Around the White House. Did Mexico pay for it? I am not surprised in the least by this. Only Trump cultists are not surprised, they expected it. And he claims he did not order it. > **[Flash bangs and fury: Behind the fortress walls in a defining week for Trump...](https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/06/politics/donald-trump-fences-george-floyd-protests/index.html)** > > On Monday, the percussive bang of flash grenades echoed in the Rose Garden and an acrid odor from chemical dispersant wafted over a presidential photo opportunity. ---

I’m thinking Mexico will pay for a wall to keep US citizens out. ---

Damn it, Biden. Get yourself a bullhorn, join the protesters at the fence, and shout “Mr. T\*\*\*p, TEAR DOWN THIS WALL!” ---

Biden can’t shout at all, even in a megaphone, and this is all that bothers me. ---

I love the fact that Trump is gradually fortifying the people’s house because he’s scared. Well,Love isn’t quite the right word. In fact, the White House should not be fortified because the President is scared of the constituency. However, I appreciate the irony of the soi-disant strong man cowering. November’s coming bunker boy. Tick-tock. ---

The fencing is turning into a monument to BLM and the people who have been harmed by racist police and policies. This also makes me happy. ---

So his response to the hiding-in-the-bunker taunts that angered him is to install a fence to hide behind? I knew the guy was a fucking moron, but c’mon now. ---

Make the fence bigger and stronger. Catapult Quarter Pounders (no pickles, extra ketchup) over it and be done with him. ---
