.
I listen to Michelangelo Signorile on XM occasionally and he welcomes Trumpfucks to call in. He gets some of the craziest assholes calling in
They have a couple talking points to parrot, but once those are defeated they resort to name calling. Their arrogant laugh usually follows to buy time while they try and think up that next crushing insult.

(16,254 posts)We're still paying tons of money on that stupid wall. Shame on him. Most contracts probably went to his friends/donors.
How can anyone support this bastid?

(70,695 posts)on private property. I think it was the Minutemen, but whenever I describe something without a link that I saw/heard I seem to attract the most vociferous flamers, demanding the highest standards of stuff that will never meet their outrage.
Another bit of set-up here, the Univision news staff are top notch professionals.
So the reporter was interviewing the "president" of the MM, who was a window dressing Latino - you know, how Repukes pick a Minority figurehead to cover their racism.
And the interview went smoothly along, questions/answers. Towards the end the camera panned away from the 2 faces, slowly past the stretch of fence, slowly past some desert landscape, and ended up at large pallets of paper sacks of hundreds of pounds each of concrete mix.
The bags were huge, stacked neatly, with the logos on the sides of the bags all perfectly aligned and visible.
And each logo stacked up read: "HECHO EN MEXICO" (made in Mexico) or "PRODUCTO DE MEXICO" (product of Mexico) - I forget which, before my flamers jump me. Like this:
HECHO EN MEXICO HECHO EN MEXICO
HECHO EN MEXICO HECHO EN MEXICO
HECHO EN MEXICO HECHO EN MEXICO
HECHO... etc.
The reporter didn't verbally call attention to the irony, let the excellent camera work do the talking.
