Kelso: If Trump wants to build a wall in Texas, build it around Austin


Michael B. Raiford, an Austin designer who works with theater, ballet and opera groups, came up with some great suggestions for a wall around Austin, including a Welcome to Leslie Land wall (as a tribute to Leslie Cochran, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie_Cochran), a picket fence of an army of Leslie mannequins.

Is there anybody out there who just loves the bejeepers out of Donald Trump more than Donald Trump?

I’m glad he’s running his own parade, because I’m not marching in it. Trump wants to put a wall along our Mexican border to keep out the rapists, pillagers and plunderers. Since when was sneaking into the U.S. to land a fruit-picking gig plundering?

Let’s have a show of hands: How many of you want to yank grapes for a living? I sense a knuckle shortage.

So the Bronx Buffoon of Bombast wants to erect this wall. Not only is this a waste of concrete, he wants to put the wall in the wrong place.

The signtaped to it said "Environmental protection fund. All your donations go towards building an escape proof fence around Houston."
