**Santa Claus is coming to the MMP!! Trump wall solution** ‘I will keep the MMP safe. In fact, I’m the only one who can keep the MMP safe. Santa… You know ‘Santa’ is another name for ‘Satan’, right? Satan is evil. Santa breaks into people’s houses. He’s corrupting your children, making them think that they should get everything for free. We’ll build a wall around MMP. It will be a beautiful wall, with slats. It will be high enough he can’t fly over it. Which he shouldn’t be flying a sleigh anyway. You think that’s safe? Do you _want_ a foreigner carrying who knows what flying over your house? Give me a hundred trillion dollars.’ – President Donald J. Trump, Savior of Real Americans ---
